Everyone has fears. Whether they be ones that others have or things that you are afraid of that doesn't even make sense to you. What are your 5 greatest fears.

Mine are:

1. Fire
2. Drowning
3. Being Abducted
4. Rats or any Rodents
5. Being trapped somewhere
 
Nice idea for a thread. While I do have some I am reluctant to put mine in here because I don't want them laughed at.
 
If someone is afraid or even terrified of something, they can't help it. It is REAL for them. I am not suggesting you type them here anyway. I am saying though that if someone laughs at someone else's fears, they aren't a very nice person, because I could be my life that everyone on ALL and everyone each of us knows has at least one thing they are afraid of.

I hope whatever your fears are, you get relief from them somehow.
 
1. Dogs
2. A nuclear war
3. going to jail for something I didn't do
4. My football team getting relegated
5. Rejection from women

Who are you kidding?
 
My neighbours
Dying alone
Not being able to pay the bills
Being stuck in this house for the rest of my life
Gaining weight
 
Dying or becoming incapacitated while my child is still young
Something horrible happening to my child
Losing my job and unable to support my child

And that's it, really. Anything else isn't that bad.

Also, don't feed the trolls!

Ahem...then in advance, I'm terribly sorry for posting.

1. Professional failure leading to poverty
2. Having all my property stolen
3. My apartment burning down
4. Dementia/Alzheimer's
5. Nuclear holocaust

...sounds about right.
 
1 end up in a psychiatric hospital against my will
2 being beaten up by the police for no reason
3 spending my life alone in a room
4 having everyone I love turn away from me for no reason
5 flying / parachute jumping

As I already met four of my greatest fears, I just need to go jump with a parachute to be completely fearless

4. My football team getting relegated

Haha! I can relate to that. It's a very real prospect this season.
Wouldn't quite class it as one of my greatest fears. I've been through it before.

Anyway, back on topic.

1. Spending the rest of my life alone.
2. Massive/Nuclear war
3. Leaving the EU
4. What the Tories will do next
5. Summer
 
1. Impaired brain functioning as a result of head injury or a disease.
2. Going crazy and do horrible things.
3. Never find anyone, spend the rest of my life in loneliness and pain.
4. Being paralyzed and kept alive against my will.
5. Fall in love and have that special someone being raped or killed.

I think you might survive, couple of decent signings in this window !

We have, but we DESPERATELY need a striker and probably a left back too.
Who's your team?
 
1. What happened in Cologne recently becoming the norm in Europe.
2. Europe being destroyed.
3. Environmental damage to the planet worsening over time.
4. Mass extinction of animal species.
5. The West losing it's dominance.
 
I worry about getting hurt at work or on my motorcycle and being paralyzed
Have told several people to take me out with a pillow if that happens
 
1. A huge world catastrophe
2. An incurable deadly disease (me or loved ones)
3. Lose my eyesight
4. Horrible accident
5. To be left completely alone, no family even...
 
Obviously, I'm not kidding you! My belief is if someone won't express their shortcomings (and some people mistakenly think fears are), they are just running away from them.

Please write whatever you want now. I am not going to waste my precious time reading it or writing back, as it appears your mind is a closed one.

Dammit, you're right. When you got me you got me.

Ok, let me try.

1. I don't like heights.

2. I am terrified of spending the rest of my life alone. Although none of you believe this I think I am as good as anyone else and I deserve to have someone in my life to spend time with.

3. I don't like snakes and bugs. Where I live there are no snakes so that's fine but I don't like bugs. I have seen the movie Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom countless times but only once did I watch the scene with all of those crawling insects. Only once. Each time I watch it now I look away. If anyone has seen the movie you know what I mean. I'm sure people will laugh about this in here but you know what? Screw them.

4. Being in a room and have everyone laugh at me. Luckily this has never happened to me. But it's still a fear.

5. Having my knees completely fail me.

I hope that is what people here will consider opening up.

Who the hell do you think you are? You don't know honeysuckle about me and you never tried to either. I just don't care to believe people that automatically decide not to give me a chance. That goes for everyone that does this to me. I said before you had a great idea here. I honestly don't know what else to say to you because you never say a **** thing to me.

By the way, my time is precious too.

Hull City.

I know we aren't going to get relegated this season, we may in fact go up. But every time we are in the premier league, I always worry where the next point is coming from.
