Stranger at door

Do you answer your door to strangers? I just had one knock on my door. I talked through the window next to the door and they were annoyed that I wouldn't open the door. That door is the only protection I have. I am completely vulnerable once I open it!

No, I do not. I don't open the door for my neighbors, whom I know fairly well, if they knock uninvited, or if I have a cold. I don't like spreading illnesses.

I have seen far too many spy movies where they stab people in the eye through the fish eye lens in the door...🤣🤣🤣. So I call out and ask who it is, and then I stand to one side of the door and explain why I am NOT opening the door.

Even if it's a friend or former friend, if they don't call first they are about as welcome as a skunk at a wedding.
