Have you ever wanted to do something, but are afraid to do it? Like kiss a guy for the first time, or hold his hand? Those are the simplest things in the world, but can scare the crap out of you. You’ve hiked a rock wall, over a thousand feet in the air, and weren’t scared. But holding a guy’s hand is terrifying. Kissing him for the first time is the worst. You think to yourself, will he like it? Does he really want to do it? All these things run through your brain at the last minute, but you do it anyway. You conquer your fears, and kiss him. But you feel the after affect fears. Did he like it? Was it too wet? Too dry? All of these questions run through your head after. The simplest things.

is it ok if i say something from a guy's veiw? u think ur scared about holding a guy's hand? try thinking on a guy's perspective, me (as a guy) think it's so terrifying that we hold hands of our gfs. what's even more terrifying is meeting ur dads, u know they can be intimidating to us (guys). not bad for an article though.

A cute, sweet and accurate impression of the loving worries. :)

when you're hiking a mountain its just you and the open air. when you're with a guy you have to worry about screwing things up
