My mother is with her brother and sister in a 2 hour drive from here, while my 3rd brother is his school tour, my 2nd brother in spending time with his girlfriend and 4th brother is at work, its almost 1:00 am here now at home im im all bored and mylottting, i got two dogs outside (who had recently bite some intruders) no worries of being intrude or something will happen bad. while im using my computer i turned on my dvd player so i have sound background. i hate to admit it but im starting to be afriad to be alone here now, for some reason i texted one of my brother to hurry to come home. maybe its just its my first time to be alone at night in the house.

Have you ever felt being afraid just because you're the only one present at your house? pls. do share you opinion it will be greatly appreciated.

thanks and happy mylotting!

Hello. Before when I was just a kid I used to be afraid of being along at home. But as turned into a teenager I started to experience some benefits of being alone at home. It's peaceful and I can do anything I want. I'm the King of the world. Haha. Don't be afraid. Or don't think of anything scary. Just enjoy there. Take advantage of myLot.:)

jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

some benefits e? what would that be for you? hehe. well, im used to having some company, you know whenever i go to the living room, i see someone, everytime when i go to the kitchen, there my mother is, but now no one is here and im all alone. well i dont think scary things stuff like ghost or a white lady, nothing like that. it just im not used to be alone.

yeah, im mylotting now, no one will annoy me to use the computer after me, hehehe


myLot reputation of 91/100. shadow41 (832)  1 month ago

Hahaha. So that one benefit there. Nobody will disturb you. You can myLot all night long. Hehe. There's a lot you can do that you can't when there's somebody around. Privacy and freedom. Isn't it nice?:p

jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

myLot reputation of 91/100. shadow41 (832)  1 month ago

jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

myLot reputation of 91/100. shadow41 (832)  1 month ago

I really don't get afraid when I am home alone unless I watch scary movies. If I expect someone to be home at a certain time and they do not arrive then I start getting afraid that something has happened to them. I live in a very safe town with a low crime rate and do not worry about many of the things others have to worry about. I find that if I am alone and keep busy the times goes by quickly but if I sit and dwell on something going wrong my mind will wander to no end. Hopefully your brother is home soon!


jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

how old are you? i do also watch scary movies but its not my thing to get afraid of that kind of stuff anymore, its just being alone in a big house all by youself while trying to be busy (the more i try to do stuff, the more time slowed for me) its almost 2:00 am now and no one is still home!. i do hope my brother is safe. my mother called every 15 minutes to check me, isnt she sweet? but its kinda annoying me now because im busy mylotting, when she call my connection goes off and i have to start all over again (writting, all will be gone when the connection goes off).


myLot reputation of 93/100. jodylee_04530 (509)  1 month ago

I am 28. Scary movies have always bothered me since I was little. I find that it allows my mind to think in a negative scary way and that is why I get scared. I still get nightmares from scary movies and tend to steer clear of them. It is wonderful that your mother is checking on you so often, she sounds very nice. I am sure your brother is safe, just running behind a little.

It's just me and my Husband at home and there are times that he needs to travel for work for few days and I'll be alone in the house day and night. I'm not afraid to be by myself at home, but I try to keep myself busy, either I'm online or watching TV, I also try not to think scary things, specially if I'm about to go to bed. Just make sure every windows/doors at your house are locked and I hope your brother will be home soon. happy


jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

how sad it is that you husband have to go travel for work and leave all alone there? do you have children to keep you company? i hope you have someone there, its hard being alone, right? and thanks, im too hoping my brother would come home soon, house is safe, doors and windows are locked and my 2 dogs are ready to bite if someone tries to go to front door while the back door is tightly locked with 4 locks!, hehe, im not really afraid of being alone here now, its just im used to have company always, when i go out, i have friends or my boyfriend with me, at work, i have my customer to keep me company, at home i have my family but now, its lame being alone.

i am on vacation so in these days i am at my home with my parents...but usually stayed in my flat in other city....and i am all alone...it is really get boring some times...but i have to manage this thing.


jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

yeah, we get easily bored when we're alone, right? when im alone, even if i do stuff around, time still slowed down and i feel like forever waiting for someone to come home. lately i been alone at night because my mother is visiting her family and stayed for nights there, while my bother is busy with thier life nowadays. i know i'll manage but im not used to it, maybe i grow up having so many companions at night at home, like cousin, uncles and other family member.

