71 Shocking Moments When Trusting Their Gut Literally Saved Lives—You Won’t Believe #37
Does that ‘I need to go home now’ feeling count? It wasn’t me, though—it was my mom.
I was about 12, and my mom left to run an errand, leaving me home alone. Not long after she left, the doorbell rang. This was strange because we lived on a hill with only two neighbors, and we were all pretty reclusive. We just didn’t get random visitors. Thanks to some conveniently placed picture frames, I was able to look out without being seen. I saw a young man I didn’t recognize, dressed in a t-shirt and jeans, and something about him just felt… off. So I decided to ignore him and hoped he’d leave.
But he didn’t. He hung around and started smoking. Again, we were on an isolated hill, I was alone, and I started to feel really scared. I went and hid, planning to wait for my mom to return. But she’d only just left, had a few errands to run, and I couldn’t reach the phone without him seeing me.
As I was trying to figure out what to do, my mom came home. She rushed inside and asked if I was okay. Apparently, she’d gotten an overwhelming ‘go home NOW’ feeling, so she hadn’t even made it to her first errand. She turned around right away, found the guy in our yard, and asked what he wanted. He muttered something about looking for someone, and my mom told him to leave. He was acting strangely, which made her nervous.
To this day, I have no idea what he wanted or how my mom knew to come home. But I’m extremely grateful that she did.
I was just at Costco and there was a lady hacking up one of her lungs. Every time she coughed she removed her mask. Not on anyone but still what the F$#%.
I went to a friend’s house with my mom to take them some old clothes. The doors were unlocked, cars were there, jackets on the couch, phones on the coffee table. But nobody was there. My insides were screaming that this was bad and we had to leave.
It turned out they had gone somewhere with another person and everyone thought I was crazy. The way they left the house was just super unsettling.
I was taking a walk with my “friend” at night when we heard and saw firecrackers exploding. Then we see 2 guys wearing black with big wood planks running at us. Nuff said.
