I don't snoop either. Not at the office or at someone's home.

A couple of weekends ago I pet-sat at a friend's place for one night and two days....and the thought did come up for me, to look in her closet to see where she kept all of her lovely clothes, but then I had a second thought and decided not to, that it was not my house, and I didn't want to compromise our relationship. It just creeped me out too much. It almost falls in to the category of "too much information" about someone. I would never look in her medicine cabinet and hardly looked for food to eat. I brought my own food so I wouldn't have to dig through cabinets or drawers looking for things.

I do look at things in my Mom's house, simply to keep track of what she is up to and if she needs things. She is elderly and has short term memory loss, so it is necessary. Even so, I don't do it often and very closely.

In general, I think we (well, not everyone!) are brought up to respect other peoples' spaces and there are many no-no's about snooping in areas that are not yours. There are times when parents have to snoop in kids' rooms etc. and that sometimes doesn't feel good for the kids.............. I know!
