“Unlocking Fear: 50 Haunting Words That Will Leave You Breathless and Bewildered”
I had a tall muscular man in the locker room when I worked at Firestone point his finger in my face and say: “you don’t f**k with me Bailey, I’ll be your worst nightmare.” He ended up being m**dered several months later, his body was found in a parking lot on University Ave. in Des Moines.
When my husband told me – first thing he said on my birthday in this ugly rushed voice – that my birthday present was the Comcast visit they’d apparently charged for – after asking me prior what I’d like for my bday. Ok fine whatever -grey rock- but it hurt.
That day I finally realized he’s actually intending to be cruel and it actually made my blood run cold.
I was chatting with a lady I just met while waiting in a lounge. We got into the topic of having kids, she has two and I said my husband and I are still enjoying each other’s company since we just got married, we don’t want it yet. And she said, “I know someone whose husband said he didn’t want kids, and he ended up having an affair AND having kids with the mistress.”
I have no idea what her intention was. I still get confused when I remember it.
A girl told me her parents literally told her they hated her, that she was a mistake and they wanted her to die. Whenever she would hurt her knees, they would make her walk on her knees over rice or beans so she would bleed as punishment.
My ex employer told me that if she had known I was autistic she wouldn’t have hired me.
One time, when I was Djing, a drunk guy came up on stage just to tell me he thinks I look like Lena Dunam. He meant this as a compliment.
I do not look like Lena Dunam.
