    Default Do you prefer to live alone or with other people?

    Do you prefer to live alone or with other people? Does it make a difference for your preferences if the people you might live with are a significant other, children, parents, other relatives, friends, co-workers, just folks you met through a housing share service or university recommendation?

    I used to think I would like living with other people ... I never had a problem living with my parents or a significant other. Then circumstances changed and I was living with a group of people for awhile. I wouldn't take back any experiences I had but I did realize something about myself, I need to be alone.

    The reason I was able to live so comfortably with my parents/significant other was because they are extremely quite ... and don't intrude. It was like living by myself

    While living with others I discovered that most people are disturbed by quite and do all they can to avoid it. -This is not a good fit for me.

    So I guess I am able to live with other people ... just very silent ones.

    Alone.

    Unless it's a SO.

    I like a lot of people, and I can get along with them.
    And I could probably live with them also.
    I had roommates in college, and just after.
    I got along ok with all of them, but there
    were always problems with bills, food, etc.

    There is a certain freedom you have when living alone.

    You can walk around naked, fart when you want,
    clean up when you want to, make as much sex noise
    as you want, turn up the volume on your porn,
    and so on. You can't really do all that stuff with
    roommates, unless you really want to piss them off.

    I like to live with people who leave me alone

    i like having people around to talk to and stuff, and left unattended I have a tendancy to slip into crazy hermit mode. But I really do need some alone time. it drives me nuts when people think that your time alone is really just to escape them.

    Aloneeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Without doubt.

    Maybe one other person, maybe. But no more if available.

    All that aside, how do you feel about quiet?

    Me, I'm way too territorial. I've never lived well with assigned roomates and the one time I lived well with someone in my eyes, she wasn't digging it.

    It amazes me that with your general love, tolerance and joie de vivre for the rest of the human race, you wouldn't get along with other people. I'd love to make roommates with you a reality show. The first "bloodstained outfit" shocker would be the cliffhanger of the first episode, really reel em in.

    I really want to go flatting, but I can't. It sucks hard, but I have to save money or I'll never be able to move in with my fiancee, and that certainly won't be flatting. (She's the most introverted person I know, it drives me mad.)

    I long ago abandoned the ridiculous notion that three or more people can live together harmoniously for longer than six months... and by harmoniously, I mean completely gentle-voiced and spat-free. Humans have an unhealthy addiction to conflict that can't seem to remiss itself for very long. Occasionally, the camaraderie is still worth the conflict, but the easiest way to make sure you always get along in your home is to keep the population down to just yourself, and perhaps a significant other.

    With the significant other.
    AND MY AMINALS!!!!

    I hated living with my mom and siblings, hence why i moved out when i was 16.


    I live with my bf and roomies.
    But as i get older, i realized that partying is fucking rad(dah), but cleaning up after a bunch of drunken hoodlums really gets on my nerves.

    Im buying a house in december, yes a big step.
