Embrassing Habits

I have some weird child like habits which I never grew out of from a child, and wondered if anyone else had any strange habits they wanted to share.

My strange habits are I have a small blanket that I will sniff/use as comfort and always had one from a baby. I can't sleep and will have it throughout the day.

I will cut labels out of clothes and play with them with my fingers, I collect labels and you will find them everywhere dotted around my flat. I used to be bad at taking labels out of everything and putting holes in clothes.

Last one I am scared of the dark and will have a night light on at night, I can't sleep if it is fully dark so will always have some form of light on.

What weird/embrassing habits if any do you have?

    I like this thread, a good idea for a discussion I think. :) 

    Before I go out I always line up all the stuff I need (wallet, keys, glasses etc.) somewhere like on a table or on the bed to check it's all there. I am often quite nervous and not thinking perfectly straight before going out so need to lay everything out so that I can see nice and clearly whether I have everything.

    I don't know if it's a weird habit, or OCD, or just being careful...but I always make sure things are properly turned off or closed, like taps or the fridge door. I will always close it but then make doubly sure it is in the correct position by putting a tiny bit of force on it.

    I always have 2-3 or even more copies of important documents on my computer in various places in case one malfunctions. For example one on the laptop, one in the "cloud", one on the iPad and one hard copy.

    I want to question what weird/embarrassing habits look like @rubin16! I personally think nothing is weird/embarrassing if it brings comfort   :p
