What's your biggest fear ?

[Merced]

I fear never finding love.

 

[fetus]

Being abandoned. Left. Betrayed.

 

[Also]

I have a phobia that I'm so afraid of revealing for fear that people will torture me with it. Even writing out the official name makes me sick so I'll share another, more common one. Water. I have a fear of drowning or being stranded in the middle of the ocean. I can't swim, I choke on water almost every time I drink it, I slip in the shower, it's only a matter of time before it defeats me.

 

[Lady Lazarus]

This is it and that is all.

 

[Tellenbach]

Some obnoxious person with a loud pet moves in next door. 2nd biggest fear is getting injured and not being able to wipe my own ass.

 

[Kanra Jest]

Being alone. Abandoned. Screwing up, rubbing the wrong way, making bad decisions. Whatever. Not meet needs.

I have manners and can be polite but I'm still a sarcastic smartass with an emotional blind spot who pushes the envelope on teasing, dry humor( can very much be misunderstood or taken too personally), and can be a bit brutally honest about things I shouldn't appropriately be. So one day who knows. Could end up alone. And I never know how I feel about someone until it's too late. I am also graysexual. On and on.

Oh, and also even with any attempted friends sooner or later I just drop contact and lose all interest or end up no idea how to get it going and it all fades away. So any "friends" I have usually don't last.

Thus, hello paranoia. Fear of not fitting for anyone, screwing up. Ending up alone. I find it hard to trust anyone with myself in any sense at this point since everyone fades away.

Never experiencing love

 

[hjgbujhghg]

Being trapped in one place or in one scenario for something that seems like forever without having a chance to escape... That's why I can't stand elevators or small spaces at all.

 

[chubber]

Being screwed over, lied to.

 

[RedAmazoneFriendZone]

Losing memory. Getting hurt (in my feelings). Betrayal. Losing my inner wisdom and inner security. Being manipulated in my insecurities.

But of course we, fellows ESFP never ever suffer or have fears...all those fears were just a joke

 

[Sil]

Not achieving my long term wants.

 

[Puffypolma]

Mine sounds lame but, I fear of growing old.

 

[meowington]

Mine sounds lame but, I fear of growing old.

Lame but pretty universal I think

 

[Snakewise]

On one end of the spectrum I most fear never finding love. On the other end I'm really rather terrified of deep water. I can blame Jaws for that, I'm sure. Get me to play a video game with underwater levels and sea creatures? Nope, not gonna make it.

 

[Galena]

-job loss
-terminal illness
-being a victim of abuse and/or assault
-being a shitty person without being aware of it

On one hand, they're not uncommon things at all, so you can't call them unreasonable. On the other hand, they're particularly poor choices of fears because worrying too much could weaken me for the next inevitable moment when one comes knocking. Also, that universality makes it much harder to talk one/oneself down from worrying about them.

 

[Tilt]

Financial instability
Being trapped
Not being accepted
Being ugly
Not having control of my emotions

 

[EJCC]

Being the opposite of what I want to be, seeing no way to fix myself, and losing everyone's respect and goodwill.

A variant of "being alone and unloved" -- but more like "being alone, unworthy, unloved, incapable, and worthless".

 

[Flâneuse]

In short, being a bad person, according to my standards of what that entails. Having no strength of character and being disconnected from love and my sense of what is important. Living a meaningless life as a weak, undeveloped, shitty person who is led by their lower nature, especially when it has harmful consequences for other people. (i.e. having greed, fear, and/or apathy as the main forces in my life instead of compassion and a sense of higher purpose.) Having others know it if I were a crappy person and having to deal with their judgment would be almost as bad.
