I think it has made me healthier. It certainly has kept me more sane and happy. If I had to live with someone I would be miserable. I get to do what I want, when I want. It is great! If I didn't love it then I would live with someone. Simple. It is by choice. I have had roommates galore and definitely know that this is the best decision for me.
