    Spiders, but that's fairly common. My weird fears are utility knifes, superglue, and fish hooks.

    I have none at all.

    I would poo my pants if I came face to face with a large primate or bear though. But that's rational! :laugh:

    I have a few...

    1. Co-workers accidently getting a peek at my coin slot! (aka plumber butt!). I've since started tanning so I don't blind anyone.

    2. My driving skills (or lack). Wait, this may actually be a rational fear.

    3. Bugs biting/stinging my feet. During a recent trip to India, I was actually literally CHASED by big black ants. :frown: CHASED yo! CHASED!

    4. Anyone catching a glimpse of my bare belly. Or worse: bare belly button (not quite at my goal yet, heh).

    That amber will post another thread even worse than the last. Oh, wait, maybe that's a rational fear.

    ^This is a VERY rational fear.

    Water bugs.. I have a funny story about me naked, the shower and alot of screaming. Well..its funny now anyway...lol.

    My teeth Falling out: Sometimes I have a dream about all of my teeth coming out and me putting them back in. Terrifies me to lose my teeth. Im so happy that Ive been blessed with great teeth.

    Hahahah Ive had those dreams too, I hate waking up thinking I have no teeth! LOL

    spiders. but that's not irrational because they're little packages of death wrapped in scary.

    When I was in kindergarden, during nap time, the mean girls put the pet tarantula on my head........ you can see where that phobia came from....

    I used to be terrified of falling through my sliding glass door and my toddler drowning in the pool because I was dead or unconcious on the patio....REALLY RANDOM...really irrational...............

    oh and if a hellicopter was flying overhead (I live outside LA...its frequent) I swore a fugitive was in my backyard!!! and would cry on the phone to my hubs about it...............the awesome thing...he actually listened to me. now thats love!

    This is going to sound funny, but mine is Bollywood. I don't know exactly what it is, but when I hear the music or see everyone start to dance together it freaks me out haha.

    My irrational fear is getting cheated on. Considering how my boyfriend has no female friends, does not work with any females, and rarely even speaks to any other females outside of his family, I would say this is highly irrational...

    I have a lot, actually.

    Spiders - If there's one in the house, I can't go to bed until I know it's dead.

    Sharks - I won't go in the ocean over my waist.

    Cotton - I won't take the cotton ball out of a bottle of pills and I won't eat or touch cotton candy. It's the dry texture, it freaks me out and makes my teeth hurt.

    Heights - Although, I don't think this is an "irrational" fear as most ppl are afraid of heights.

    I used to be alone with the Cotton... A few months back there was a similar thread post on here and I mentioned it... People came out of the wood works... So nice to know I'm not alone in my crazy fear of Cotton!!
