Y’all are gonna have to take a detour from sex questions to liberate some toothpicks!

Okay…let’s see if I can get some wood here! (Er…)

**Never have I ever slept in an empty house (save me) for more than two consecutive nights.**

I went from living with my mother to living with my son to living with my husband and family. While I’ve had three weekends (in 34 years) where everyone was away at once, two nights without the presence of someone else is the max.

I think if there’s no one in your personal apartment, it counts. I’ve lived in apartments for years, and I count it as not being with people if my neighbors are home but my family is away.

Substitute “home” for “house”, if you like.

Ok, I’m out of the game, but still wanna play 🙂

I’ve been living on my own, most of the time since I moved away from the old folks ten years ago.

I misunderstood the rules. 😛

Hell, I almost lost my virginity in the bed of my pickup!

I lived alone in an A-Frame for about 18 months in college. There were a few 5 day stretches where nobody was sharing my bed.
