Do you have any scary experience with guns? [View all]

I ask because I've been writing about my first girlfriend, who turned into a stalker and loon and, once I'd convinced her that we were truly over, held a gun to my head.

Just wondering if I'm alone.

I was going to post this in the Lounge, but I thought this group would be more appropriate.
