Thread: "уже"

How to translate the following into English?

Если у женщины есть сосед по комнате -- одинокий мужчина средних лет, то по-русски это будет уже не соседство, а сожительство.

I'm strongly confused with this "уже", how to translate it properly here? And, of course, I don't know, how to translate сожительство with all the nuances of sense (such as negative colouring ), but I think I won't have to use this word very often in future (at least, I hope )

Hmm something like:

If a woman is sharing a room with a single middle-aged man, then in Russia this is already called living togther, and not a roommate.

уже не = no longer, not any more

сожительство = cohabitation, living together
