Textbook fear

A type of anxiety or apprehension felt towards a situation or decision because it is commonly perceived as difficult, overwhelming, or universally feared, rather than based on personal experience. It’s the fear of facing something simply because it has been widely described as daunting, often amplified by societal expectations or common narratives.

fear

A term continuously used as an excuse to never overcome dilemmas or complications one has with a person or a goal out of hurting their feelings. It is often a term used to hide their true provocations. More specifically, fear is used to seek other possibilities at the expense of other people who value their worth as a person or their lifestyles because they either replace them or seek means of satisfaction through unhealthy or unnecessary desires without ruminating about the possibility of jeopardizing their relationship or friendship with that person in the name of self-interest
Why is fear bad?

Fear is bad because they claim they may get hurt if they confront the person or goal they fear so they think other people won’t discommode them because they’re new.