5. myLot reputation of 85/100. offlimits (236)   1 month ago

Well, not really. I find it fun at times, though. Haha. I have always been alone since my parents are both working abroad and I have no siblings. I would say I am already used to it. The caretaker of our house would stay out every now and then, so that leaves me here alone. It only gets scary when you suddenly hear strange noises out of nowhere. Haha! Take care!:)


jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

then your independent since then? how old are you? its nice that you can take care if yourself then, im 20 years old now, actually im near to being a twenty one years old, and i have no knowledge of cooking unless its ready to put in the stove (which luckyly my mother do when she left.) yeah i very aware of the noises around me, even though im watchin dvd and mylotting im still alert around me. thanks and happy mylotting!


myLot reputation of 85/100. offlimits (236)  1 month ago

Yes I consider myself independent, although I stayed with my aunt for a while when I was in high school. I am 17 years old right now. I don't usually cook too because our caretaker does that. If there's no food then of course I take care of it myself, especially that I only go home during weekends. I stay in a dormitory near our school. Anyways, I think we should really learn how to cook by now, you think so? Haha. Take care!:)

Hi Jen,

I am used to afraid when I was at the home alone and also
I need somebody with me in the home all the times in order to enjoy the
the time as well as to have the companion. Most of the times my mum is with
me and also we won't visit to anybody house in the night time so we are in
the home and also I am won't allow my mum to go out in the night time, because
I am in the home alone, and I am really too afraid when I was at the home
without anybody companion. That is the reasons most of the times I used to
stay in the home particularly in the night time .

Have a nice day.


jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

nowadays, me and mother are only the left at home because all of my three brothers are busy with their life now, work and schools occupied their time. friends always ask me to go with them at partys, blah, blah partys but i always turned down the invitations because i dont feel like leaving my mother at home, i know she can take care of myslef, its just i felt uncomportable that she is all alone in our big house and no companion.

Hi Jen and welcome! I live alone and have for a very long time, so fortunately for me, I am not afraid to be home alone.

In fact, I like the peace and the solitute (and the cleanliness) of living alone. My time is mine to spend as I wish, and I do not have to concern myself with the comings and goings of others.

I eat when I want, sleep when I want, and have the liberty of doing whatever I please, whenever I please.


jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

yeah there is a lot of advantages of being lone, i know but dont you get lonely sometimes? when you felt like talking to someone, no one is there, i could write some disavantages also of being alone, but anyway, ur lucky to have a place on your own and do whatever pleases you. goodluck then and happy mylotting!


myLot reputation of 95/100. malamar (442)  1 month ago

LOL - No Jen, it is not lonely. I spend many hours every day around a lot of people, and believe me, by the time I get home, I am more than ready for some peace and quiet. Weekends are spent with family and friends, so once again, not much time to be lonely.

HEHE. At my age an intruder is just company that is lost. LOL You have nothing to worry about. It is harder if you are young. You are easily scared of being alone. I think your brother being home will give you comfort so maybe that will happen.

I agree with the first answer. As you get older, there are so many benefits of being home alone, especially if you like loud music or having friends over.


jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

yeah there are so many benefits of being alone yet there so many disadvatages of being alone also, like, you have to cook fo yourself, laundry your used clothes, i know you could hired a housekeeper or someone to do thouse things for you, but its different when the one you loved and cared like your mother to cook for you, right?


myLot reputation of 96/100. mommaj (1064)  1 month ago

We grew up learning how to take care of ourselves. My mother died when I was fourteen so I know what you mean about missing someone taking care of you but if it is only for a night, or even a week, you will be fine. When the time passes you will appreciate your mom even more.

When I was younger I was afraid of being alone, but now that I'm old and grey I don't get afraid. Whatever you do, don't watch scary movies when you are alone at a young age, it makes you hear and see things that aren't there, you'll become even more afraid.

I recommend being with someone else or talking to someone on the phone or watching a comedy or action movie on T.V., that should calm your nerves and keep you company.


jen20ixm (77)  1 month ago

watching scary movies alone doesnt really scare me, im used to watching scary movie when i was a kid and my mother raised us not being afraid to that "kind of stuff" (ghost, white lady, so on and so forth) mostly, im afriad of being alone because its very lame and boring when your waiting for you to get sleepy, i tried to watch tv, listened to music but i ended up writing this post and i go mylotting. by the way, i'd let the dogs in to keep me company inside.

I can't really say that I'm afraid of being home alone. I'm somewhat used to being alone at home. I only live with my husband and it happens that sometimes I have to be home alone, while he's in class or something like that. I really don't mind being alone. I really don't have any issue with it. Otherwise, I wouldn't spend anytime alone in my apartment.
