What are three things you are scared of?

[SnowedIn]

Here are mine:

• Saying the wrong thing [and offending someone/pushing them away]
• Bees
• Getting shots / getting blood drawn, so needles

Thank you all for responding! Thanks to GaG I can only select a total of two MHO and/or one for each gender. Blah. So, getting around that, my other two would go to:

Guy: @NathanDavis
Girl: @Mimi_loves_her

All these responses were seriously awesome and very insightful. Thank you!

1. I have a secret I’m afraid of finding out, something I did in my past.
2. Being murdered/raped
3. Being kidnapped into human trafficking and being raped or tortured continuously over time. While 2 and 3 are Similar the difference for me is dying by murder or being raped but then the person lets me go free is scary but not as scary as being held captive forever

[SnowedIn]

These are chilling...😬 But thank you for such a thoughtful response!

[CateM]

Losing someone I care about, loud sudden noises (especially a fire alarm), but most of all, dying in vain

[SnowedIn]

Wisdom in that last one.

[CateM]

Thanks for the MHO

[NathanDavis]

- losing someone

- not being able to help it

- not being able to help them...

[SnowedIn]

So well said; thank you.

[NathanDavis]

are you allergic to bees... I still do not know if I am allergic to them, or wasps, I should probably find out while at the city and near drugstores, lol

[SnowedIn]

Not to bees. Haven't been stung by a wasp which may explain some of my fear.

[Lliam]

Losing my wife.
No home.
No fuel or electricity.

[SnowedIn]

This.

[Lliam]

Thanks for the MHO, bro.

[dustybiker]

•Being taken from my family.
•Suffering.
•Something large moving in front of my bike/something happening to my bike at speed, especially in traffic.

[SnowedIn]

Great (and scary) imagery in that last bullet.

[dustybiker]

Yes. Good practice for high-speed breaking. Squeeze, don’t pull.

[Mimi_loves_her]

• The dark
• being alone unless I’m sad
• Random really loud bangs (like random fireworks or just fireworks in general)
• everyone hates me (fear of not having anyone)

[SnowedIn]

So well said! Funny how you captured such a human thing with regard to being alone: it has the ability to be desperately wanted (when we're sad) or feared (the other times)! Thanks for sharing!

[MendaciousMarxist]

• bacteria, parasites, or viruses
• choking or drowning
• beards

[SnowedIn]

These are GREAT! :)

[MendaciousMarxist]

is it weird I have specific events/reasons behind of all these?

[SnowedIn]

I don't think that's weird at all.

[MendaciousMarxist]

thaaanks :D

[TrueConfection]

Spiders

Losing a child

Losing my husband

[SnowedIn]

So true, these.

[DancingQueen16]

1. Public embarrassment

2. Snakes

3. Spiders

[SnowedIn]

SUCH a GREAT response! Thank you. And, yeah, public embarrassment -- well said!

[Dnice1]

Extremely loud noises like nearby thunder

Jump scares

And that's about it

[SnowedIn]

I used to be scared of thunder. Then I was out sailing in a storm and sort of embraced it. "Jump scares" -- love it. Thank you for sharing!

[JPresidente]

Fear of heights, fear of enclosed spaces and drowning.

[SnowedIn]

Fascinating! Thank you for sharing.

[JPresidente]

You bet. 👍

[NerdInDenial]

It’s just one thing: no money

[SnowedIn]

Very legit! Thanks for sharing.
