Yes. I like to share house with someone. I don't like to live alone. Because it is boring to live alone for me. When I live with someone it is good for me to know new people and have new experiences.

I do prefer share house with my family. Nowadays the houses have not enough room for a easy living.

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.
