Default What are you afraid of?

So, we all have fears, unless we're talkin' to our girlfriends, so what's yours? Is it a true phobia, or an irrational fear (like fear of squirrels )? Since it's my thread, I'll go first.

I have a fear the Master Post Whore (MPW) will get me in my sleep, then I wake up, go to the CORNER and all is well again .

Seriously, I don't like heights, they make me do this--->

I kid you not: Radiators, specifically hot water based heaters used in old houses/churches. I had a nightmare as a 'lill kid that they were after me. Since then I just don't care to be near them. Some sort of childhood trama or something.

I second that one...and to add to it, a similar small and unpredicable creature: children under the age of 7. (thanks to ltweintz and cloudnine for the metaphor)

Other than that, I think that I am afraid of dying, but I am too scared to find out.

Same Here. I do OK as long as I can see the bottom but once it gets deeper than that I freak out and have every shark attack thought there is. Wife loves to snorkel all over when we are in Kauai but last time a huge ass Sea Turtle came up in my peripheral vision and my heart just about stopped for 30 seconds or so. Screw that!

I'm afraid of needles. I once had acupucture done by a very good doctor. I only felt the pinch of the needle but not penatration of the skin. It didn't hurt at all. But seeing 20 some needles all over me just freaked me out and I couldn't help my muscles twitching, and that hurt a lot.

Me too ! No problem with spiders but my wife is terrified of them, then again she has no problems with heights.
