I don't live in a commune. I have lived on my own for 15 years, but when I bought my little bungalow two years ago I had to take someone in to help me with the expenses. He's not as timely as I'd want him to be so I've taken on a second person. I'm hoping the paying schedule is better. It's a bit frightening living with people after being alone for so long. Just making a statement... nothing else
Living with people is one of the greatest things I have had in my life. After a while we usually become like a little family. It's quite the experiance. I have been out on my own since I have been 16 and I've only lived on my own for about 3 months. I hated it. I need people in my life or else I go crazy. Right now I have 4 roommates and I love each one very much. Casper
I've never lived on my own, so living with other people has becoming natural. I've had some good experiences with housemates, and not so great experiences with housemates. But I don't see myself living on my own anytime soon (And I would give serious thought to living in a commune).
i know that often times people say they would live in a commune but feel as if at some point it would become a bit clostrophobic.... here's a thought.... we are forming a community that is not focussed on the financial requirements... but instead a community based on love and respect... it is not to co-exist but instead to live we hear are a family... and i am able to have my own space whenever i want it... but i usually choose to be with the other members of the this family..... i would like to invite anyone who has a desire to become a part of a family inclusive of individual respect... give alittle give alot your choice... you need nothing to visit or live with us but a good heart ...read the post by crypto-man on dhammic socialism and you will see how i feel about life... and yes crypto-man is my brother!
