Do you answer the door...

...if you don't know who it is?
Someone just rang our bell and we didn't know them so we didn't answer. Now I feel bad because it was probably one of the neighbors (we just moved here so we don't know most of them). If it was, I'm sure they know we're home.

I probably would at this time 7:30 BUT if it were after 8 no way! I am chicken sh#t. I think sometimes it also depends on if dh is home.

Not if I'm alone. I don't open for Con Ed/ Cable etc. if I'm not expecting them either. You just never know. If DH is here he opens but always asks who it is.

If I'm home alone no way. If DH is home, probably.

Don't sweat it! You can answer or not answer your door anytime. If it was important, they'll be back!

I do, but not at night, and not if it looks like someone suspicious.

Nope. I don't answer unless I know the person, or I'm expecting a delivery.

I answer the door -- DH is on the buildings board so people stop by periodically to drop things off or what not and sometimes it's one of our neighbors. I ask who it is first of course.

I'm glad you answered for me!

I usually don't answer the door when I am home alone, but then I get all guilty that they can see my car there or hear the A/C running...And I get insanely curious about who it was. Last week I ignored the bell and still wonder who it was. Chat Icon We don't get many random people knocking though.

One time I was surprised by a box of candies and cookies when I looked outside the door after someone knocked. That was a good surprise.

Re: Do you answer the door...

No one ever rings our bell because we're in the basement! Chat Icon

But when we were in the co-op, I'd answer the door. It was usually just the UPS man with a package for me Chat Icon

Re: Do you answer the door...

I don't even answer the door for dh in broad daylight unless he can verify his identity...even if i see him thru the peephole i ask him questions only he would know prior to opening the door.

When we get packages we always have them delivered to one of our offices so I know if a delivery man comes knocking on the door (unless its the grocery's) he is a Chat Icon !

Nope!!! I do not take chances when I do expect anyone. DH always tell me never answer the door when I am alone and if I am not expecting anyone.
