Are you ok with people just dropping in?

I am a man of routine and I hate having my routine messed up, I know exactly what I am doing and have the day all planned out and if someone was to drop in without letting me know I would get annoyed because my plans would have gone out of the window. I need to be warned and I like to sleep in too! Fortunately people know me well enough to let me know if they are wanting to come over, so I can plan around their visit, that way I can be ready for them and the day will be arranged accordingly.

Not really, i like to know if someone's comming and when. You could be in the middle of something and then all of a sudden "Knock Knock". So here's to all my friends "Please call first".

I'm not big in people just stopping by whenever they want. It drives me crazy because I like having warning and knowing when people are coming. It just makes me feel better because that means I'm able to clean up something or what not or at least have something ready for them when they stop by.

hi jen, i don,t think so dropping in and the person is not expecting you is not ok.they may have something else planned.i never like this iam not trying to be funny but my family has to call first to see if iam going to be home.

i don't care for people dropping in. i live in my p'j's, alwqays have, if they don't want to see me like that then they better stay away. loli don't visit as much as i should. people are welcome to come anytime they want to, i'd just soon they drop in as to call & say they are coming but not say when, i'm not a good waiter, lol have a good one.

I don't mind if people drop by, but it is better if they inform me in first place. There are not much people drop by often, since I'm not that such important person that could have some pop up suddenly. But, there are such people who just love to pop up suddenly out of nowhere. It is OK in certain condition, but in long term it could be annoying. BR.b

I don't mind people just dropping in as long as it is not a habitual thing. I do prefer to be called before someone actually stops by. That way I can be prepared for their visit. I am the kind of person that likes to stay in my night outfit for the whole morning a lot of times.

Not really because I am not able to handle surprises any more. If someone just dropped by I would panic as I am not prepared and my partner would calm me down and handle everything. I used to be ok with it but I do like my privacy but even so I could handle surprises once but now I need notice to get myself ready for a visit. Just another minor side effect of my illness.

That really depends, I guess. Some days I'd rather just hide out and not see anybody, but other days I don't mind people just dropping in. If it's somebody I haven't seen in a long time, that's really great, but if it's somebody I see all the time, I'd rather they call first.

Hello there, just like you i prefer people to give a heads up before visiting me so that I can prepare. though from where I come from people would usually drop in without prior notice that at times you are caught off guard especially is any meal is nearing. LOL. It is of good manners to offer you visitors a meal but if you come unprepared you would be inconvenient. LOL

I hate it when people drop in unexpected. May sound rude but anyone that knows me knows that they need to call ahead first because if they drop by unexpected, I make them wait until I get dressed or whatever I need to do! LOL There is always the unexpcted circumstance that warrants it but for the most part my friends and family knows not to surprise me! LOL

sometimes but not all types of ppl and not all the time too i mean sometiems we r havin a famly time n stuff n they drop by.. not good happy lotting and have a nice day!

i love friends and family dropping in.. but i need at least to know an hour before they do, because it gives me time to set things up. and hate to be caught on the wrong foot.

I always try to call others before stopping in. This gives them notice that I am coming and allows them to prepare for the visit. I also like people to do the same for me. Sometimes, I have a very busy schedule and do not like to miss the chance if someone wants to visit. Other days, I like to stay in my pjs and do not appreciate it if someone decides to stop by. Most of the time, this is not a problem. I think that almost everyone I know calls before coming over. Even the neighbors do this. I think it is a common courtesy to others and I really appreciate it.

I am definitely not OK with those kind of people.I always fix over the time of my coming anyone's home.I wish them to do the same.All my friends know this and they are very happy with this system.My privacy and priorities are very important to me.I hate them to be violated by the gate crashers.

I request my dear and near ones to please inform me before visiting my house. We being a working couple, it becomes difficult to attend, if someone drops in, without any kind of prior intimation or notice. All our relatives and friends know that we remain busy, therefore, they show the due courtesy of calling us, before visiting us.

hello JenInTN, Not that I don't like them but I hate surprise visit. I want to be prepared before they come so I can entertain them well, from preparing their food, snacks and the likes. Also, I want that the house is clean and presentable. So, I appreciate it much if they can say at least a word before they come over and visit. I don't like to be hanging for I don't have something for them to eat or something. I don't have to get a negative impression that I did not do my part as a host. I want it to be perfect as much as possible. I can do that by letting me know at least a day or so.

I absolutely hate when someone just drops in! That has to be the rudest thing ever. Even if you are in the neighborhood (which I doubt), please be courteous enough to pick up the phone and give me a 5 minute warning. My son is old enough now that he will have kids from the neighborhood that will pop in, but before if my door bell rang and I had not been fore warned that you were coming over, I would not even answer the door. Serves them right for just dropping in.

I usually call or text first before dropping by someone's place but if someone drops by our house unexpectedly, it's alright with me as long as she/he has a good reason and is polite enough to ask if I'm busy once they arrive

I know this may sound bad but it depends on who it is. Most of the time though I do want to be told if someone is coming over! After all, I might already have plans, may look awful (i.e no make-up whatsoever) or just generally not be prepared or not in the mood.
