    Tries to keep people from coming into my room? I'm not sure if it's just a weird thing about me, but I will not let anyone come into my room (well, in my case a large closet/storage room) I guess I think that people may carry germs into there, or something. I'll let them look inside it,or whatever, but I try to keeppeople out.


    So... is it just me who keeps peopleout of personal space in fear they may carry throw up germs in there?

    Well i can't really do that! My daughter goes anywhere she wants to lol. But i do get nervous when people come round and stuff i hate it when they ask to see round the house but i think thats mainly cos its such a mess!!! But i can understand why u act this way.. but remember people dont carry germs and 'throw up bugs' round very often.

    Aerodynamically the bumblebee shouldn\'t be able to fly, but the bumblebee doesn\'t know that so it goes on flying anyway.

    Only if their not well I get worried - or someone in my house (at uni or home) is unwell - I try to keep my door shut and then I roll up my dressing gown and put it along the bottom of the door to try and keep the germs from coming under the door! Its a funny behaviour but it makes me feel better...[img]smileys/smilies_12.gif[/img]

    I can sympathise with you Rhinoseri, I hate anyone coming into my home because I am convinced they will be carrying germs. No one is aloud in my kitchen and even if they do they must take their outside shoes off and every single surface is scrubbed once they have left. Just imagine what state I am in when the central heating is due for its annual service!!


    I have even been known to throw away cups after they have drunk from them. I am just so scarred that they might be carrying something.


    Worst is when my mother-in-law wants to bring her grandchild around - I hate it - he touches everything and I end up in panic mode once they have gone cleaning every surface.


    Believe me, I could go on all day discussing my "problems" and silly things I have done in my attempt to overcome them.


    Take care
