It depends where you spend most of your time. If you go to watering-holes and parties a lot, alone would be just fine. But if you don't, I wouldn't suggest living alone, it can get pretty miserable, and have just one roommate can make a huge difference. It also depends on how much you like your roommates, you can really grow to resent someone for almost no reason if you live with them long enough....

I would suggest at least one or more roommates. A multiple income “family” certainly helps reduce ones financial burden with things such as rent, food, and entertainment costs. The value you get from the interpersonal companionship (depending on the people) is invaluable. This “family” is also a safety net if for some reason you come up short on cash one month. I would assume you would be more likely to get sympathy from your roommates then you would from the “Slumlords of Rolla”.

i would say since you're asking the question, stick with 1 or 2 roommates. definitly DO NOT live alone. you will regret it for many reasons:

1)costs more
2)loneliness
3)no person to wake you up
4)the opportunities are unlimited

You give up too early. Roomate+Subtle Webcam+Website=Live Porn+Free Beer money

But seriously, roomates are a better way to go. Just fucking talk to one another and you'll be fine.

Example:
Me: Hey roomie, the girlfriend is coming down this weekend, know what that means?
Roomie: I'm sleeping in the living room again?
Me: Fuck yea. And don't come in if the door's closed or i pound your ass.

Very true, everyone in our house has their own room. I've never really lived alone so I can't say for sure that it is bad, but living with people is nice. It is a lot harder to get bored, and it is cheaper. Just make sure you chose your roomate wisely.

I have reached a point where..if i see my roomate's face..it aNNoys me!!

Yeah..We dont have seperate rooms+he is of my age so he has this mean character of troubling the other one and laughing...
Ex:The other day he had silenced the house phone...just because i had told him that I am suppose to get a important call!!!

When that happens..it makes you stop and rethink whether a roomate is worth living with or not.Always there is a advantage of saving money with a roomate..but is it worth having some extra money without peace of mind???
