Roller coasters and my boyfriend?

Question

My boyfriend is taking me to an amusement park and I am deadly afraid of roller coasters. I know he is going to want me to ride all of them with him. What do I do? Please help. I don't want to disappoint him.

Answer 1

how can you hate roller coasters! there so much fun! anyway, i would suggest going to the park before he takes u to try them out if it is financially possible. if not, just remember that its only a ride and its not going to kill you or hurt you. a lot more people die in car accidents every year than roller coaster accidents because roller coaster accidents are so rare, so the fear of death on a roller coaster is illogical, if thats what your afraid of. if your just afraid that you'll get sick then just try it once and if u do get sick dont ride it again. he'll understand

Answer 2

Just tell him your afraid and your not going on. That simple!

Answer 3

Well, if he really wants you to ride the roller coasters, start with the smallest, least intense ones first, and then work your way up. Don't worry, you'll be fine :)

Answer 4

Have you been on a roller coaster before? Perhaps you could try it. I use to feel sick and refused to go on any rides that went upside down but now im an adrenaline junkie. However if you really cant bring yourself to go on the rides then just tell him you're scared and he should understand.

You could always try building up to the scary ones.. start off with a ride you feel comfortable with and then try one thats a little faster and go from there

Answer 5

close your eyes and pretend to be in your happy place! oh and hold on tight!!!

Answer 6

Well I think that he should take your

feelings into consideration also!

He is not the only one in the relationship...

But if you are adamant about going...

Most amusement parks have rides of a lesser-thrill value...

You guys can go on one of those...

And if you have a real fear then you should not go...

NEVER compromise your own well being for someone else happiness...

Best of Luck!\

Try making a deal with him. Tell him you will ride the easiest adult coaster first. Ask him to agree that if you can't handle it, you won't have to ride the others. You may like it.

Also, talk to him. Most people are not wanting to ride EVERY kind of ride. For example I hate tall Ferris Wheels, one of the easiest rides! So maybe he hates some kind of ride. Maybe you could trade his not having to ride that ride for you not having to ride the Coaster :-) Just an idea if it would work out.

Coasters move very fast and you get a sinking feeling in your stomach when they go downhill but if you don't get sick it is great fun.Most people never get sick on them.

Answer 8

juuuust do it. unless you think you will puke, do it :) it's exhillirating and yes they can be quite scarry....if you have to, close your eyes. your boyfriend will admire you for being brave! i am scared of BIG rollercoaster and i actually start shaking once i get closer to the front of the line, lol. but it's so exciting! and your boyfriend is there! so you should feel safe, hold his hand!

Answer 9

Just explain to him on the way that you are really afraid of them. He most likely wount make you ride them, although you could offer to wait for him to ride them but it would be a long waiting. What park are you going to? I could name you a coaster thats not too bad so you could ride something with him.
