Wife or SO Afraid of the Dark/Being Alone?
Posted on 4/15/14 at 2:10 pm

Need suggestions on this one.
Wife is terrified of the dark/being alone at night when I'm not home. She can't sleep and hears noises. Off the chain paranoid and now she's rubbing off on my 9-year-old daughter. They're both a couple of major scaredy-cats. My 3-year-old is scared of nothing thankfully....attribute that to being a guy but who knows.
Here's the biggest prob: taught her to shoot a couple of years ago and she's actually drawn-down on me once and was ready to a second time coming in late a couple of nights...dirty harriet.
Safe neighborhood...alarm system...lights on....not sure what else to do.
Anybody else ever had to deal with this???

No. Because she knows she has a man that can take care of business.

If I come in late I have to text my wife to let her know I'm coming in. She is also afraid of the dark and being alone.

Just get her a Jody.

Sounds like you married a child. Congrats.

I'd go talk to her parents and find out what they did that screwed her up so bad.

I was going to suggest some BBC so she wouldn't be lonely, but she's afraid of the dark soooo.

I can stay with her until you get home

My SO certainly is, but she grew up half a mile from a BR ghetto so maybe her concern is warranted.

Mine is like that, but she has a prescription for Xanax so that helps

A dog would help. I get scared if alone at night and hear something but if dogs don't go crazy I don't worry.

Nothing but a bunch of dumbass responses. Your wife's issue sounds serious and deep-seated. It's more than worth it to have her see someone professionally. I would assume some underlying problem drives this phobia/paranoia.

That's weird. I adore being alone.

#1) Trade the guns for tasers. She doesn't have the temperament to use a gun wisely.
If not, can I buy some life insurance on you, good buddy???
