Today, I was attempting to teach a bunch of 2nd and 5th graders on why it's so important to face your fears and try your best. It was going pretty well, until I was attacked by a pair of butterflies. I am afraid of butterflies - I ran away screaming like a little girl. FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

YDI for letting your fear get the best of you when you should have acted tough in front of your students. Practice what you preach.

Then again.. Seriously, butterflies? LMAO XD

Just because you are a teacher doesn't give you the right to be a hypocrite.
YDI.

Butterflies? Where the hell is that coming from? :P

And I agree with #3! :P

I'm afraid of certain spiders, snakes and others things that can kill me. :P

Actually, butterflies can be pretty aggressive if you are wearing a scent which they are attracted to. They try to lick you to death.

Mwahahaha butterflies... Lepidopterophobia for those who don't know.

I used to have it too, till my dad literally pulled me into a butterfly garden.

The huge ones still frighten me though.

Good god, I went to a butterfly garden once. Didn't help at all. I had a panic attack and had to leave.

You need someone to prevent you from leaving. That's how it worked for me. I still remember that I literally stood petrified at the entrance till gently coaxed on by my mom.

My pharmacy class took a trip to the botanical garden a while back to study medicinal plants. Once we reached the butterfly section I was the lucky one to be smothered in the face by a swarm of them. That was surprisingly frightening >____>

Yeah, I understand how you could be scared of butterflies... You know, with all of their gentle fluttering and all.
