Who's over protected about their stuff

Post Reply New Topic

Don’t touch my stuff….

I am only over protective about two things I own. The stash of my own artwork and my PSP.

Everything else I could take it or leave it. I am not attached to most of my belongings.

After all, Tyler Durden says that everything you own ends up owning you. So I choose to not own very much.

Plus, I'm really poor so the things I do I have, though not much, do actually seem to matter a lot to me.

That duality of not being attached to things that mean a lot to me... you figure it out. It makes my head hurt thinking about it.

My dad and brother are the worst about their stuff being touched. they want their stuff new and untouched. both have collections of stuff. also they are both extreemly sensitive to sound.

I don't like my electronics touched by kids. but there is 1 kid who I have let use my laptop. I lived to tell about it.

but my brother and dad are worse about having their stuff touched.

One friend lost my Da Vinci Code...another one still has one of my books from 6 months ago and I keep asking her for it in the most 'un psycho' way....but I am going to burst a boiler soon if I don't get it...

From now on, I am not lending anything...I hate book stealers...dirty rotten theivers.

And yes, keep your hands off all my stuff until I have ascertained that you have respect for it. I even hate it sometimes when people sit on my sofa the wrong way...I get over it, and I hate that it bugs me...but it's just an extension of me....that is really how I see my possessions...not seperate from me.

I can still cry about things my family sold over 20 years ago.

im really over protective of my stuff, only problem is that i share a room with my 4 year old brother (i'm 17) it drives me nuts sometimes, most of my stuff lives of selves!

Yep. Even though it is a mess I won't let anyone near my stuff.

I used to be very protective of stuff, especially small, unimportant stuff (in other people's views). Once I lost a very pretty bowtie in preschool and I spent lunchtime crying about it. And another time I lost a BEAUTIFUL yellow gel pen in 2nd grade and cried until it was found.

But I'm not like that anymore since for a few years I've had my pens, books and even money (in other words, important stuff) stolen in school, and my school doesn't do ANYTHING about it so I don't care anymore.

Kinda, mostly about my PC.

I thought I was the only one in the world to get upset over "wrong-sitting"! I'm happy and relieved when people finally leave so I can fix their destruction. I think I spend at least ten minutes a day fixing my couches and loveseats.

I can't stand it when my mother, who is quite large, just CRUSHES my couch cushions with her enormous bulk. Good thing she rarely visits.

Just in case you are interested, the drummer who played the parts of the monster (I forget his name) is in the house band on a tv program called 'The Frank Skinner Show' (I think it is/was on ITV). He is quite old now but is a great jazz drummer.

I definitely am. I carry my purse everywhere. I had a purse stolen on one occasion, and am determined never to let it happen again.

At times I am, at times I'm not. I keep EVERYTHING though, I never know if it will be important to me later or not, and am obsessed with paper things especially-magazines, kids drawings (I have boxes full of drawings and my house would probably be considered a fire hazard if they saw the condition of some of my stashes of papers). I'm extremely unorganized, but I'm used to it unorganized-if someone moves something of mine, I don't necessarily notice it one bit as long as I don't see them move it. If I actually see them holding something of mine I always ask why they have it (as if someone's gonna steal some crumpled up piece of paper, or as if they were going to put it somewhere I will never find it-lol, let them try! I can never find anything anyway!) and then I watch them until they put it down, then move it to a pile of stuff right next to me, just so it won't happen again. I even ask my kids, when they pick up something of mine, it drives me nuts-even if my stuff is cluttered, unorganized, very messy, and I can't find anything in it, it's still MY clutter!

Ooh and when they plonk on them really hard adding sag factor to my sofa springs..... I just want to scream "SIT ON THE FLOOR OR GET THE F^*%! !! OUT OF MY HOUSE! But I dont't, I just say 'tea or coffee' ??? Apparently that is what you are supposed to say when visitors come!

I'm like a watching dog, If I see someone touch something and ask a question, I admediately go to them and try to explain as quickly and possible.

Explaining stuff is hard and fusterating! Because when I do, know one knows what the heck I'm talking about!

I tend to be very overprotective of my things, particularly two of my mugs for some reason. I have other mugs too that I'm fine with people using, but I won't let anyone near my two faves! I'm also protective of my laptop, but thankfully I don't think anyone else in my house would even try to use it.

i am veeety prtective of my stuff!
hands off my movies
