Does this happen to anyone else. A man i barely know has just knocked on my front door.I dont like it at this time of night, really gets my bloody heart racing. He wanted to know if he could come in for a beer.
This has happened loads, the local grocer has done it, three times it has happened with blokes coming out of the pub. I mean someone has broken in once ffs.
Do i have i like shagging pissed up men written on my forehead. Im totally shaking now.

That's really creepy, I wouldn't have gone anywhere near the door or window, but then I am a bit of a wimp

nightowl · 20/03/2005 00:04

my ex does this on a regular basis...well every couple of weeks for a couple months then i dont see him for about another six. i get men knocking my door for my neighbour nearly every week. usually at around 2.30 when pubs have shut. its a pain in the ass isnt it?

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 00:05

Well you never know if its an emergency do you. I was half expecting a drunken boyfriend.

Merlot · 20/03/2005 00:05

Another wimp here I'm afraid - Would definitely not open the door this time of night!

nightowl · 20/03/2005 00:06

i usually go upstairs and hang out of the bedroom window..frightens the hell out of me sometimes.

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 00:06

I think it is disgusting if i am honest, oh look theres a single mum i bet she is gagging for it. Vultures the lot of them.

Gobbledigook · 20/03/2005 00:06

I'd be bloody terrified and barricade myself in the bedroom with the chest of drawers behind the door! I'm one major wuss!

FF - you do seem to remain amazingly calm about these things!

nightowl · 20/03/2005 00:08

you know i reckon men do think that about single mothers..idiots.

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 00:08

It did scare the hell out of me but you cant really hide, i have no choice but to sort things out

OP posts:

whatsername · 20/03/2005 00:08

I live in quite a rough area, just up the road from the pub, and frequently have rowdy groups of ppl passing, never had one knock on the door though. They do take a piss in the garden on occasion mind...

I often don't even open the door during the day if I'm not expecting anyone.

Merlot · 20/03/2005 00:09

God aren't some men pathetic

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 00:10

I think they do to. Last time it happened a man stood at my door dribbling and asked if he could kiss me. FGS yes come in and ill drop my pants for ten minutes you sexy alcoholic, hopefully i will wake up the kids with my tremendous orgasm and you can meet them too. Pricks.

OP posts:

whatsername · 20/03/2005 00:11

christ I sound pathetic, don't I?

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 00:12

Nah not at all, just sensible

OP posts:

nightowl · 20/03/2005 00:13

you dont sound pathetic no, i often ignore the door because if i havent invited anyone its likely to be a pain in the ass salesman (and i never invite anyone). what is it with men who come to the door after a night on the beer? this didnt happen when i was younger grumble grumble.

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 00:16

one of them that did it, lives with his girlfriend 5 doors down, im really quite cross now

OP posts:

jampots · 20/03/2005 00:20

keep a bucket of water (maybe slight druken urination too) handy just in case obviously not suggesting you piss in the bucket and keep it but YKWIM

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 00:21

Yes i'll get my boys back on the potty

OP posts:

nightowl · 20/03/2005 00:23

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 00:24

and i surpose it was your fault too...because you obviously made him knock your door...funny how they never blame the bf!!

anorak · 20/03/2005 08:30

Perhaps it was the other day when you were cleaning your windows in the nude fairyfly...I bet that's what gave him the idea

fairyfly · 20/03/2005 09:40

Yes you are right Anorak i just dont think things through

Nightowl, yes she did, i shouldn't have felt his plums so seductively
