I have a horrific fear of sticky things. I cringe at melting caramel and sticky faced children give me anxiety. I cannot stand the thought of a sucker falling on my shirt because then I would have to pull it over my head. If it got in my hair, I would surely freak out and get in the shower quickly. I have had this since I was very little (maybe four), and it is awful. When I was in sixth grade, a girl squirted a can of orange soda all over me and I wanted to cry. I had to ride home in the car with my legs sticking to the seat. I tried to stay as still as possible to that I didn't cry when I felt that icky pulling feeling on my skin. Getting off my clothes to get in the shower was even worse because I had to peel off the sticky layers. I am really uncomfortable even writing this because of how it makes me feel.
