13 is thought to be an unlucky number in the United States. In Las Vegas I've noticed that none of the casinos have a 13th floor. I feel very differently about the number 13 since I was married on the 13th and my son was born on the 13th. I'd gamble on lucky 13 every time. Does your country have an unlucky number, and if so do you believe in it?

i dont really believe in lucky/unlucky numbers..
i mean, they vary for different people, or it might just be a coincidence, but no one really knows. For me 13 is a funny number, because i get it a lot...
I was 13 years old and i got calculator #13 in math class, and my lunch pin was 13131 haha...it just happened a lot that year~ but now its gone D;

I onced worked in a building that had thirteen floors. The elevator only went up to twelve, so if you wanted to go to thirteen, you had to select twelve and walk up one flight.
I do not have problem with Friday the 13th, it is just another day.
I do not like April 1, though, I had a really bad car accident on that day once. It is a really bad memory, I usually try not to drive on that day. Years later on the same date, I was driving, it was at night, cars kept blowing at me, and I was wondering what was wrong, then I realized I was driving the wrong way on a highway. Real scary

Actually most hotels acroos the United States don't have a 13th floor. I never really had a problem with the number myself. In fact most numbers for me that have a 7 or a 3 in it are lucky for me. Friday the 13ths are suppose to be a very unlucky day, here in the U.S, but I always have a great day on those days. My husband on the other hand usually has bad days. If he can he tries to just sleep away any Friday the 13ths, and not get up until it's the 14th. He usually ends up hurting himself, though only minorly, and things tend to break for him. Just nothing goes right on those days for him. I tell him it's all in his mind and if one of those days comes up I try to hide it from him so he won't even know the date. lol When he doesn't know, then things go fine, which just goes to show you it's definately all in his mind.
