I "can't" swim

Recommended Posts

Guest wildpegasus

Well, I can swim a few metres but that's about it. I fear the water almost as bad as I do women. Floating in particular is something I can not do at all. I've never actually accomplished it despite a million tries. I'm just too nervous and I can't relax.

 

Is there anyone else out there who can't swim? I know there's got to be a few.

 

 

 

Edit -- If someone would please take the time to take my Blog tests I would appreciate it. I am trying to enable comments to be posted on them but I'm having a hard time doing so.

No. I refuse to believe there's someone out there with a fear of women and water that still predominantly watches VHS.

 

I'm a hardcore wrestling fan with a ton of rare wrestling tapes from around the world. Of course I'm still gong to watch more VHS than other formats.

I never learned to swim. Can't ride a bike, either.

 

Bikes aren't bad for me. There's less fear of death when you're riding a bike.

 

Which reminds me of something I've always wondered about -- Do girls get off on riding bikes or horses? There's got to be some reason why girls love horses so much.

Thank Christ, I'm not the only person on earth who can't ride a bike.

 

Everyone should be able to swim though; it could save your life. Unless you never, ever go near water.

 

And how in the fuck do you live in Nova Scotia and become afraid of water?

Good question. There's a ton of water around here. I'm not afraid of the water at all. I'm just afraid of floating in it.

 

 

Is there anything you can do, WP?

 

Yeah, I can do a bunch of stuff due to being subjected to it. Experiences that a lot of people will never see in their lifetimes. Been through a lot of danger through work. Weightraining is my biggest can do thing.

I can ride a bike, but I was 11 when I learnt which is pretty late.

 

Im not too skilled a swimmer but I love being in the sea although thats mainly for body boarding.

I'm a pretty good swimmer. How can you not float, though?

 

My means of movement that I don't like is driving. I can do it, but I won't unless I absolutely have to.

At least try to keep your gimmick consistent, kid.

 

What I mean is that I'm not afraid of the water but I am afraid of floating or drowning in it. I thought I mentioned that already.

So you can't swim and can't even ride a bike? Your parents must be so proud of you! What did you, sit in your basement every waking moment?

I used to be able to swim, now, I think I could do it if my life depended on it, but otherwsie...I stay away. I'm also unable to ride a bike.

I can't do either. Never learned how to swim, and had a bike crash that scared me from riding when I was little. :(

 

I'm sure I could ride a bike now, though. Ride my exercise one enough.

I thankfully mastered floating when I was five. If I was in a life or death situation, I could easily just kinda...float, if need arose. I don't even have to try to do it anymore. I naturally just start floating. I can't even dive, I just float right back up.

 

Bikes...Fuck Bikes. I took a nasty fall, and gashed my knee pretty badly when I was a kid, to the point where I probably needed stitches. My irrational fear of hospitals kept me from going. Never learned how after that and never want to.
