Default Do you feel comfortable walking alone when it's dark?

Are you a paranoid person convinced everyone's out to get you or do you not even think twice about walking alone at night?

Think anyone would feel petrified in pitch black dark, but as in streetlights dark, I'm alright

Depends on the time of night and if I'm drunk or not

Before 10pm and sober...yeah that's fine, after midnight and sober...never, after midnight and drunk, well I at least have the courage to get on with it whereas if I were sober I would just point blank refuse, but if anything it makes me more paranoid and I rush to wherever I need to go

Yeah I'm alright with it, quite often am out alone at night in the early hours, that's not to say I don't wonder if everyone I pass might be a mugger or a murdering psychopath but I take my chances that they're probably not

Yeah, I'm cool with it. Just put your hood up and listen to some music through headphones and you are at the destination in no time anyway.

I am scared to go outside at night, especially alone, I live in quite a dangerous area and a few weeks ago someone pulled out a gun at a petrol station I was buying milk in at dusk, also got followed by a dodgy guy in Tesco recently, so it has been extreme since then, so I am scared to go out alone even if there's visibility, latest I'd say is around 6pm these days.

I have lived in both and there is much less chance of anything happening in the countryside. (But I suppose there is also less chance of help if something does happen, lol).

I sometimes take walks at 3am and have done for years so walking alone in the dark, even when it is pitch black through the countryside doesn't bother me. I find it kind of exciting and gets my imagination pumping.

Generally yes - I used to go for walks in the middle of the night every night around 2008/2009.

It doesn't bother me. I have to admit I feel more unsure if I see any groupings of others.
