I don't need that thrill of knowing I got away with something (kinda like the CWC newbies that have to take the "Walmart Walk") by hiding my CWC from my friends.
Out of the dozen or so people I know personally that have Texas CHLs, I don't think a single one of us get a thrill thinking we have gotten away with something by carrying a gun
anywhere.
Carrying everyday to work, at customer's locations, to public businesses, to peoples homes
is just routine. It's no different than driving a car, or buying groceries, or mowing the grass, or whatever daily "ritual" that is fairly mundane.
Seriously, when I visit family or friends at their homes I just knock on the door, say "hi, how are you" and walk right in. Some are pro-gun, some are anti-gun, and some are ambivalent about guns. With a solid holster set up, the gun is never even touched. The gun is secure, and since it isn't being handled it isn't going to go off by itself.
Spending the night at someone's home has been covered by others in the thread. I have spent the night in a few people's home and the gun is secured in whatever method is required for that stay.
Of course, like I mentioned way back on my first post, if a homeowner brings it up and asks me not to carry in their home, I won't carry in their home. It's their castle.
