Not if it makes you look like a spider. I'm deathly afraid of them...a confirmed arachniphobic, lol.

Bev, I'm not going to tell you that if you face your fear it will go away, I talked my wife in to facing her fear (a snake) one time and I believe it made her more afraid of snakes now. Woodrow

I don't mind snakes, rats or mice...I've had all three as pets. It's just spiders. *shudders*

We have all eaten spiders while sleeping and not even known it. They crawl all over you at night and suck your blood.

I hate spiders too!!!!!!!!!! Chills!!!
I don't believe that they really crawl into our mouths at night tho...someone would wake up and catch one in the act....and then die of a heart attack, lol

I am with you girls...put a snake, mouse, I think almost anything in front of me but not a SPIDER!!! I think it's because they are small and fast to try and keep up with!!! Plus I have a hard time hitting them, by the time I have hollared and found something to smack it with it's dissapeared!!! LOL
The saying of leave them alone, they'll leave you alone does not apply to me and spiders!!

LMAO *wipes tears*
I don't even have the nerve to swat at one, lol. That's gettin' too close. One time one of those big ol' wolf spiders got into my living room - you know, the ones that are as big around as a 50-cent piece, can outrun ya, and you can see daylight under them? Anyway, I screamed and jumped up on my breakfast bar and STAYED there, called my PREGNANT daughter-in-law to come kill it because nobody else was available, and I never took my eyes off it. It had covered 5 miles in my living room and I never took my eyes off it, lol. Oh, and I have 270 degree peripheral vision when it comes to spiders - I can see them approach from the rear quarter.
Anyone who says they killed a spider for me has to show me the carcass before I believe it's dead.
I did have to kill a spider myself one time. It was in the corner of my bathroom behind the toilet all settled in and not going anywhere - and I
knew I was gonna have to eventually use the bathroom... No way I was gonna pull my pants down with my back to a spider... anyway, I took a can of hairspray and my cigarette lighter and I torched it with a big flame from about 2 feet away, lmao. I was so proud.

Bev; You might need more than hair spray and a lighter for this guy!
