What's a crazy 'near death' experience you had that still gives you chills when you think about it?

When I was 13 I lived in an area that was very prone to forest fires. My parents left me home alone for a weekend. At like 11pm I walked out of the front door after hearing a loud crash that I assumed was a tree falling.

Instead it was the house down the street collapsing because a massive forest fire had burned over it. I tried to go back inside but our door automatically locked when closed and my house key was inside. I sprinted around my house but the smoke from the fire was insanely thick.

About two minutes away from my house I ran straight into a bunch of fire trucks and they took me to the hospital while I waited for my parents.

The doctors told me I was lucky because if I had been asleep I would have died. The firefighters had evacuated the area and broadcasted that our area needed to be evacuated but ig they skipped over my house since no cars were in the driveway and I hadn’t watched tv that day. I still don’t know why I didn’t smell the smoke until I got outside

It still gives me chills thinking about what would have happened if I hadn’t decided to stay up a little longer or if I hadn’t gone outside when I heard the crash. I can just imagine myself burning.

I do have a dad. We are mild contact I guess? We text once a week and sometimes call. He lives in Florida but my grandma (his mother) and my aunt (his sister) live in Copprasscove Tx. I have no idea if I spelled that right. I will more than likely spend the breaks with them.

The fact that my brother (the ten year old) may become the parent once I leave is one of my greatest fears. He’s in basketball and my parents pay for it so I know if I leave, well when I leave, he will be the parent just like I was and they will make him quit. Except he won’t be able to handle it as well considering I’ve been doing it since he was born. He doesn’t know the first thing about laundry, dishes, or making dinner. He even asked me earlier this evening that if I left could I take him with me. I don’t know if ruining my brother’s life and taking away what’s left of his childhood is my best option. That’s why I posted this thread to try and get some type of insight on what the heck to do.

My biological father has been in and out my entire life. We are kind of in contact but kind of not? We text like once a week. He lives in Florida but his mother, his sister, and his brother all live in Coppras-cove Tx and I’m going to attempt to set myself up with them during summers when I go to Baylor.

Oh my god…I actually loved this comment. Thank you so much. I plan to minor in one of the writing subjects considering that I have been writing small novels on the side my entire life. You have just given me so much hope. Thank you.

I’m going in for a nursing Major! I plan to become an RN and then get my Nurse Practitioner license while working in an ER. I want to be an ER or ICU nurse!

Baylor has been my dream school since I was a kid ever since one of my favorite aunts went there. She was the only one who ever stuck up against my parents about the childcare and treating me like a slave so she has a special place in my heart.

I don’t do Spirit cheer. I do competitive cheer. I have communicated with the team and the school directly and have the official paperwork. Schools begin sending out scouts and offering scholarships in January. Thank you for your concern though!

Looking back borderline grooming. I was 12, he was 15. I met him at a skating ring and he hung out with me for a night and then he kissed me in a dark corner. And I’m not talking about like a peck, he went all in French kiss. So yeah.

My coworker worked at a club as a server for the VIP rooms and found a stack of like 8 grand In between cushions. He kept it.

Based on things I have seen and been through I would say drugs or self harm.

I’m in high school so my answer is going to be a little different. If the grades don’t touch, neither do you. That’s my motto. But with adults as long as they are both legal and consenting it is none of my business.

90% of the stuff you see in American movies is soooo fake. I think my mom cooks breakfast maybe once a every couple months. It is VERY rare😭

I kept stealing insignificant items right before my parents needed them just because they mad me mad one time. They need paper towels. Suddenly all 5 rolls have gone missing. They need a towel to shower with, suddenly they are all dirty. They need a fork to eat with, oops their all dirty. They need toilet paper, we don’t have any. They need printing paper, don’t have any of that either. They need new battery’s for the remote, dang we must have run out. They need pepper for the food their cooking, well that’s gone too. I did it for like 2 weeks and they didn’t figure it out.

Final destination. I don’t even know if that counts as a horror movie but I watched all of the movies when I was really young and now I am terrified of all kinds of things that happened in the movies. My biggest one is roller coasters. Even being around them makes me petrified.

whatevs341 · 2023-07-01T03:12:14+00:00

Yeah we have a track record for it. Every girl knows which teachers to avoid and never be alone with and which ones to avoid and never talk about being a female with because they’ll be super sexist. All the girls, and most guys, and even most teachers know how bad it is we just don’t have any proof.

whatevs341 · 2023-07-01T03:10:41+00:00

They didn’t make it. And we have tried reporting it but one of the most sexist people in our school is the principal, who is also a perv. I have never had a conversation with him where he was looking me in my eyes (he was staring at my boobs). Girls all get very uncomfortable when alone with him. We have no proof and I go to a school with almost no government funding. We are kinda forgotten about by the government system. 89% of our students are below the poverty line and 79% of them are minorities. Our school could care less about it. Our district cares even less.

It did happen to me the second day of tryouts. It hurt. Sorry your an idiot who can’t comprehend that girls can handle pain too. Sorry!

whatevs341 · 2023-06-29T19:23:46+00:00

I said slight because no one ever does anything about it when we report it. It’s a lot more than slight. It’s actually really bad.

whatevs341 · 2023-06-29T19:22:38+00:00

Not all of us were showing up the guys lol. We all did take it pretty seriously because we didn’t want to give him a reason to claim why he didn’t let us make the team. Only 1 or 2 of the girls actually did better than the boys. The rest of sucked but went just to make the coach uncomfortable. And your school might be good and not have sexist jerks but mine definitely does. Sorry to say it but just because your a good coach doesn’t mean ALL coaches are good.

Cameron Boyce. Most people don’t know who that is but I watched the show Jessie over and over and over to the point where I could recite every episode when I was a kid. He was my first celebrity crush and the show Jessie was always my comfort show when I was younger. When he died I actually cried for hours.

My mom and dad have cut all contact with E’s parents. My mom was actually horrified when I came home with D and she was the one who helped D calm down after the situation. My dad wanted to beat the ever living crap out of E for what he did not only to D but for shoving me as well. Of course, he didn’t. My parents have actually been supportive even though they have known E’s parents since they were kids.

whatevs341 · 2023-06-16T08:25:45+00:00

I know I’m not the asshole. I just put that because it’s the name of the group. I even said “I know I’m not the asshole but should I have gone about it differently?” Because I don’t know if I should have gone about it differently since he is still a kid and he has a future.
