I prefer live alone. I feel better alone in house that to share with another person. Sometimes is good share with others but in general I prefer live alone.

I don´t know!. On the one hand, I prefer to share a house, because I can meet people. And for the other side, I want privacy and freedom.

I am from Myanmar, Rakhine State. As Myanmar traditional, we live all family members together. So, we live parents, brother, sister, my spouse and daughter at the same house. It is no problem. We feel happy and warm. At the dinner, we can share our experience and difficulties from work. I always get good advice from my parents. I have two cats; one Tom and one queen. I have also a small garden. I have some best friends, gathering and having fun. How great my life is! By the way, I don't like to stay alone. It is so lonely and boring.

I prefer to share a house or an apartement with other people. Because living alone with me is very sad. When i was a student, i lived with others 9 female house mates in a room of a student residence. The room was not clean and not big, some people were not tidy , there were 5 bunk beds and only a toillet and a bathroom for 10 people and so we were not confortable. But we were very happy , because we got on well et we shared also many things of life and they are really my best friends although we dont live in the same city now. Each year, we try to gather to remind our good memories

I prefer to share my house with my family. I can help them and they can help me something. They can make me happy when I'm boring.

I definitely prefer to live alone or with people i get on well. It´s tricky though because on one side, sharing a house is cheaper, and living with others can teach you many things, but on the other side you have to tolerate many things like people being untidy or dirty, inviting other people to the house, etc.

Be honest, I prefer to live alone or with my family. because if I live with others it will be complicted for me. Such as if we have any problem between us, we could not of keeping our relationship together, and selfish, seems like concerned with each other's lives.
