1. Doing firewood and keeping fires going.

2. I was a college student travelling the lightrail late at night around downtown. A guy who looks shady (or homeless?) was harassing me. I kept trying to ignore him. Eventually I got off at my stop and he did as well. It felt like he was following me and I was fast walking towards my apartment without looking back, thinking “I hate being a girl”.

3. I used to live with housemates. During Christmas, they all went home but I stayed because I had work and my family was too far away. Then the home invasion happened and I’m never the same since. I absolutely hate living alone and I always checks doors about five times before going to bed.

4. There is no particular moment or incident that made me feel this way. I think it’s more of a general feeling that I get when I’m alone and feel like I need help or protection.

5. stalker ex climbed up to 2nd floor balcony sliding door to break in on me.

6. I’ve never experienced this. In fact, I love living alone so much that I don’t think I ever want to be in a relationship that involves moving in with another person ever again.

7. I love it 99.99% of the time. But every now and then something makes a weird noise or the heater is being funny and I just have to figure it out? All by myself? I can call the landlord for some of it, but other stuff, I’m just on my own? That seems very unsafe

8. None. I loved it.

9. Knocking yourself unconscious by accident and no one noticing for so long that you somehow die from it.

   (Didn’t happen, but it’s a big fear)

10. Coming home to find a bat in my kitchen- a living nightmare.
