Come to think of it - that's how I felt about my biological sister a good part of the time and there was just one of her.
You are right more than you can even know. I lived in 3 years, and the last year I had a single, probably for the health and welfare of the rest of the house. I don't regret having lived in that year, and it may serve to nudge you out of the nest, as it were, but it definitely gets to be a strain.
