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 prefer live alone because alone life is most powerful and knowing himself.

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.
