I prefer to live alone and enjoy the serenity and comfort of my own home, Just read some books and do all the things I love. In times of boredom I could host a house party and invite friends to come over. I think this kind of set up works for me.

Do you prefer to share a house or live alone?

I prefer live with my family or friends, because it's very funny and you don't feel alone. You can shere house chores like cook, lundry, clear the bedroom's many things, also we can talking about some problem or ask for advice.

When you be alone in your house, it's true that you could feel more free but so could feel sad.

Actually, I prefer to live alone because I feel comfortable when I am living alone. I don't need anyone to clean up the house. i can play games every time I want. However, when i share a house with roommates who also have benefits, we share the bill and talk about life and the future. Sometimes they can help me when i face difficulties or am sick when i live far away from home.

I prefer living alone, because i feel more comfortable living alone without violating my privacy, and that gives me much time to accomplish many tasks.

Although I like living alone, I can't effort bills and other expensive thing. I am also a little afraid of anything when I am alone. And having a roommate is kind of a friend. In short, I would prefer to share .

Shared houses are common these days. To decrease the bills and rent expenditure, individuals live in shared houses nowadays. Although living alone is better than living together, sharing the bills and rent is a good choice when people don't make enough money.
