What's yours is mine, but is what's mine yours?

Share House.....what do we share?  We share the living space, the furniture, the kitchen appliances, chores but not beds, cars or all the food.  (except Richard and I!)  Sometimes we share advice and encouragement and time.  We gave quite alot of thought to what we'd share and what we wouldn't before we moved in. 
Inviting another couple to live with your family means that some things are personal and not shared, but if we don't share other things it's pointless living together. 
Some of the food has names written on it, but mostly it's a case of ask if you want to use something and most times you'll get "yes " as the answer. If we had other children living here I think it would be very different as other kids' toys are not easily shared.  Adults are a totally different story and we're mature enough most of the time to work it out.
