I’m in High school and I can’t tie shoes or swim 
I can’t swim either
We had an entire swimming unit that lasted like… a week
I didn’t learn anything from it
Besides how to save someone drowning without the swimming part
As a college student, same. I’m 90% sure it’s an innate human fear. We have no night vision, and mediocre non-sight senses. Plus, many predators are out at night. And I’m not just referring to the Minecraft YouTuber kind.

I think i’m scared less of the dark and more of the messed up things I’ve seen
The large amounts of cringy and unscary creepypasta videos I have watched as a kid has made me scared of the lurking creatures of the dark and made me more bold to watch 10x more horrifying stuff which makes even more scared of the dark
I have dug myself into a hole I cannot get out of

does the night deter criminals though?
i actually have an entire list of confessions:
- i went to the emergency room for sticking a crayon up my nose
- i had a crush exclusively on emma stone from the amazing spiderman for most if not all of my childhood
- i am an unfortunate victim of childhood obesity (im not fat now tho thank god)
- i ripped my pants in the 7th grade (bear in mind i was obese atp) and didnt realize it until they called me into the office during lunch. went through english, math, gym class, the cafeteria line, and all the way into the vice principal’s office where they for whatever reason conveniently had a pair of gym shorts for me to change into. it wasnt a small hole by any means either like you could see practically my entire ass cheek cuz i wore tight underwear at the time. i wear boxers that go to my knees now tho…just in case.
- i completely trauma-dumped on two random dudes who i’d hardly talked to before that–idek why–invited me to go camping for like their twelfth birthday or smth. they never spoke to me again after that night
- i used to walk at night and whistle hoping to creep out some neighbors and never did so again after i overheard one of my classmates, who’d apparently seen me, telling people about it.
- some fat lady at a bowling alley randomly started talking to me and my older brother sat there the whole time just laughing as this lady asked me to like dance for her or smth but my parents saved me eventually before she could like do anything weird…er.
- everytime at my job when i do something wrong i typically skapegoat the management and it always works because the management sucks regardless.
- i legitimately picked my nose and ate it until i was 13.
theres plenty more but i cant think of any atm
