They say humans are social animals, they can't live alone. But you can live pretty well by yourself. I tell ya, instead of feeling alone in a group, it's better to have real solitude all by yourself.

I have had people live with me and I have lived alone before and I must say it's 5000000× better to live alone in your own separate apartment



You read when you want to




You watch the channel you want on dstv



Your babe will have her freedom(before I got married my babes and I have sex everywhere in the house and she walks around in her panties grin )



Your stuffs last longer



And you have less headache





Even your relationship with your friends is better. Once a friend starts living with you he will inconvenient you in many ways and it may later strain the friendship.



There's no better friendship than when you're living separately and doing well in life. You can just put a call to him and hang out then retire to your respective places

living alone is awesome, when I feel bored I usually play my pes game, dance to my favourite music tracks or just drive to the mall to look around and window shop. I DON'T WASTE FOOD!

Any lady tired of living alone? Can I come and join u? Don't be shy cos am harmless. I agree with the op when it comes to emergency. I nearly died one day cos I was sick in the middle of the night and no one to help out. I decided to call my gf and she kept on giving me words of encouragement till day break. It was not funny at all

It is harder to deal with emergencies
Life is unpredictable and sometimes, things do not happen the way you plan them. Even worse, you may find yourself in horrible situations where you realize your survival may depend on the help or even just presence of another being. Imagine a situation where you have an allergy attack or a heart attack in the middle of the night and you are alone with no one to assist you; you may not make it to the next morning. With a roommate or flatmate, however, you have someone readily available to raise alarm when needed and a caregiver for times when you are just too sick to cater for yourself.


This saved my life.

There's nothing bad about living alone. If u can afford it, why not?
As for me i am very wary of people so i can't take the risk of sharing rent with someone

Lolz.
I had a friend who was forced to marry his sweetheart much quicker than he planned; his reason for doing so was due to a bad experience he had while living alone. The friend fell ill and there was no one to get him to hospital or even get food for him, his saving grace was a friend who visited and seeing his sick condition,drove him to a clinic and later on made sure he was.adequately fed.
