Open the door by yourself or by someone else,which do you prefer?

your friend have an weird habit i guess coz at our place its the wife who stays back at home and she comes happily to open the door when her husband returns back after a days work and your friend seems to be following this one.If i were to share a room then i would prefer to carry a spare key so i getto enter at my will easily and i hate to wait at the door--unitl someone opens it.great day.

It's my home so I prefer to let myself in. At times when I've forgotten my key then I do knock and my daughter will open the door for me. I don't get any warm fuzzy feeling from that. I actually feel kind of bad for disturbing her in whatever she is doing and having her run to the door even tho she never seems to mind.

i prefer to do it myself,there's no reason why i can't. the only time i wish someone would is when i have armfuls of something. then it comes in handy.

I prefer to open the door for myself. I don't like the feeling of having to rely on other people. I want to be able to come and go as I please with no hassle. It's just like relying on someone for a rid, it's too risky because you're never promised they'll come. And in the case of a house, you're not promised that someone will always be home. Emergencies happen and I need to know I can have access to everything I need when I need it. My times runs on my schedule, not anybody elses, that's how I feel anyways.

hello langjipingzong... as much as possible i don't like to disturb other people same with me that i don't want to be disturbed specially when i am already sleeping at night. when i was still living with my parents, i see to it that i do come home early, and when i go home late & everyone's sleeping, i feel shy to knock & wake them up and so what i do is to bring a key with me... and when i am already working and i rent a room, still i go home early and if i will to come home late, i inform the people there that i will come home late and so they will leave the door open for me... well anyway, i also like the feeling of someone is waiting for me to be home...but still i don't want to disturb them and i feel guilty whenever i disturb my moms sleep just because she's waiting for me to come home...

I think if you're living in a dorm, you should get used to opening the door by yourself. It's not like your roommate is always around or not busy to open the door for you. Anyway, knocking or asking before opening the door would be polite so you wont surprise your roommate everytime you're coming in.

Hey just like you, langjipingzong, I like to bring the keys with me and open the door by myself, I don't wanna trouble others by opening the door for me. hehe

If someone else is home they can open the door for me.... if not i have no problem opening the door myself. If i had stuff in my hands or had to dig through my bag it would be nice if they heard me to open the door!

I also live in an apartment with 6 friends of mine.And we don't have enough keys for all of us.So we all have to manage the keys but everyone prefers not carrying the key as for our case we become limited on our time outside as the one who is carrying key has to be home before everyone else does.And i personally prefer open door by someone else its feels good when someone opens the door and is there to talk and all when i come back home after work.

if some one opens door for us than he or she gives us respect...but if any elder is doing that than thats not good ..

I used to bring the key so I needn't ask others to help me,also maybe nobody in room.
