I'm scared of the ocean. I lived in seaside Oregon 25-26 years ago with a ex in her dad's duplex 3 houses from the beach. Watching the power of the ocean during storms combined with high tide getting a lot closer to the houses than I ever saw scared me so much I left the house and drove inland a few miles. She made fun of me so much for that but I was really f-ing scared. I'm a desert and mountain boy, that ocean s**ts for the coast town weirdo'sOcean scares me! 100ft from the beach is far enough for me.
