As a teenager,(fortunately or unfortunately, I am not sure) I read a book of airline pilots and their final destination and last flight (they crashed of course). Ever since then I have had this fear of flying. I ventured once to California from Hawaii just because I wanted to go to Disneyland so badly, so I prayed on the plane and felt so awful knowing that the ground was so so far away. I never desired nor wish to ever travel ever again. In September of last year, I met someone online and am his fiance now and because I wanted to be with him, I flew 10,000 miles and spent 10 glorious days with him. I overcame my fear of flying because of love, I guess. Now I am willing to travel all over the world with him. Please I need others to tell me that my fear of flying is groundless (OMG what a word to use) and I would like to hear from people who overcame the same fear and hear from people who can share their love and their adventure on airplanes. Thanking you all in advance for responding to this. Angelina
