I did not have a chance to either live alone or in a shared house with strangers before, but I think living alone could make you more comfortable since you don't have to share your living space with others, such as the kitchen room or living room, and you will feel free to anything convenient without concerns about whether it will bother your roommates or not. However, there are also disadvantages of not staying in a shared house; for example, no shared room means no shared rent, so, you will have to pay the whole cost, including rent and bills, which could make your wallet thinner. Additionally, no roommates means your opportunities for social interaction will be reduced.
Generally, whether living alone or in a shared house is based on one's preferences. As my priority in living is freedom and comfort, I will choose to live alone if I can afford the cost.
If given the choice, I would prefer to share a house but with my family members. If I were to share a house with people I do not know, I would prefer to live alone. I think that living with strangers can be uncomfortable especially when you have varying preferences.
Yes, I was admitted to the English Language class at ICD Institute. My aim is to learn from the basics to advance and then take the IELTS test but unfortunately, I did not learn as I want. Luckily, I searched on chatGPT for English Language websites they listed the British Council website on top. I liked it very much because all the learning materials are well organized and I learned a lot.
i would prefer to live alone than share a house because you know when you share house it's quite complicated when you live with someone. besides i am an introvert person and pretty quite person.
As long as my experience, i would prefer to alone. To be alone is more comfortable than share with other even they are closefriend. That's so many drama that i had if share with my friend. LOL
i don't prefer to share my house with stranger people because i don't know everything about them past or what is the way they are thinking . therefor i prefer to share my house with someone i know him very well like my friends or my relatives and i will feel comfortable with them.
Finally, I wish everyone a good day
Do you prefer to share a house or live alone?
Of course I prefer to share a house. Our apartment is too much small. The apartment has a simply bedroom, a lovely living room where we spend more time. A kitchen and a bathroom. I've been living with my wife and I love to share space with her.
Currently, I shared my flat with 3 housemates. Shared bathroom, kitchen and living room. There is parking and no pet. We all are employees so we met at night. It's ok with housemates because rental fee is high in our country. But when I get high earn one day I will live with my pets. I believe I can make it.
That depends on my income, if I can afford to rent a house to live alone,
I prefer to do that instead of share a house, but if I can’t afford to rent
a house by my own, I don’t have any trouble to share a house.
Thanks for the lesson.
Great site!
