Why Asset dear, what do you think may happen? I don't know what it's supposed to do even if it does it correctly:-$

I went to my best friend's father's funeral and I sat behing his mother. All through the funeral she sobbed saying 'My boy, my boy. I was supposed to go first.' I'm welling up just thinking about it.

My biggest fear is having to bury my child.

Rats .... dont like 'em at all.

There's a creepycrawlie think in the corner I'm going to have to do something about before I go to bed in case it (big fear coming) falls in my mouth in the night and chokes me!

Not sure what my biggest fear would be now.... really don't like snakes though, menacing looking things.

I used to be terrified of the idea of being trapped in a burning building when I was a kid - had repeated nightmares about it, my poor parents used to have to get up to me most nights when I was a toddler, god knows how they put up with me.

Actually having children might be my biggest fear, but at least I can do something to avoid that one!!

Yes - read the thread on how wonderful it is...

[indiepanda]

lol, I think some of that would put me off more! I'm sure it's great for some people, just don't think it's for me. And being single and the wrong side of 35 it's largely academic anyway.

No wonder you are a threatened species, you just don't try to help yourself indiepanda;-)

My full name is SteveT'panda, by 'eck, from Yorkshire way, and if you think that 35 is too old to have a full litter of baby pandas I'll have you know I sired my last litter at 44 'appen and she has just passed her eleven plus, at the tender age of 18.

Now if that there, aint a success story I'd like to know what was.

Any more of this 'ere faint hearted 'can't do it I 'ave an 'eadache' nonsense and I'll expect you round 'ere at your most fertile part of the decade and we shall soon eradicate all these 'academic ideas' wi' a seein' to we'll never forget.

An if that aint the best offer a critter as 'ad t' this side o' a full moon, I'll eat my bamboo by'eck if I won't.

Greatest fear - retaining my thinking mind but losing control of my body - being unable to walk, talk, see or hear. It is the ultimate lock up.

...Co-Sign.

Selfishly,death itself.When I get REALLY old,I will have to do a very convincing job on myself to persuade me all will be well and there will be a future after death.Fear of leaving loved ones behind including pets that no-one can explain where "Daddy" has gone to.A terrible thought

As I enjoy life thoroughly and am so grateful for the miracle of life itself I fear getting depressed when I am old and can only see the Cemetary Gates approaching fast!

Lol, now I am scared ;-). *scampers off to hide in the chinese mountains*

Seriously, I didn't mean 35 is too old anyway, but ruling out single parenthood as an option (for me) there is that minor detail of needing to find the right guy first and wanting to be able to enjoy some time together before thinking about having a family. And I have my reasons for not wanting to be a parent (nothing sinister just personal).

is fear itself.
