Thank you. I suppose that there are some that will see my post as nothing more than a " Look at me " type of thing...but that's their problem. I don't go looking for sympathy. My MAIN reasons for posting it were 1) To give a woman who says she wants a " real " guy a look at what that really means. and 2) Because I KNOW that there are others out there like me. I want them to know that they aren't alone. Thank you. And I am afraid of Synchronized swimmers |

Because I KNOW that there are others out there like me. I want them to know that they aren't alone. Like everyone said, you were brave to put that out there. I just wanted you to know that your efforts are appreciated. |

I usually don't expose myself like that. |

I usually don't expose myself like that. Don't be "sheepish" about what you did. You are a REAL person, not just some s/n that types words on a screen. I think too many of us forget that that there are some REAL people behind those names. Maybe the world would be a better place if we all had the courage to become vulnerable with others and not be afraid. I admire the courage you had to post that. |

Driving under overpasses as big semi trucks go across them with loads of logs or pipes or some other load that is strapped on with chains. I always fantasize that the load will break and come crashing over the side of the overpass down onto the cars going under it (me). Has been a fear as long as I can remember.
And, driving alongside a semi, I won't do it, I pass them or stay well behind. I worry about a lug nut coming loose from their wheel and flying through my windshield. I know, I know, well you did say "Irrational" after all. ![]() |

My irrational fear is driving over a high bridge and going over the side. I will "white knuckle" the steering wheel until all the way across. Irrational thing is I have no fear of heights or driving anywhere else. Yeah, I know that feeling, I've never liked driving over them myself. ![]() ![]() |

Or driving over a high bridge during a bad windstorm when it whips you around and you change lanes without intending to. Guess that isn't irrational though, sorry.

Me too, really scary, especially if you have a truck coming up along side, or it is only 2 lanes and you are suddenly in the other lane with oncoming traffic.
Have a good night Suz, I am off to bed. Take care. ![]() |

It's not the lug nuts that you have to worry about. It's the tread coming off the tires that is a bigger concern. AT times, the retread bond fails and the entire tread will come off the tire. |
