A matchmaking service that introduces people based on their self-described levels of various phobias (phobiae?).

The only person we can't help is the phobophobic.

       Combine all three... a matchmaking service that introduces people who are afraid of TV celebrity fan club members.

       I'm scared - need a hug. anyone?

       What if you are frightened of matchmaking services?
—krelnik, Apr 02 2003
   

       Fear of matchmaking services ain't in the list, so I can't help you there, Chester.

       It's the oldest, most tragic love story of all - claustrophobe meets agoraphobe... <sniffle>   

       BTW, you were right the first time - "phobias" (though I had to look it up to be sure).

       fob-a-phobe

       I am scared of phobophobic people. Can you help me?
—Pericles, Apr 02 2003
   

       [Bliss]: Pericles is a good name. Pericles is nice. Pericles is... indeed, to be feared. but not by you, unless you're phobophobic. Are you?   

       ARE YOU??? Damn, now I am scared.
—Pericles, Apr 02 2003
   

       [Pericles] Yes.
[blissmiss] You gotta be kidding.
[reensure] We can help your hedonophobia / contreltophobia / agraphobia / hamartophobia /erotophobia / genophobia once it's properly diagnosed. The rest is up to you.

       Damn, one of my favorite anno's must've evaporated, some ridiculous string of 'filo-faxo-phobo-phile' that went on for a line and a half.
—RayfordSteele, Apr 02 2003
   

       If you like people who are afraid of pocket organizers, are you a filofaxophobophile?
—krelnik, Apr 02 2003
   

       And if you're only _pretending_ to like them, are you a pseudofilofaxophobophile?
—Cedar Park, Apr 02 2003
   

       What's the phobia called when you are deathly afraid of being scared to death by your fear of dying?   

       I'm scared of what I'll see in the mirror every morning.   

       Would this service be an anti-unrequited-phobia drug-store?
—FarmerJohn, Apr 03 2003
   

       You might have a tough time with xenophobia, lailophobia, and panophobia as well. I suffer from demensmenspraecohalbacanoscandimythosubterraneaphobia myself, but I take comfort in knowing that’s a widely shared condition here.

       Call it "Friend or Phobia".
—whimsickle, Apr 04 2003
   

       po - would a fob-a-phobe be someone afraid of keychains?
—Freefall, Apr 04 2003
   

       I'm afraid of being scared to death because of fear of dying induced by reading anno's from people who are afraid of being scared to death because of their fear of dying.
