just wondering if anyone is willing to say what is their greatest fear and to see if anyone can answer a question thats been bugging me for months.
Mine include arachnophobia and drowning.

the question is:
Why is it more frightening to ask a girl out than to jump from 5000' ?
 
If someone with multiple personality disorder threatens suicide, is it a hostage situation?

I don't like crowds!! I could spend the rest of my
life alone on an island and it would not be a
problem!! Kimber is the same way, we need,
twin islands!!

The dark.  Actually being alone in the dark.  If I can't see it it bothers me.  Especially vast expanses of darkness.  Also large bodies of water.  Mostly besause after 20 feet or whatever it gets dark.

I don't like thunderstorms and large crowds. I used to hate hights until I went up Skylon Tower in Niagera Falls. These weren't sever as a phobia as they don't disrupt my life and make me cower in my basement.

I'd have to agree with you there Scorpion

Kittens that wave scare the CRAP out of me Steve-O!  Grin

I'm not fond of large crowds either, but it's more of a discomfort than a fear. I think my worst fear is speaking in front of a group of people (large or small, it doesn't matter).

Seriously, I suffer from a mild to moderate degree of OCD, but it doesn't make my life a shambles like it can for some people.

I'm claustrophobic...........very.

Enclosed small places are my worst nightmare.
Flying or being on the ocean are great. Let's just say I'll never be a miner or a submariner.

Because the ground won't reject you........ Grin Grin

Sounds like you may have a bit of a 'complex' as far as girls go, Craig. but I'm sure you probably know that, mate.

To be perfectly honest, I was never all that confident either, but for some reason, the few girlfriends I had before I was married and the ones that I've been involved with since (3 marriages), have approached me.
Of course, as soon as I was married the first time at 19, they started coming out of the woodwork.  Grin Grin Wink
