Well........let's see here.........I would need an internet connection, enough money to support myself, well.........you get the picture. I'd love to move out and away from my sisters' messes and live in a clean motorhome of my own. Maybe I better start saving up........

I see myself as living alone (maybe with a pet or two). TO me getting married would be having a roommate who snored forever. It would just be too much of an invasion of my privacy. I want to be able to do what I want (when I'm not at work assusming I ever get a job [I just graduated last Saturday and no I have not sent out any resumes yet]). I don't want to have to compromise on what to eat or when to eat or what to watch on TV. I need my space to just unwind and destress and just be me.

Providing I had sufficient resources covered such as essential needs (like access to a nearby supermarket), utilities, communications, etc, I'd easily live alone and adapt. But considering that I have a partner, I would love to live with her in our own place instead of alone though.

I would want to live alone, in the sense of having an apartment with no roommates. However, I would want to see my friends at least a few times a week, either my having them come over, going somewhere with them, or coming to their places.

I have lived alone before but I didn't do too well. :oops: I'm better off living with someone else so that I get everything done that I'm meant to.

I've been living alone since early 2004. I moved out because I was living in a rather verbally abusive environment with my parents and I just couldn't take it, it was breaking me. Given the choices living with family, and living alone I would say I could not live with family...Never again.

I would prefer a roommate, however.

I don't mind living alone, but I'd prefer to have at least a cat or other pet that would be great in an apartment.

Really, for the most part I feel pretty much alone all the time anyways, even with other people around.

So, it wouldn't be much of a change, save that it would be somewhat less annoying.

I think I'm quite the same.

I enjoy being by myself for most activities, but seeing someone I know such as a family member and having a few conversations a day is something I guess I 'need', otherwise I feel like I'll go crazy.

Once I have money, have a degree etc... etc... I would like to live in my own house. Whether that is with a loved one or on my own I don't know, only time will tell.

I lived with parents until late 20's then lived for a year with roommate. Hated the roommate situation being told I couldn't have friends come over but her girlfriend could stay over night. Plus her snoring, her constant bitching, her delegating all nasty chores to me, eating my groceries and having to deal with her neurotic dog. Not to mention I have allergies to perfumey things and smoke so makes it difficult to live with anyone. I have lived the past 7 years alone with my kitty and like it that way. I wouldn't mind finding a partner, adopting kids and living together. But only if its someone who will be nice to me. So far haven't met anyone that even half-way fits that bill.

I manage quite well, on my own. I have everything I need. I'll have to deligate my Grocery Shopping to an assistant when my mum gets too old to help me with that, though. Otherwise, I can manage. I hate going through large Supermarkets by myself.
