Can I live (non-carnally) with someone of the same sex?

Scripture... does not approve of homosexuality.
On the other hand, I know of no prohibition against loving (in a non-carnal manner!) and living with one's parents or siblings, and certainly many, many people spend years of their lives living with one or more thereof. In some cases, "siblings" might even be adopted. Historically, cohabitation of persons of the same sex is hardly unusual (schools, militaries, monasteries/nunneries).
This got me wondering... I can't offhand think of any scripture that forbids living in the same household with a person of the same sex, *provided* that one is not engaged in... inappropriate activities.
*Does any denomination* teach that this is forbidden, even among people that "love" (but not carnally!) one another? (Does Scripture?)
