In the true sense you are not living alone. A large amount of your waking time you ARE spending with others , sharing your day.May be if yiou are alone , you get back home to enjoy solitude.
To many this casual meetings with people , each day, is not fulfilling. They like to have someone with whom they share their innermost feelings ... be it joy , sorrow , chanllenge.. That is why they develop friendship and they spend a lot of time with the friends.
A small further step is to take on board another person who , you are able to tolerate and yet have your space . The very fact that you have moved from being alone to this step shows that you will expect happiness , sharing with this person.
More fun , less fun in life would totally depend upon what both of you expect out of your lives. Variety is a better word than fun.

Life can be shared on a superficial level or on a deeper level, and I think that the depth of the sharing would ultimately be the governing factor for the answer. The superficial level of sharing in reality is not sharing, but a delusion, that pacifies thought into believing all is well, when in fact not all is well at all. For me, living alone is much more fun, if fun means joy, happiness, dreaming, excitement, adventure, hope, freedom, spontaneity, recreation, etc. But if fun means vacations, dinners, theater (worldly pleasures), then maybe the answer would be no. However, the priceless fun is hope and mental freedom.

Too good question.
1. Life is definitely more fun to share with the one who is "genuine" or "worthy" of it - not just anybody. But what if the "one" whom you thought to be genuine and worthy turns out to be a deception ?
2. One who carelessly or recklessly shares one's life with any Tom, Dick or Harry or with just some other guy down the street is bound to end up in a well of unhappiness.
3. I would rather prefer to share some happy moments with someone who is very good and cherish the memories of togetherness, no matter how infrequent they are, rather than share the entire life with someone who is not good enough to deserve this sharing. This way I can keep my love alive better and nurture it to grow better for the "someone".
4. Solitude has its purpose. It is then when one feels the "Love of the Divine" so intense. The happiness there is just inexplicable. More than any ecstasy of the world.

Life lived alone? when I found myself the third person out. I was alone with me and what I did was OK. Yet in the next day I was brought back into the three, sharing my adventure outside the unity of three, that was fun too.I went out to gather some sights and sounds something to share next time around, being alone was fine.

It's much more difficult to share your life with someone than living it alone. You have to learn to listen and express yourself while respecting the other. You have to learn to compromise. This is very difficult and i'd say impossible for some, but when you can make a relationship work you grow so much as a person.

I see you have a lot of answers here. Go with Wise Guy,, the answer is stated simply, but spot on. Rambling details don't necessarily create the best answer.

Life shared with someone who you love, loves you, and treats you with respect, and you two have a friendship is better than living alone.
Anything else than that, I think it's better to live alone with family and friends.

I think that depends solely on the person. I'd be miserable alone. My brother, who is 52, is NOT gay, but has never dated, either. He's OCD and could never live with another person! He's very very happy and content, and loves his profession. He is a loving and caring brother, and has chosen a life alone.

Yes, that is true, and you have more fun with a dollar in your pocket instead of a hundred dollars, especially if you share it with someone else. Then you just fight over it.
