So here I was, minding my own b'ness, encrypting some of my files, when suddenly, a huge spider (with a size of a closed fist) appears in my desk(I don't know how).

I only had time to grab my English notebook, and kill it. 20 rage hits later, I was finally in peace.


You see, I'm afraid of spiders.

That's nasty. I'm glad I'm not the one to clean that up :P

I usually just avoid my fears :P And if I can't.,.. then I just try to go through the moment as fast as I can.

My fear isn't something I can easily deal with because its not something I see everyday. In fact, I've only seen them in the flesh once or twice in my life, and I saw them when I was young and fearless, so I don't have to worry about that. Although, documentaries freak me out so I steer clear of the discovery channel xP

I extremely hate spiders, so if I see one, that spider will be in spider heaven about 10 seconds later.

The_manta fears fire.

My head almost caught on fire a few years back, long story, but yeah. I just kinda... keep my distance.

I don't have many fears.. My main fear would have to be getting shocked by electricity.. Idk why but it just always annoys the hell out of me when I get shocked and if I see let's say a spark when I'm plugging something in, I kind of back away xD

How I deal with my fears? Usually I study more of them and confront them. I used to be scared of spiders but I researched a bit about them and now I completely love them. As well as heights.. All I did was start going to hotels and being on the balcony a lot.. as well as skyscrapers and stuff.

Usually the way to deal with fears is confronting them.

Lol well, when I researched about spiders I learned that it's very rare for a spider to bite, and at the least kill, someone. Most spiders when they bite you you can just wash it with warm water and soap xD

Now if you fear them because you think they're ugly.. that's a whole other story..

I stay away from them, lil' droolin' b'stards.
I hate dogs.
If they're small enough and they get too close, I kick them.
I can't stand them; they're messangers from hell.

Fears you say? I have no fears, I'm fearless!
Ok, enough joking. Seriously, I have no fears, and if someone has one, he should deal with it, and see that it's not a big deal.
What do you exactly mean by saying you're afraid of spiders? Are you freaked out when you see them, or you just don't like them. Because, there is a difference. I, for example, am not afraid of anything particularly, but when I see a spider, I don't feel pleasant, but that doesn't mean I'm afraid of them.
If you get my point, you would understand that everyone should confront their fears, and see that it's not a big deal.

I'm afraid of the country of Romania. Not Romanians, but the landmass itself.

I live in the States, so I'm okay as long as plate tectonics don't interfere.

I face them with stoic determination, and when it gets to scary I run like a little girl.

Right.. I think that's mentally impossible.

Now physically maybe. The mind doesn't allow you to be fearless because your brain comes wit fears. Now that I got your attention.. being fearless maybe could be said in another way I guess. And maybe you can hold down yours fears very well but you still have fears.
