a while ago me and my boyfriend watched a horror movie. since i was a kid, I've never been fond of watching scary movies. it gives me adrenalin rush, heart attack that is! and i couldn't bare see the ugly faces of the ghosts or whatever kind of scary faces they have in the movie. so immature on my part, but what i also do when someone asks me to watch horror movies with them is i hug my boyfriend and only look at the screen when there's no scary part or the characters are only having simple conversations. now i'm 24 and still i couldn't overcome this scary feeling of watching horror movies, even before i sleep at night, i remember the way a girl screams or the doors creaking.. they give me a rush..really.. what do you think is the best thing to do for me to overcome this fear?

I think that the only way to get rid of that fear is to realize that it is just a movie. Nothing bad happened to anyone there and they are just playing their roles. If this does not help, then I guess it is better to just explain your problem to your boyfriend and stop watching those movies at all. After all, he should not have a problem with that if he really loves you.
