    Haha! i'm so scared of butterflies it's insane. Been like that all my life and always get the same comment from people 'but they can't hurt you' I KNOW THAT DAMN IT! BUT THEY STILL SCARE THE LIVING SHEEEET OUT OF ME!!! and the have caused some embaressing moments in the past AND dangerous ones. Was peacfully riding my bicycle in the summer and a butterfly came out of nowhere and i went swerving off to the side and fell. Another time i was walking and there was a dad and his little kid walking towards me, a butterfly came out of nowhere near me so i started walking in zig zags all over the pavement to avoid it, the dad must of thought i was crazy, pretty sure he gripped his kid's hand a little tighter, he deffo gave me a funny look and walked faster to get as far away from the crazy lady as possible. *sighhhh* damn butterflies! :(

    I'm sorry you fear butterflies (flutterbys as I'd prefer). They and moths are quite fascinating and beautiful. I used to be afraid of them when I was little (I thought one bit me). Learning about them (as I'm learning about spiders now), reduced that fear.

    For example, did you know there are several species that mimic the poisonous monarch butterfly in order not to get eaten.

    Did you know silk comes from moths?

    It's a phobia and probably can be quite annoying. - Exspecially because it is one of the less common phobias connected to something most people seem to like.
    Phobias are pretty common, though. Around 10 percent of all people have one.

    It's normal, everyone has different fears.
