I have quite a few I generally keep people at arms length because it's hard for me to understand people and how they'll react and how much they really like me etc. My girlfriend is the first person that I really trust and would rely on for something really important besides my mom I mean. One of my fears is people judging me for being disabled and not having a career which has happened plenty even when I was working people were judging me for my job not being prestigious enough just looking down on me. It's uncomfortable because for a guy this is like 80-90% of what people wanna know about you and how they treat you is based on your job. I have other fears too most of them are about me reading things wrong socially pissing others off. Or when things go well at first but then when it matters they don't actually like me. When relationships actually get tested I'm afraid that I was actually alone all along and so I'd rather not do it, which then leaves me more alone lol. But it's based on my decision at least. I've been trying to work on these things for a long time I'll keep going and we'll see if things improve :) I'm starting with a new therapist in July because the old one helped me a lot over the years but with social things he was useless. If I told him a problem he'd start talking about how people suck anyway and everything is going to shit and stuff which is not exactly helpful so I switched now which was not easy because most therapists are completely full but I found someone and I hope it works out well :)

People misinterpreting my actions and coming across in a way that wasn't intended. It's not an active fear that I think about, but when it does happen, then I immediately try to fix it. This can be whether someone thinks I'm interested in them, lying, angry, bragging, and other stuff like that.

There’s only one fear I have in social situations- that maybe I didn’t cover my birthmarks well enough on my face and maybe I scare someone by thinking I am injured, since my birthmark is light blue discoloration on my face, which sadly has been growing and getting darker since 11, the sun and stress makes it darker. It’s not a medical condition, it’s just a cosmetic thing. It’s not hereditary and literally no one has it but me in my family and it hasn’t been much of a hinderance for me to still be as attractive as I would be without them, but honestly I always thought I would be much more happy if I didn’t fear going out with my hair tied up high and not being scared of people staring at me as if I’ve just been a victim of a domestic violence.

One is I'm getting a little old for the young people's bible study groups so I've sometimes stressed over whether I'd have opportunities to meet loyal and nice friends my age. I've always preferred to socialize one on one and not as a group cause I find friends gained in groups can be lost easily through reputation problems if one gas lighter or liar decides to make you an enemy but friends built through one on one contact are easier to maintain.

This shit actually horrifies me to the point that it gives me nightmares, but it's gotta be one of these: I'm getting married, met the woman of my dreams, we've planned the whole ceremony out. I'm standing at the altar and my wife-to-be freaks out and leaves, or she shows up and tells me to fuck off like it was all a huge joke. My girlfriend starts having a side relationship with her coworker, we get married, and she keeps banging the dude on the side in my bed.  I'm worried that some asshole is going to use one of these AI programs to falsify evidence that I'm a racist or some shit to try and get me fired.

I fear all people. But I seem to be shy with girls that want do thing with me. I also fear not making it in life. I feel dark and evil in side. I fear that if I had a wife I need to protect her if she was pregnant. (but that one almost came true cause I know a girl that was pregnant and got ran over she is ok ) maybe that why I think I need to protect someone. I fear not being able to keep up at work no matter how fast I go.

I fear protester not understanding me and being to many of them and them beating me up. I fear not have a lot of money like not being able to pay the bills. that fear mix with me not being able to work fast to keep up at work is like fear of get ran over and slam drive down the free way and not being able to drive fast to get away.

I fear women hateing me for thing I do.

Lol you just gave me a new anxiety. I would trip tf out of a pregnant woman asked me to do that. I'd feel obligated, but for some reason it seems inappropriate. I don't know...

I don't really have social fear. Realistically. Obviously I don't want to be harassed by an entire party of people or kicked out of an event for whatever reason, but I'm not in fear of it happening. Kind of laugh at the times those things did happen.

I don't think I'd ever act weak in a situation that demands strength. I got a lot of practice for that. But I'm worried that I may act irresponsibly in a situation that demands responsibility. For example, if I try race car driving, I am worried that I might make a mistake that kills innocent bystanders and not just me.

This girl is age 35 and pregnant and ask me if I wanted to put my hand down her pants and feel her baby moving, but I refused she is shady character also she tried to steal my cell phone. I pray God keeps all demons and devils away from me. So my social fear would be the same as yours.

Anyone coming up to me who's not an immigrant. I don't trust them, they're not sincere, and I have to try REALLY HARD in an instant not to end up on the national news. My methods came from time overseas. Many have NO IDEA how close they came to something they can't even imagine, nor bear. Having to hide it daily takes a LOT of energy. I do my best to not have to open my front door if I don't have to.

As a woman that has been pregnant 4 times. I never wanted anyone besides my husband to touch my belly. Even doctors touching it made me feel weird

Strangers have told me something dark they went through or is still going through, and i never know what to say because im bad at talking with people im not close with, let alone people i dont know. So i get nervous and always feel like i never say the right thing.

I have never seen the pregnant woman ask someone to touch her stomach. The other way around lots, but not her ask for it. I don't have any social fears.

annabananna · Answer

I guess verbal attack. Lol I do understand the stumach thing. I thought it was kinda freaky when my sister was pregnant. I’ve only liked touching my own pregnant tummy.

fonduegirl · Answer

That people will touch my hair. They'd spit on my shoes. The "why are you single?" questions, ugh. And somebody will humiliate me. The list goes on.

WanderingLoveWizard · Answer

Pregnant women are probably sick and tired of everyone touching their bellies. That's a silly fear

this question makes me wonder, ehat would happen if a prego woman lays on her stomach?

jahaims · Answer

I grew up in a bad area so I would say a dangerous situation unfolding near me. It's not as much of a fear as it is awareness of what could happen.
