My greatest fear would be fear of rejection within a relationship. It is funny how that fear of being hurt or losing someone continues even after I am with someone for awhile.

When I first read the OP's post I immediately thought of meeting a girl who is really a guy, lol, but that would be really unlikely to happen. My radar is pretty good for weeding out these types, or those deemed mentally ill. -Mike

Judging from the comments on the forum a man's greatest fear is he will buy her dinner and still not get sex. Or for both men & women, that the profile and photos won't match the person who shows up on their date. Hah, ha!

My greatest dating fear is I won't ever find the right match no matter how hard I try.

My greatest fear is that she falls in love with me, and i don't feel the same. A broken heart is the root of serious violence when it comes to dating.

NCPantherFan,
While I thank you for you post and warning, I don't think this is the proper venue for this comment. Whether it be accurate or not. Good luck.


I do have to say this post has made me feel like I am truly normal in my fears. For that I thank you for your answers.

my biggest fear is that I might eventually become jaded with dating altogether and miss out on possibly meeting someone great cause of it. I doubt I'll let that happen but still, it's a realistic fear.

1. Dated a girl (one date) that had a history of sleeping with the guy, then screaming rape and damanding money to say she lied when the police arrive.

2. Went out with a girl that was sweet (or so she seemed) but while we were dating - met a guy in a bar, slept with him, then told me in an email she was moving in with himn (this was two days later).

My greatest fear? I am looking for a long term relationship. I am terrified that I will put two or three years of work into the relationship, marry her, then have her turn on me. Oh, wait that happened too. She wanted 40K to go away quietly.

I guess my greatest fear is being with someone that does not care as much about me and I do about them. Or, it could be marrying someone that is so headstrong and argumentative that life with them is a nightmare of arguments and fights over nothing. I really do not ever want to be a house at war.

Unsolvedmystery,

Very well said. I hope I can remain realistic with hopeful optimism.

I pretty much have no fear. I've been through the worst already. If you live in fear you don't live life, you watch it pass you by.

I don't have any fears when it comes to dating. The worst thing that can possibly happen is if me and her have no chemistry or physical attraction. But other than that, no fears.

Wow, Barbee. Just had that happen. This guy tells me that I have his heart and not to run with it after a week, then today says we're moving too fast- like it was me. It'd been about 2 weeks. lol- I don't know what the hell happened.

hahah qfychc, some girl i never met tried to do that same thing... starts telling me everything about herself... then starts telling me what she wants... asks me stuff. Then I asked her if she wanted to hang out and go on a date at some point, she like went into a mental melt down and says we're moving too fast. I'm like "Whoa whoa... you can't finish the race before you even register." Short story even shorter, she totally went berserk and vanished. I'm just kinda like, "Whatever that was all about..."


That's one of the reasons I'm convinced there's way too many nutjobs hidden on this site.

Being manipulated, controlled, loss of identity.
Him cheating on me or lieing to me
Him leaving me with the kids
He will make fun of me talk bad about me behind my back

I have a few - but one major things that pops into my head is the fear of being caught up in someone else's drama.

That its a trap and a gang of muggers will mug me. You can laugh at this, but in my area there has been plenty of news about it. Plus con women or con men pretending to be women. Just tell people who you are going out with, where you are going, where the other person lives.

As for your bullet points:
*Romance and commitment itself. - not afraid of it
* Men/women fear of stalkers or the mentally unstable. - ha! I get the mentally unstable half of the time!
*The Gal that might very well be a guy ( trans-testicals). - eh not a fear if you look at the hands
*As a man, I'm afraid of very Little. - I'm afraid of a lot!!!
*Getting trapped into marriage. - my last girlfriend almost did that to me
*Merely approching a woman for fear of rejection. - I fear no rejection, because I've been rejected too many times to realize it doesn't hurt.
* Being falsy accused of rape or beating a woman. - happened to me! Girl lied about her age then told me her real age 4 months into dating. I tried to dump her and she told me she'd tell everyone I raped her. Tough telling people a virgin raped you.
*Fear of being attacked, raped or murdered. ( yes this can happen to men too). - Oh yeah all the time!
*Being manipulated, controlled, loss of identity. - I've been massively manipulated before by some pretty big lies.
*He/she will laugh at me. - Yeah I'll laugh at me too :-) I do some silly things!

Ok, here it is, I dont dance, I never have, I have no inclination to, I dont find it fun (being around it) , I dont like hip-hop, club, twosteppin, waltz etc. I have no sence of rhythme and I just lack the coordination or flexibility for it.

(yes I have tried classes, they are abysmal)
So the fear is, I loose out on dating because I dont dance.

Finding out the man I was dating had completely fabricated who and what he was.

I use to have a fear that all women were like my ex. It would be like the movies Halloween and The Nightmare on Elm Street. I feared the same nightmare with different characters.


Luckily I did manage to get over those fears.

If you are afraid of getting STDs maybe you are giving it up too quickly--men and woman should require a new partner to get tested TOGETHER, and not feel awkward about such request!!

- Getting that booty call minutes after popping some laxatives.
- Giggling when she then comes over and during sex (feeling how tense I am) innocently asks me to "let go".
- Letting go.
