I have been for the past week, the first time in my 29 years of existance.. I like the freedom, but it gets quiet sometimes.. a little too quiet. I have people over allot I guess and there's hundreds of pubs and things to do within walking distance, but I don't know what to make of this feeling.. it's like people, can't live with them, can't live without them..

I love living alone.

I did for a year or so. It was great. It got a bit quiet sometimes, but I actually came to enjoy it. I especially loved being able to go out knowing that when you came home the place would be exactly as you left it.

Ha ha, true.. I had a few people over tonight and was trying to keep things clean and organized as they were getting drunk.. I like having control over me and what I do.. Probably why I am single, though

Getting laid every now and then is the trick.

i've been living by myself off and on since college. i really like it...not having someone freaking out over dishes in the sink or whatever...cause sometimes i don't feel like cleaning right away!

my only issue with it is the fact that it's sooooo expensive!!

Yeah, I know that feeling. Did a lot of running around cleaning up after other people when I lived in share houses. Sometimes it was ok and sometimes it was painful! :eek:

Can't help with the single thing. The few times I've lived with a guy I got to be chief cook and bottle washer. Not really how I wanted it to be. It must be the ridiculous idea I have that we share household chores 50/50. :rolleyes: It just never seemed to catch on.

Know the feeling.

One year left of grad school, then i get my own place. I can't wait.

I've been living alone for 16 years. It's more expensive than living with others. That's really the only negative. If dorm life was any indication, it takes me about 6 months to get sick of someone, so living by myself is the best option.

The positive is it's my space, my time within my space.

i need to get out of my parents house and get my own place. i dont even care how much it costs.

not that i dont get along with my parents, i am just wasting away right now.

i lived alone for my senior year of college. i enjoyed it, though it probably wasn't the ideal time to do so. i felt a little isolated and i was also in the midst of some serious problems with addiction and depression. it was a tough year for me. however, this past summer i essentially lived alone as my roommate was working in a different city and i LOVED it. loved coming home and having nothing to do but what i wanted. i have plenty going on in my life to keep me busy, so i doubt i'd mind the quiet. it was never a problem for me... i'd pop on a dvd or the stereo or just read a book. loved it. i wish i lived alone now :(

since college i've lived alone (save a couple years) and i wouldn't have it any other way....:)

I lived alone from about age 22-30... I actually really liked it. I love my wife and wouldn't change anything about my situation now, but I loved having a place to myself for those years.

I lived alone for my last semester of college, and I mostly lived alone for the year before that because a few weeks after school began, my roommate started dating and essentially moved in with this creepy guy that she ended up marrying by the summer. Ahem...I digress. Anyway, I really loved living alone. It was nice. But, I tend to be very lazy about picking up after myself when I'm living alone.

Now I live with a 27 yr old man and a 17 month old girl. The girl is very messy, but at least my other roommate helps me pick up after her. They're cool, but it's still nice to have time alone when they go out together and I stay home once in a while.
