Car smells like gasoline

These past couple of weeks I've noticed my car randomly smells like gasoline at times, sometimes I'll go in it in the morning before work and notice the scent strongly.
I don't notice any gas markings underneath the car like a gas leak like that
What do u think the chance of my car randomly exploding when i turn it on some day are
Sometimes it smells pretty strong right after i pump gas to the point where i tell people not to light cigs out of fear we'll explode

When the pump cuts off on its own from the tank being full, do you top it off some more?
That can do it

Does it smell like gas outside of the car? Does any of your friends smoke PCP?

Move your car out of the garage let it air for a minute, and smell the ground. Even if there's no visible liquid, if it's leaking, it might be evaporating but you should smell some residue.

Do you pump your own gas? It might just be you getting gas on your hands and you don't realize it.
