    Just wondering where everyone stands with this
    What lies behind us and what lies before us are small in comparison to what lies within us.

    I chose a select few. Just my boyfrined and my ex-boyfriend know that I have this phobia, oh and an ex-boss from work. My parents know I don't like to v* but they have no idea how far this phobia really goes.

    i chose my close friends, which include my mom and my boyfriend. i don't think my boyfriend really understands though. i sometimes think that he thinks i'm crazy or it's all in my head.

Oh yea, and my doctor who thinks I just wanted to lose weight so I decided not to eat and made up an excuse that I am scared of v* [img]smileys/smilies_12.gif[/img]But whatever. ^^; Edited by: wing

    i chose a select few, less than 5, but I bet more than 5 know. I know that my husband, mother and sister know and another great friend, but I would say others know about it, but like others said, not the extent it goes to. Most just think, "oh, she hates V*. but who really likes it" Well,little do they know it is much more than that.

    I selected I share openly, and I do, pretty much. I mean, its not something I bring up unless a situation arises. Its not like Im standing in line at Wal-Mart or something and I just start telling the cashier about my phobia. My youngest childrens teachers know about my phobia. All my friends and family know about my phobia.

    I'm no longer ashamed of anything about me. Including this phobia. I voted that I share it openly.
