Oh yes, same reaction here although, I am deathly allergic. I am the crazy person doing the “get away from me" dance every time a bee comes close.
Is it maybe because we associate pain with a sting? Maybe it is psychological with the buzzing noise that creates fear.
I work in downtown Cleveland and we have a very nice eatery that is outside and is cluttered with shrubbery in the midst of the city and tall buildings. Within this mastery of luscious greens, tends to be the 'hive central' of the city limits.
Not even a week ago, I went to lunch with the girls from work and sat at the famous luncheon spot. Late August and early September, the bees are so aggressive that I was making such a fool of myself, swatting, yelling and running that I left after 10 minutes of attacks.
You are not alone. Most of the people I know, create a situation of pure embarrassment when it comes to the buzzing pests.
