You can't share PC games these days. If you want to do that; get a console.
Then just play the game from his library; while he plays from yours.
Assuming the game you want to play from his library is one that supports sharing.

So if i understand correctly - buying a DVD is no longer paying for the product but rather for the license to use it only? So there is no point in buying BOXed versions of games to be able to sell them later on, because essentialy they are same thing as a electronic key, with the small benefit of not having to download everything over the internet.
Considering just how many updates games get these days, unless you really like the box art or the physical edition is cheaper, there's hardly a point in getting a retail release nowadays.
Some people buying retail versions for collection purposes.
This site https://isthereanydeal.com/ lists every game and all retailers in the market so you can find some good deals on games you're interested in.
correct , the only reason to get a physical game is if it for some reason is heavily discounted , i got some games like dishonored 2 like that was like 20-30€ for a special edition with some cheap metal plate showing some picture that was discounted during a time where steam didnt have a sale

on origin it says 59,99€ or i could buy origin access , meanwhile the "physical" version (which for some origin games doesnt even contain a disk , just a key) is 39,99€ , if i wanted that game , i would get it from that store
but thats really the only use for physical pc games these days
You can legally sell the game, you cannot legally sell the licence.
After that the whole license can be sold by the owner of the license, if thats done as a whole.
That was a court ruling in eu.
Steam accounts can not be sold though.
