When you get to be 70 like me, and have already lost your father, your husband and a sister to the grim reaper, the biggest fear is losing more. Somehow it is also frightening to die yourself and leave your family and friends to grieve.

    Me not being good enough for them. I'm afraid they'll find a funnier or more lively partner.

    I fear that I'll encounter the same emotional abuse and toxicity I witnessed in my parents' relationship. Some time ago I have decided that I'd be better single and safe.

    my biggest fear is, him walking out on me and my kids. It's an irrational fear, but still a fear.

    Standard woman fears. Murder, rape, abuse Followed by manipulation I don't catch. I do not care what your intentions were. Do not lie to me like I'm a child. Keep secrets, I don't really care, so long as it doesn't impact our/my financial life, or have any bearing on our relationship, I don't care. Sneak food on the way home? Don't care. But lie to me to keep me to intentionally keep me in the dark about something about me, or my reality, I will never ever trust you again. Nothing. Lie to me about when the baby starts walking, or other incredibly patronizing c**p, we're done. Don't lie to me to 'keep me happy'. Smacks of no respect.

    I'm terrified that I might develop a medical condition or get hurt and leave my partner burdened with having to care for me instead of living their life.
