Oh Suz I hope that you didn't think you had to agree with me. I just put this out there to get opinons. I love to hear others opinions, and to see both sides of an issue.

I truly do believe that this is going to occur in the US with the cost of everything rising.

No, I actually do agree, I think we're going to be seeing a lot more shared living, out of necessity for a lot of people. My sister and I talked about it, we both split up with the ex's about the same time. But, the job market by her sucks and we agreed, we'd probably kill each other. But, financially, it made sense for both of us.

Well I could name a few that I would share communal living room, dining room, family room, and kitchen with


but I must agree on private bathrooms, bedrooms, and a small area attached where you can get away from everyone:smile:

Nope, I don't think I would, I really like living on my own. If I lived with family (rolls her eyes) it would not work out, now with friends they live to far away. drinker smokin flowerforyou laugh :wink:

I have had alot of student en teenagers live with me days weeks or months at a time....basically...so they can be mentored en have a life. My parents live 1 house away en no one else lives in the US...so.
Friends occasionally is cool. But friends as room-mate no....

All in one place...would not work for me.

However, a big piece of land that all of my family could dwell on would be lovely. Friends, too. Even a cul-de-sac that my boy could go visiting family and friends and play outside would rock.

The whole kibbutz/commune thing does not appeal to me being a city girl at heart. However, I would like to come visit.

Jess, you never cease to amaze me with your life stories.

And for the nudists, go for it, but you are not going to see me naked!
