window issues

Post Reply New Topic

Sometimes I wish my room didn't have any windows at all.
I'm always paranoid that somebody walking down the street can just turn around and see what I'm doing. I consider my bed room to be my only sanctuary, my comfort zone if you will, and the fact that a complete stranger can look through my window makes me feel like my personal space is being violated. My blinds are always shut but I still feel like anyone could just peek through the space in between them and the window. And since a window panel is thinner than a wall, I'm able to hear more noises outside. People talking, thumps & bumps, car alarms going off, etc. always make me even more jumpy.
But unfortunately I sometimes have to open the blinds to lighten up the room, or open the window for some fresh air. I hate messing around with windows because everyone can see me do it. I don't want to be seen! I just want to feel comfortable in my own room!

Similar. Always try and keep the downstairs windows covered and keep away from my bedroom window. I do open the bedroom curtains though, as I like the light.

You can buy a transparent film to stick to your windows. It lets in all the light but if you try to look through it, everything is too blurry to make out. Lots of people use it for their bathroom windows. You can buy it at home improvement stores like Lowes and Home Depot.

I live on the first floor so all the windows are covered. I hate it though, I like the sun to shine in.

No. Unless I'm reallly high in a building and live there and you can noticeably feel the swing in the building. Or by a window on planes and there's turbulance - otherwise it's cool to look at the pretty clouds ^_^

I'm a bit infatuated with sunshine and tend to pay other people almost no mind. So I like them.

My mom used to scold me for having my blinds open if I was changing clothes because my room is visible to the street. My response is that if some perv is getting his jollies by watching me change, that's his problem and doesn't affect me in the least.

I bought some limo tint for cars and put that on my windows

In the day I generally like them. At night they frighten me. Beyond words.

I like windows as they make the room seem larger and provide a good source of natural light. However, for some bizarre reason, I did not like the fact that school busses had windows when I was in Kindergarten... Perhaps I was afraid that I would fall out of one, but I cannot remember for sure.
