I was browsing Facebook today and saw a post from my friend about someone who broke into their garage and car and stole some things. They also included a video that showed the thief going through other people's cars. The caption was "lock your doors" and sure enough, the dude didn't even have to do anything; he just opened the car, stole some things and left.
My ex never locked her doors when she lived with her parents or when we lived together either. One time, I came by unannounced, opened the door to their house and walked in. Nobody was home. I called them to let them know I was there and that the door was unlocked and they didn't care. Like wtf? How are people going to be surprised they're getting jacked by thieves if they don't bother to lock their door?
My ex and I constantly fought about locking the door to our house because I had thousands of dollars worth of equipment for work that I didn't want stolen. She told me that I was being paranoid and nobody wanted our stuff. Mind you, this was a few months after someone broke into my car and stole both our stuff while we were at a concert.
