What are some "scary things" to you?

Anxiety about my new girl friend, and the future of the relationship. We like each other, and she is OK with me seeing other women. She can see other men.

My anxiety is that I feel like I would be cheating on her to date other women. Though in my mind I know I have to, in order to make sure she is the one I like the best.

I told her this, and she is still OK with it.

But I haven't asked any other women out. And the clock is ticking toward the 'moment of no return' when we will be 'stuck with each other'.

Anyone understand this ?
 

I can't say that I'm afraid specifically of any particular thing, but I'm certainly wary of a number of things - e.g. getting to close to a poisonous snake, swimming in the ocean (after "Jaws" I vowed to never swim in the ocean again). I'm a bit of an adrenaline junkie, so I always took calculated chances.
Other issues, I've kind of come to the viewpoint that I'm not going to waste any of my precious time I have left worrying in advance about them. I'll deal with them when and if they happen. This, of course, doesn't mean I haven't taken any measures to cope with them if they occur. I definitely have.
 
Sometimes while starting to fall asleep, I don't like and am afraid of how my mind invents weird stuff that I have trouble understanding. It creates scenarios that are very foreign to "who" I think I am (at least my identity/s through the day.) I tense up and have to try to relax. It doesn't last long, because I fall asleep. Strange...no?

Good Call!! I drove my old beat up car in the 70’s to watch in theater with my brothers girlfriend who lived about 20 miles away. That drive home alone on those dark windy back roads home were one of the scariest in my life. Lol Kept looking in the back seat. Good thing that old car didn’t break down. Lol
 
Not too much scares me since I was a child and afraid of the dark. I had a small scare the other day with a driver in a pick-up truck. People have no problem passing a slow driver on our rural roads. One just waves the other around....no problems. I was stopped on the roadside trying to identify a shrub with ripening berries when this pick-up came speeding around me nearly taking my drivers door. Then the fool put his truck in reverse and I waited until he was even with my car and I slowly drove forward. He then stepped on the gas and again passed me, nearly hitting my drivers door again. He sped away and I admit I was a little shaken given crazy things people are doing these days.
 
Working is getting scarier and scarier and harder and harder on me. We have no boss. We had one, she quit, got one in as she left, she lasted a week, blamed the staff for her departure. Now one of my co-workers stated we have a corporate piece of nasty in the building filling in and she's got "pet peeves."
