I have experience of both. I think it is better to share a house with a person. I like discussing with persons, i feel anxious when i am alone.

No i don't, If it's not necessary but i love to live with family. And yes i have experience of both . It's good if roommate or housemates are nice otherwise it's not really good. Sharing is more economical and social.
