I have been 500 feet (150 meters) beneath the ocean in a dark cave where a single mistake would have killed me instantly. Yet I'd still be more scared to talk to a beautiful stranger at a bar than to go on a dive.. Am I brave or am I coward, I dont even know. I guess the fact that the fear has never stopped me, I still talk to them despite the fear is more important than the fear itself.

Nice! I've wanted to become cave certified but I'm still trying to master my buoyancy. Don't want to be kicking up dirt in that environment haha.

@greylaw89 @freemo I’m sticking to open water and single tank dives. I get too distracted to do anything else.

@freemo

My fear is less in the conversation as it is in myself misreading signals. I can't count on one abacus how many girls I've offended by having a platonic conversation and then reacting as though it were more than platonic. Thankfully that was way back when everyone wasn't wound as tight as we are now days and I was basically an inconsequential nerd who could be easily ignored.
