I LOVE the beach. I'll swim in the water all day long. I'm not afraid of animals, but sadly enough, I am afraid of.. seaweed. I freak out if it touches me, and I always play out these weird scenarios in my head where so much seaweed will surround me and get wrapped around me that I won't be able to handle it and it'll pull me out to sea.

I'm afraid of spiders, but that's a pretty normal fear.

I'm also afraid of drains. I don't even know if this has a name, as I have yet to find one for it. I avoid pool drains. I hate cleaning the sink. I'm even too afraid to put my feet too close to the drain in the shower, and I find myself looking back at it several times while I'm in there. I don't know what I think is going on behind me, but apparently I'm afraid of something!

I love how I was on swim teams for 10 years, but I'm afraid of drowning in the ocean, and getting sucked into a pool drain

Drains kinda freak me out too. Eww. I think it's the unknown. Who the hell knows what's lurking in there. Also, getting sucked into pool ones. OMG I saw an article about kids getting stuck to some pump or drain in hot tubs and pools and there were pictures holy cow, I almost died.

I get panicky when I'm underwater and a raft or something floats over me.
I also don't like crowds very much.

I'm not really scared of this, but I really have an aversion to it: Food in bulk. Don't ask my why, but it just bothers me! Haven't traced the root of that, yet....

Men who look like or dress like they've seen the softer side of Sears a few too many times. :P

It scares when I'm floating somewhere and I float over something, like the drain in the pool. Whenever that happens I get all tense and can't float any more. One time when that happened my foot went down and landed on the drain grate, and that really freaked me out. I have no idea why I'm scared of this stuff.

Because you are afraid of getting sucked under by the drain and drowning :P

Oh now, don't be scared of the big standard poodles! I had one for years and they are really very sweet dogs. Mine was so good natured, but he was afraid of thunder.

Back to the question - I'm horribly afraid of frogs. I don't even like Kermit very much (even though he isn't terribly froggy)

I'm terrified of poodles. Not the little ones, but the big freaky ones. I forget what they are called.
lol they are called giant poodles hahaha (we used to have one- i hated him but thats because he was a jerk (yea i know... lol)

water I can't see through.....
yup- i'm the same way- i HATE swimming in lakes and stuff- and the instant anything touches my foot- i start screaming/freaking out/actingl ike a total wuss and hightail it out of the water (and i'm spending the summer at a lake.. yea real smart right?)

i used to be afraid of open water (like in a boat on a river or ocean- and i live right near the hudson) but then i joined the crew team... so being in a boat thats only like 2 feet across helped me to get over that fear....

Any loud and sudden noise (lightning striking, balloons popping, buses backfiring, etc)
dude me too- especially balloons... its not like i'm afraid of the noise- though its loud... its like... the ANTICIPATION of it...

Haha, no. Actually I think I'm more afraid that something creepy is going to come out of it. Stupid fear but there it is.

i hate open waters. i'm afraid of the ocean cause i might get sucked in and won't get out. or falling in the ocean/lake and who knows what the hell is underneath me. when i was about 12, i went camping at a lake and my older bro said "be careful going out there in the water. the old trees are going to catch your leg and your gonna drown." thanks bro so whenever i go in lakes or rivers or the ocean, i get freaked out if anything touches me.

Little fish in lakes or rivers...I freak out that they are going to bite my toes...I am ok in the ocean but that is it...makes float trips interesting for me and my poor boyfriend

I am also scared of hyper dogs...I had a dog when I was little that was really hyper that would knock me down and clothes-line me with his chain when he was outside.

BUGS. How could I forget bugs? I hate them and freak out when they come around. Especially those horrible beetle/june bug things. YUCK!
