Love help: my friend wants me to go and sleep at her home tomorrow,and i - Help.com

tell her just that, that you don’t like to sleep outside your home. That’s it. You’re my good friend but i don’t sleep comfortable unless i’m at home. You don’t know who else lives in her house or if her parents are decent or not. Not a good idea to sleepover with strangers …

I had a friend in highschool that had similar issues. Came over, everything seemed fine, and then half way through the night he asked to be taken home because he felt sick and… well very likely homesick. In the end I knew it was basically because he couldn’t deal with sleeping at someone elses place. And to be honest I not only felt bad for him but thought of it as a weakness.

Now… IDK how old you are, or what kind of person you are, but to me, if you can’t even sleep in a strangers home, then what are you going to do when $h1t really hits the fan. It might seem scary and unnatural, but this is all apart of growing up and facing your fears. So in every sense of the word I think you should go and deal with it.

no i mean i can sleep at my best friends house,but not at houses of people that i dont know that much..i do have tough time but depends on the people i have arund

It’s really a matter of trust, isn’t it?

Do you think you have a hard time trusting people?

I think you should try to expand your “comfort zone” just a bit.

And you should realize that we are all dependent upon each other. And showing one another hospitality is one way of showing that we acknowledge our dependence and show our thankfulness for friends!

For what it’s worth, I don’t think your friend will turn into an ogre at midnight and eat you up! ;-)
