I don't vacation on the water. I'm a pale-skinned redhead; I get sunburned out there. I'm a little frightened of the ocean, in fact. But I just know there's great drama out there.
I'm afraid of open bodies of water. I was in a glass-bottomed boat that broke a long time ago, so I've always been kind of freaked out.
I have a pathological terror of falling through ice. I nearly drowned once. I fell off a boat and got a cramp, and was rescued by an oil-rig diver, a great bear of a man who simply leant into the water and scooped me out with one finger.
I have never bought a swim suit because of my fear for water.
To be anywhere near an enormous ocean liner when you are just like a fish in the water is frightening.
I can't swim, and I actually hate sand.
Athenodorus says hydrophobia, or water-dread, was first discovered in the time of Asclepiades.
The only time I get afraid is when I am at the ocean. I get a little nervous when I'm in the water because I always feel like something is going to bite or snatch me.
I attempt to surf. I'm not as good as anyone else in the water. I'm more like a beached whale. I just hang out on my board. I can ride, but I get too nervous unless I go with my boyfriend or my trainer. There are too many burly men out there!
I am not a swimmer so a bit of phobia is always there with water stunts.
Do it now and avoid the June rush! Fear death by water!
I am just not a water baby. I can swim, but I just don't.
I don't even know how to swim!
