Default strange phobia/obsession

I have been accused on a few occassions of having a strange phobia (it wasnt a fear, just more of a case of me not liking or being able to accept it).

Anyone on here have similar things??

I think we all have unusual feelings at times even if we don't like to admit it at the time. I certainly have.

Don't think it is worth worrying about.

Not phobias as far as I'm concerned but certain things I don't like or won't do that people find weird and might class as such.

I get accused of being "mildly" ocd about stuff if you can have such a thing. Maybe compulsive without the obsessive.

Mine was quite funny, but is now dealt with......

ok, here goes..... In the past I have wanted to have serious relationships with a few women who were very nice, attractive etc.... but I always called it off when I found out that they had 'too much beef on the taco'

Crazy, I know.... but for quite a while I just couldnt not bring myself to being with someone who wasnt exceptionally tidy down there......

I kinda agree, nothing worse that a fanny like a badly packed kebab, or ***** lips like Gene Autrys saddle bags!

Perhaps you fussy lot would prefer a nice big **** instead

Seeing as you cant cope with varied and characterful lady bits, if its attached to a nice person, its clean and tidy then I think you should be counting yourself lucky, as in my book Fanny Phobic points the other way......

when i was growing up, my middle brother advised me that if it smells good enough to eat, then it probably is.

back on topic, i'm mildly arachnophobic [though i cannot bring myself to kill them, they have to go outside under a glass and a magazine while my skin prickles and my body hair stands on end]. apart from brussels sprouts and people who invade my space bubble without permission, that's it.

They're still not as bad as Velcro! Oh and Clowns, but that's another story!

Think my worst one is putting the rubbish out. I can't stand it and refuse to get the full bin liner out the bin and tie it up. I have this fear of getting mank all over my hands and being 'dirty'. Weird I know

The mrs has one too. When opening the curtains, she has to have the two tops meeting in the middle at the top (where the hooks go onto the pole in out case), regardless of how much light it blocks out in a tall thin window We have nearly come to blows about this.

I cant open one window in the car.

I have to open all four, exactly the same amount, so they match and meet up nice across the B pillar, very rarely to I fully open them, usually about 2-3 inches.

Also...

When I go for a night out I line up two sets of clothes on the double bed, as though they are being worn....ie Shirt or T shirt to the top and pants or jeans to the bottom, trainers or shoes below that.

This includes everything I am going to wear, boxer's and socks included, now for the weird bit......I then place a watch with each outfit, this ritual can take upto 30-45 mins, then I go and get washed and shaved etc.

Whilst I am in the bathroom I actually believe that the clothes and chosen watch are getting acquainted.

I then finally view them, and choose which set to wear.

I thought this was a bit mad.....but now I have actually written it down, and read it back....its absolutley bizzare.

I have a phobia of telephones. Yet I use one everyday

I know why - its because evrytime it rings someone wants me to do something, and as soon as I answer I'm obliged to either commit myself or splurge out some bulls**t to fob them off.

And sadly, my bulls**tting skills are terrible unless I have at least six pints of beer inside of me.

Bottom of my feet, can't stand my feet not touching something. I've either got to have socks on, or they need to be touching the floor/settee/under the covers etc..

Touch the bottom of them and expect a good kick.

I know, I've been told enough times.

When kissing the misses' ***** I have to give them both the same amount of attention else I worry one will get jealous of the other.

My brother had an obsession with having to touch things twice. And if he put something down, say onto a table, he'd make sure the noise of putting the object down would be made twice..

I have to put my right shoe on first, my right arm in a coat/jumper etc. first.

When I get out of the shower, I have to put on my engagement ring first, then my watch, then my right hand ring (I've never taken my wedding ring off).
