Someone broke in/walked into my house tonight

The building I live in is 2 stories. Top floor is my home, bottom floor is a clothing company. There is only one door though and no door going up to the second floor.

I only left once today and it was while the business was still operating so the door was open when I came home. When they left, they should have made sure everything was locked.

So, I'm just about ready to go to bed. My phone was in the living room charging. I was in the bathroom. I heard someone come up the stairs so I went into my bedroom and locked the doors. They walked around, didn't test any of the doors, played the piano and then went back downstairs.

I freaked the fuck out. Didn't have a phone so I messaged people on facebook till I found someone to come and check stuff out. Would have used skype, but this is a new computer and I haven't installed it yet.

Anyway, long story short, they ended up setting off the alarm. The police came. I had a mini heart attack... Now I'm on NS cause I can't sleep.

YAY!

It wasn't anyone I know.

All my friends in the neighborhood were at a bar down the street. The guy that locked up last night swears that he locked everything. So now I'm thinking that it may have been a homeless person that hid out in the bathroom or something until the shop closed and then decided to wander around at 1am in which he then left.

why wouldnt you just go see who it was. chances are they're more scared of getting caught, and if you fake yell to someone to help you, or a dog, they aren't going to wait and see if they're real.

well yeah, I'd want to have some kind of weapon, but a dangerous burglar is the worst situation. best case, someone lost looking for the factory and it wasnt locked correctly. I dunno I wouldnt want to lock myself in the only locked door in the place, especially without a phone.

probably not. but you have to remember, your a guy, and shes a girl. that makes a WORLD of difference right there, so "what you would have done" is a lot different than what a normal girl would do.

K+ It sucks to have people do that it make you feel so paranoid. I had a friend who live's in albany and woke up with the man next to him holding his laptop and chased him out of his house for like 8 blocks, he plays rugby too, and he couldn't catch up to him.

Just spoke with the business owners.

They feel really bad. The owner didn't have his key with him so he specifically made sure to pull the door closed all the way. But something must of happened that it was jammed or if you pull it closed to slowly, it doesn't latch. So that is what we are assuming.

Then someone decided to check the door for some reason and it opened so they came in, hung out for a bit and played the piano. Then left.

when i was 11 and taking a shower downstairs( don't get aroused) and home alone, my cat was in the room outside of the bathroom knocking shit over and tweaking out so then i freaked out cause i didnt know she was there. then she was pacing around the room and all i could see was shadows going along the floor under the door. Luckily i was in the bathroom cause i pooped in fear, called my aunt to come check it out. she came over, found my cat and called me a pussy, and left. I respect her now





Ill just put a "cool story bro" here cause i sound like a bitch. it was scary though

why did you freak out just stay in your bathroom, when you see its a bunch of idiots tresspassing, playing piano, tell them to get the fuck out of your home and that the police are coming.

I would be so scared if I were you. I would've done the same thing and hid. haha. Not to get you scared or anything but I'd double check the locks if you can. Like walk down into the business and check the front door. I doubt someone would EVER go back two nights in a row to the same random house, but if you make sure everything's locked then you have nothing to worry about. I hope your nerves don't get the best of you or anything tonight and I hope you get a good nights sleep!
