One thing I do close to this is refusing to walk on street grating. As a child I heard about someone and their dog getting electrocuted by one when a light post had bad lighting and I have seen so many videos of grating giving way because of street failures. 😅 Looking the story up, I can't find it (would have been a long time ago) but some people did talk about electricity in cities being a risk to puppers at least.
I do this and I don’t even have a reason like you do.
I think it’s just become so ingrained in me now that it’s not even a conscious choice 😅
When i was little i didn't like to walk on cracks. Not for any reason or even the old kiddy superstition. I still have to catch myself not walking funny to avoid the pattern cracks in sidewalk! 😂
I absolutely relate to this - I worry my stopping to let people pass so I don’t have to walk on grates makes me look totally unhinged
