not crazy

Quote From: cassie2_5

It is crazy but I am afraid (terrified) of small animals like hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs etc.    Lucky for me my kids have not brought one home !!!    I can not explain it but I am  very afraid of these type of animals.   I am afraid of mice and of course rats but I just do not know why the fear of domestic rodents.    Family friends of ours love to let their hamsters run around when we are over there to watch my cry and shake.   I am ashamed to admit this as mother of two. 

  

   I think it is wrong for some one to play on your fears.. No matter how silly they can sound to others they are real  think yours is bad read mine...being scared that you are gonna be buried alive one day...now that is just stupid.. I'm not dumb I know it can't happen.. the next time they let those nasty creatures run lose just to see your pain  picture your self stomping on there little beady eyed heads.. maybe then you will at least be able to smile..do not be ashamed i think  your fear is normal, mine on the other hand is not. I know I'm the only nut out there scared of the coffin closing and waking up..it has me nervous just thinking about it..i will trade you fears...LOL....

Personally I think it is cruel that your "friends" let their hamsters run around when you are there knowing that you fear them.  And even worse that they amuse themselves with your reaction-crying and shaking.  Are these people truly your friends? While they may not be afraid of rodents, it is a very real fear for you and they shouldn't joke about it.  How would they like it if you tossed a snake (or whatever else they are afraid of) onto your living room floor when they come over?
