I love ALL animals and living creatures, and I normally adore spiders. One of the ONLY things in the world I am afraid of is spiders IN WATER. I had a panic attack in the shower because of a nasty one on the wall... anyone else feel this? Their little spindly legs... eudfkdjk.... ewww. Vulnerable and naked with a creepy little wet thing crawling about.... ughhh.

    I think thats very common.
    I'm not afraid of spiders, but if they are in the water it disgusts me too.
    Of course I don't like them on my skin either, so if my sister screams "kill that spider" i usually don't touch it with my bare hands.
    I found, that I'm more disgusted by animals if they are where they shouldn't be, like spiders in water or fish on dry land.
    Especially when I see them fighting for there life not to drown or choke! I really want to help them but i do it very quickly to avoid contact with them.

    It used too, but now when I see spiders in water I save them and put them on the floor and procced to lecture them on their dangerous activity. I adore spiders! xD

    that's probably it, feeling vulnerable.
