I agree that sucks but better safe than sorry

Perhaps you are the source of the gas? Something is wrong.

You can also call the gas company if you smell gas. (From outside the home. You should still get everyone out and don't switch anything on or off.) Probably the best option if it is just a mild odor.

Better safe than dead. You did the right thing. I do Carbon monoxide and gas leak checks all the time with my fire department and I run into people I know all the time. I don’t even pay attention to how messy their houses are. I’m sure he’s the same way and doesn’t care

Better than running into your ex while having horrendous gas.

I work for the Gas company. You did the right thing.

You know what they say, she who smelled it, dealt it.

Well, you did the right thing. Bonus, now you don’t have to clean your apartment when you invite your crush over!
