What are you afraid of?

Re: What are you afraid of?
Mean bumpies
Spiders.
I am way and beyond afraid of spiders and heights.
Heres a funny one for you I was 38 weeks pregnant walking down to the basement and there was the HUGE spider I screamed like a little girl and ran up the stairs. Ever see a woman run who is 9 months pregnant? and skip stairs to haha.
I think I just peed myself.
lol Oh yea and my SO was working third shift at the time and he heard me and come running out of the bedroom cause he thought I fell.
I'm suprised I didn't my big butt took off when I saw that thing.
LOL. i have to laugh because i feel your pain. when i first moved into my house i came home from work and DH was not home yet and wouldnt be for hours. i looked out my back sliding glass door and an enormous spider had built a home on the deck stairs. OUTSIDE. i started screaming crying. hysterically. called my DH at work an hour an a half away just to cry to him knowing he couldnt do anything. then called my sister. she lived 10 minutes away. i made her drive over with raid to kill it (i didnt have any raid since we just moved in). when she got here i didnt want her to open the back door in case the spider could jump (LOL) so i made her walk around the outside of the house and spray it from there. and i made her use half the can. LMAO. fool.
haha Oh I'm the same way for sure. Once time when I was younger I was home alone and I was on the phone turned my head and there it was. I screamed bloody murder yet again and turned my step dads spot light on and shined it on the thing and called my grandma and made her come kill it. haha, the spot light was so I wouldn't lose it, it was in my bedroom and I was NOT sleeping with that thing loose in my room.
Porta potties.
Eeewwww! O.k. those do bother me. lol
i'm afraid of moths as well!! they just gross me out. and fvcking centipedes.
I love this picture! Her face is cracking me up!
So glad I'm not the only one. DH makes fun of me all the time for it!
This...I got stuck in an outhouse as a child. We were out on this land for a cookout and I was about 7 running around with the other kids and stopped to use it. When my mom realized I wasn't with the kids they came looking fo me and I had been locked in it for about an hour!
Omg. I can't even imagine being stuck in there!!! You poor thing!
I don't like birds either. They freak me out with their little beaks and weird feathers and claws.
I am petrified of snakes though. All of them.
I am TERRIFIED of birds and Aliens (I know I sound like a loony, I can't even watch ET). DH and I breed snakes though, its a really cool hobby.
Spiders here too. I had an "event" with one while preg. I was sitting on the couch and looked up just in time to see a good sized spider run under the couch. I got up real quick trying to kill it with a shoe, but missed. I wouldn't sit on the couch for hours. I was trying to get it to run out to kill it. Was crying. It was terrible. I was moving the couch all around, as much as I could, trying to scare it out. Finally vacuuming did the trick haha.
And heights too.
Wasps/Hornets - scare the crap outta me. Cos they don't need any provocation to attack, unlike most bees.
My step dad was stung by a hornet one time. I hate to say it but it was so funny just because it stung him right between the eyes and it swelled so much he had squinty eyes. lol
Escelators. I will ride on them, but they terrify me. Idk why.
I'm also scared of outer space and the deep ocean. Something about the darkness and not knowing what's there. And the fact that you can't breathe.
I have several others, but they're not as bad.
When my husband I first started dating, I lived in the basement of a house. One night, we were in bed at my place when a spider dropped down on a strand of silk right in between our faces. Both of us screamed like little girls. Sometimes when we're in bed, one of us will catch the other looking up at the ceiling, just to be sure there's no spider.
I am terrified of bears. As an avid trail runner and backpacker, I've seen quite a few. They're all black bears, given the region where I live, and are relatively benign, but it still scares the sh!t out of me every time I encounter one. Sometimes it's even worse just to see signs of bears, like prints or scat, because then I don't know where they are. I imagine they're stalking me through the woods. At least if I spot one, I know where it is and can adjust accordingly.
