Today, my girlfriend let me stay over at her house for the first time. I went into her room only to find out she's obsessed with the Joker and has a bunch of posters and toys of him. I am deathly afraid of clowns. FML

ScaredOfClowns tells us more.

(I didn't know how to get it to comment as the OP...) For those of you who are asking how I didn't know, she had never brought it up in conversation. We only recently started dating and she hadn't mentioned it at all. She knew that I was afraid of clowns and admitted later on that she thought I was kidding. I guess it could be worse, when I made an excuse to leave and we talked about it later, she suggest we stay at my place instead.

Kinda weird that she's that obsessed and her own boyfriend didn't even know that about her...

Oh my god I'm obsessed with the joker too lol I also have a doll and posters. Oops.

You see so many stories about partners who seem to be incapable of understanding, it's refreshing to see someone rational.

Totally agree 118! Im glad everything worked out, OP. Hope you two can work things out to make you more comfortable for you in the future.

I also have a fear of clowns, but The Joker doesn't bother me for some reason. I think it's because I know he's more mentally messed up and he can't help being a little psycho.

Just wait until she asks if she can dress up as Harley Quinn in the bedroom. ;)

Based on OP's comments, the girlfriend seems to be understanding. Maybe this could be an opportunity to overcome your phobia. :)
