whenever people knock on the door, i don't get it unless its my parents (and i know this because they shout my name out in chinese). especially when i am alone, i don't care who it is, i just won't open the door because i am scared (even if it's someone i know). especially when its strangers, i get petrified and i wouldn't dare to move. and plus, we don't have those little magnifying glass on our door.

what are you like and do when people knock on your door?

It irks me when I have to get my lazy arse off the computer chair to walk a total of three feet, but still. I'm usually always in bummish clothes and my glasses...and if it's one of those door to door people trying to sell something, I pretend I don't speak English and start speaking French. laugh.gif They just walk away...pretty funny indeed.

wow glad i am not alone.
especially when it sounds like a stranger knocking on the door, when i stand there frozen for a couple of minute they go away, then i peek outside the window to make sure that they are gone.

Well i never get the door. Partially because im lazy, and partially because i know the person at the door is never here to see me. Either my parents would get it, or if they're not home, no one will. Last time someone came to my door was about a week ago, when Jehovas Whitnesses wouldn't leave me alone. They stood outside ringing the doorbell for 20 minutes.

But sometimes, when family comes over unexpendedly and my parents aren't home, i get creeped out. I get really quiet so they don't hear me. I don't have a peephole, so i don't bother looking through the window. They might see me and get mad. Eventually they would assume no one is home. And then i would calm down. Lol im a weirdo _smile.gif .

I always look through the window to find out who it is. If it's someone I don't know, than I obviously don't open the door to them.

that's exactly what i do too, people tend to knock on my doors during my lunch break (since i eat lunch at home), and i always watch tv as i eat, then in the middle of it someone knocks the door, and i frantically grab the remote and press mute, and then i just sit there frozen and not make any sound until they go away.

I love opening doors.
Even though no one "knocks" on the door, the doorbell.
And I know that no stranger would come, cause we've gotten like, 2 telemarketers in the past 4 years.

And there's like this window thing on my door.. it's kinda big...

When my parents are home, I let them open it.
But if I'm alone, I won't open it unless I'm expecting someone to come.
I would shut off all the t.v.'s and close all the blinds, then I would try and peek out a window or something.

yeah i never open the door either, i don't like having people over because my parents will make fun of them after they leave _dry.gif those jehovah's witnesses are weird...it's like they wait there to make sure you're not home until they annoy someone else wacko.gif when a friend of my parents or relatives come over (rarely) i go to my room too...but it's because i'm really shy pinch.gif

i think you should probably talk to your parents about installing that peephole and one of those chains on your door...maybe that will help you get over it _unsure.gif

No one knocks on our door because I live in an apartment, so if people came, I would know beforehand. Also, we have a doorbell so it's unlikely someone will knock our door unless the doorbell doesn't work.

... no one knocks at my door, except my parents. They usually ring the doorbell.

Oh, did you mean an "eye-hole" on the door? I believe that's what it's called. Yea, I have one of those.

I rarely get the door unless my mom knocks on the dorr then shouts my name. But even so, everyone uses the doorbell anyway. it's mroe convenient... Although I rarely get the door. -_-

no one knocks. its always either the ups man or my sister or my cousin, and i expect all of them. and if someone who i dont know knocks, i look at their reflection in the fish tank if its a sunny day, and if its cloud, i peer out of the window and if its someone i know, i'll open. if i dont know them, i run upstairs or downstairs.

because my parents' friend who lives few blocks away always come and knock on our door and they yell "ARE YOU THERE???" And they usually do it when i have my lunch break, and my lunch break isn't that long and i want to save some time, because if i open the door they'll talk for about 10 minutes and THEN go.
plus, sometimes i just don't bother because what if i say something wrong? My parents'll come back home and yell at me.

I live on the 3rd floor and for some reason you can hear the doorbell really loudly so usually i scream something like, "HOLY SHIT" and look out the window. I only open the door for my sister cuz I know she never brings her key anywhere.

I have 2 front doors. a wooden door, and a metal door. You know, the door that Chinese people always have. Yeah, so I take a look. I know the person can't do much to hurt me. I don't take crap from people who want to crap on my front steps. So I ask them what's going on and get rid of them. Usually they want to pick fruit from the tree on my front lawn. "Hey, eat your heart out."

What I'm like? I'm the kind of person who doesn't care. Take things head on. Pull off some Jackie Chan along the way. :-)

Good night, loves.
