    Yeah, NO. I do not like spiders and I do not want to know where my dress was that it found one!

    I don't like spiders so I would have probably just asked someone to get it off my dress as I would have been too scared.

    I’d kill but it wouldn’t ruin my day as long as killing it didn’t ruin my dress!

    I'd have to wonder how a spider got in my dress and be very afraid to wear it. I'm not a fan of spiders, although there are worse bugs to find in your dress *squirm*

    Spiders don't really bug me, especially since they eat the bugs. But I also don't want to hold one, so someone else would have to put it outside.

    I never heard of this one, but spiders don't really bother me. I would probably just brush it off.

    As long as the spider isn't on FH's suit, we'll be ok! He is super scared of spiders, but I can deal!
