i used to be scared of spiders. i had a summer job in high school working outside. one morning there was a frog (or toad) minding it's own business and one of the guys made it quite obvious that he was scared of frogs and all of the other guys noticed it enough that they started picking it up and tossing it at him, to which he ran, screamed, and made it quite obvious he was was terrified. terrified! i did not partake, i just stayed quiet. that night after work i "found" a spider. i picked it up, let it crawl on my hands, arms, belly and legs. i did it for a long time, over an hour i'm sure - until my fear was gone. nobody !!!! was ever !!! going to terrify me the way they did to Brian that day. nobody !!! year after year, "playing" with different bugs, i am no longer scared of spiders or other bugs - i still don't like them, but i am confident that no one can sense i have a 'hesitation' with bugs ... and no one will ever tease or terrify me like Brian !!!
