I’m kinda curious. I kinda feel like a pussy, but when I’m in bed at night I sometimes get afraid of the dark. Mainly cause it makes me think of stuff like home invasions or existentialism. I legit sleep better if the room I’m in has a lock. I know it’s irrational but I’m somewhat worried that dates would laugh at me.
How about you?

Bridges. I have a lot of trouble walking over long bridges.
Hmm, don’t think I’ve heard of that one before? How do you rationalize it?
I have no idea. But I've been forcing myself to walk over bridges lately
My biggest fears are all social. Worrying that I'll look like a joke in front of people, won't be able to perform sexually or that I'll end up isolated and alone. I generally don't tell dates as you can imagine lol.
Growing old
All bugs and birds
Bugs, specifically spiders, and the dark are my worst ones. I even sleep with a dim light on cause I can’t stand pitch darkness, I’m 19 so it’s pretty embarrassing.
I peak my blinds up slightly so that some street light gets in. :/
That would scare me too much, I hate the idea of something looking in 😬
Having a 2nd floor bedroom helps
I do, but I have a tree outside my window and my brain seems to like picturing things in it
I slept in a basement bedroom (a really nice basement bedroom) in an AirBNB last year - aside from being too tall for the bed, it was pretty comfy and cozy. Pitch-black, but I could hear the water rushing through the pipes, and sometimes hear my hosts walking about.
Probably helped that it was a very nice house, and the family was really cool.
Bees. I hate bees. Yes, I know they're pretty essential for the environment and all but I hate them. I'll always freak out if one is near me. Last year while mowing the lawn I ran over an underground beehive and I don't think I've ever ran faster. (I also make someone else do that part because I'm not mowing that ever again) I haven't been on a date yet, but if we're outside in the summer he'll find out eventually lol.
I used to be terrified of bees, until I realized the average bee is pretty docile, and if you leave him to his business, he'll generally leave you to yours. I still get wary around them, but we generally coexist if need be, now.
Wasps are the real assholes. Those fuckers are mean.
My biggest fears has to be falling in love with someone who only wants me for my body and dying awake
Wasps. Snakes.Lack of a fulfilling and joyful life.
I expect all three to be unleashed on me over the course of the evening so that I may fight them, overcome them, and become stronger if this date's going to be successful.

Spiders. If I see one in my house... it pretty much becomes a military operation to get rid of it... planning, preparation, ambush, and possibility of PTSD afterwards.
I fucking hate spiders. I woke up the other day in my bed right next to my pillow. I have never got out of bed quicker.
Jumping spiders are definitely annoying as hell.
I have no problem killing those suckers. Though, if it's out of harm's way, somewhere innocuous, I'll leave it be. There's a little one that's made its home on the outside of my bathroom radiator, in direct line of sight of the toilet. I blow on the web sometimes to annoy it.
