It's been a few months with my curtains closed. I do not feel like opening them due to the fact that too many passers-by were looking in my direction before. It really pissed me off. I need some privacy. At the same time I open my window on a regular basis, just to let some fresh air in.

I have my blinds closed all-the-time, when family or friends spend extended amounts of time in my room I open them. Oddly enough I think im paranoid someone is watching. As for windows, I open one or two most of the time depending on how cold it is and how many bugs are in the air (HATE. bugs.).

Never ever, it terrifies me when I lived with my grandma in an apartment and people walked buy even though I had thick black drapes. I won't open the window during the summer even if I'm dying of heat.

I rarely have my curtains open, I prefer the dark and daylight often feels very confronting to me. Maybe it's like creating my own reality here with the doors locked and blinds drawn?
I also tend to sleep during the day and stay up all night, I walked the town the other night at 3am and it was deserted and lovely. Of course, I felt like shit the entire time! Laughing

No, I actually don't. Whenever I go into a room I always makes sure ALL the curtains completely cover the windows all the way, just to make sure no one can see. I also have to close all the doors ALL the way so that I can hear the door opening, that way I will be prepared and know somebody is coming in.

My blinds & curtains stay closed most of the time. During weekdays I don't open them at all.

I want to open them. I like the bright light coming in. It makes me feel better. I keep them closed mainly because I think people can see into my living and bed rooms. Hmm sometimes I wish I could afford a better place to live.

Lately I have been making an effort to open them during weekends, when there is enough light... which is not much as I sleep late and wakeup late during weekends.

I rarely open the curtains, seeing people outside having fun intimidates me.
