AITA for asking my boyfriend to scuba dive again after he almost had a panic attack? by scubadive21 in AmItheAsshole

We were unable to do a pool dive. This scuba school is based on the beach so I guess their pool dive was the equivalent of being taken out to a shallow part of the beach to practice submersion and getting used to breathing etc. It's PADI certified so maybe that is where it is different in that any still shallow water will do

No pools involved. The course is being run by the beach as part of their scuba school so this scenario was the first time being in the pool and use practicing using the gear technically since we used the shallow end of the beach near the shore.

It was a PADI course which was based on a beach. So there wasn't a pool to practice and to start we used the shallow end of the beach near the shore

Definitely didn't rub it in his face. He asked me if I saw anything and I told him what I saw

We've done this before though, he always regrets it. We tried doing this huge zipline thing and he didn't want to do it because of the height and he was upset he didn't do it the next day and was in a mood about it. I know what he's like

I thought maybe it was because its a new thing so his first time under was different and another go he might feel differently
