I enjoyed
I prefer living alone since it is make more convenient and secure. Overwise if I can’t afford the rent I will be ok with sharing my flat and having housemate.
Actually I prefer living alone but sometimes I feel lonely so it would be great if you have a roommate or two
Do you prefer to share a house or live alone?
I think I prefer to live alone. But I want a bigger house with a big table, because I want to invite my friends to come and have dinner together. We will make food together and talk happily.
i prefer to live alone but I boring if I stay alone a long time
Both have their own disadvantages, but I can tolerate more on having a housemate. I think I just like the idea of coexisting with other humans, doing our own thing without necessarily needing to socialize everytime. Well it still depends on the kind of housemate I'm having of course but I think it would be nice.
My preference is living alone ,because it's more comfortable than sharing my home with others.
and for my privacy, at the same time I like tranquillity.
I prefer to have an ensuit room and I am sure that sharing a house with a roommate can be enjoyable
I prefer to live alone.
both living alone and sharing a house have their own advantages and disadvantages. sharing a house with a roommate can be enjoyable, especially when the person is of a similar age and has common interests. in this case you can share ideas, do activities together, and avoid feeling lonely. it also makes daily life more fun and helps the time pass quickly.
on the other hand, living alone provides more privacy and independence. sometimes a roommate may have bad habits, be annoying or simply not share the same interests, which can make life uncomfortable. in such situations, having your own space is much better.
in conclusion, the choice really depends on the personality of the roommate and the lifestyle you prefer .
