It is far more common to say 'me' (Maj is correct). I believe it used to be 'I' though, many years ago.. (in a galaxy far, far away)

It depends how 'well spoken' you are. There are so many different dialects that it would be impossible to get a figure for that.

It's important to get a handle on which one is technically correct, though, folks, because sometimes it can affect the meaning. Here's the example that everyone always quotes:

The first sentences means that he loves her more than he loves me, the second that he loves her more than I love her.
