I prefer both of them. I want to share my house with my family.They always come the house and do what they want. But I don't want to share with friends they just come my house to drink or eat after that I clean their garbages.

I enjoyed to share house when I was studying in a college, though currently I prefer live alone.

Actually, I do prefer to live alone in the house or with my family, not with strangers. However, I accept the fact that sometimes you have to live with strangers because of the circumstances of life. Once, I lived with a colleague in work in the same apartment.

be honest, I prefer to live alone, it doesn't mean I am a selfish person but normally I find no problem to live alone and I enjoy myself a lot when I stay alone. That's all
