  1. I was startled by the ringing phone. ‘Who calls people at 12 at night?’ I thought to myself sleepily. I picked up the phone, and I heard my sister weeping. My blood ran cold. “What?” I asked. “Dad…is dead.”, she choked out.

  2. I startled miss marple on the stairs that lead to the room where she keeps the cabbages. I’m the only one who knows they are full of crack cocaine and she sells them in the ghetto.

  3. There is nothing fascinating about how utterly startled I was when I found out my parents were splitting. My life would change, my entire world would look slightly dimmer. I had become older, I knew love didn’t always last until death did them part.

  7. The startled word has arrived to me quite often tonight. I have left the web-page for hours and returned just to find that the word remains the same. I would appreciate it, if it were different but this is ne’er the case and I find myself wondering what the changed word would be if it did change at any point.

    Hmm … this is quite interesting.

  8. she was startled when she looked around the corner. silly cat lazing in the sunlight. i want to kill it. she listlessly floated down the stairs. the wrought iron cooling her stroking hand. softly touching looking for something. anything to soothe the pain

  10. His words, they startled me. He’s not attracted to women? What is this? How could he not be attracted to women? It didn’t make sense to me. My world was spinning; I couldn’t make sense of it. Smiling my way through the rest of the conversation, I felt like a huge weight had been put on my chest. When we hung up that night – that dark, painful night – I cried.

  11. He was shocked by the sheer wind that gripped him as he walked out of his door. with each passing moment he felt another bump on his skin rising and becoming erect. he shook his head and walked down the front stairs.

  12. I was startled by the loud knocking noise at the door. A group of people stood outside, waiting for me to answer. I peeped through the hole in the door, wondering who was behind me. To my amazement, Stephen Christian and a few strangers peered back at me. Why would they be here? What is their purpose? I don’t understand.

  15. I turned, startled, at the sound of his voice. I hadn’t seen him in ages and the fact that he didn’t belong here only crossed my mind for a second. He smiled and said something quietly that I couldn’t quite make out. All I knew was that seeing him was the best thing that had happened to me in weeks.

  18. I was so startled when i saw my brothers head in his ass literally for the first time. I thought to myself, what an idiot. But then again, we all knew it was bound to happen some time.

  19. what happens when I look in the mirror after a long night of drinking, or after hooking up with a girl, especially the one that I did not too long ago, a couple days ago. She was a biter, so when I woke up the next morning and looked in the mirror before I got in the shower, I was startled at how I looked. She was sexy though.

  20. It’s a light comfortable rolling kind of surprise. When you’re startled you don’t worry about what’s happening because after the initial shock you know you’ll be ok. It doesn’t last.

  21. I was startled to find her standing there with her blue raincoat one, waiting for the taxi cab. I had already told her an hour before that I’d bring her to the theatre. It was times like this that I remembered how bad it had gotten. I wished the medicine had done its job, but sadly, fate has a way of making its way into life.

  28. She wandered through the corridor, when it began – that cold wind that crossed through the walls and swirled her hair about her shoulders. She stopped and flailed at the tendrils of her mind, and collapsed on the ground to fight her nightmares. Once again, she was alone.

  29. i wondered for a moment what it was that I had seen. The object, dark, about the size of a football, had flown across the street at lightening speed, and then just, well, disapeared. I asked George but he too was equally startled.

  30. I hate whenever I am working in my room and someone pops into the room, exclaiming as they come in. I never hear them, and the experience undoubtedly leaves my heart racing for at least a minute or to afterwards. If only my classroom door came with a motion-sensored door chime, I would be spared a heart attac.k

  31. She startled me. I was watching the dog run after the ball.
    ‘It that your dog?’ she asked.
    ‘No, I stole it,’ I replied.
    ‘Then, can I have it,’ she said.
    ‘Sure, just kill it, when you finished,’ I said.

  32. that is what he was
    startled
    it was something that came over him in a flash
    an emotion that filled his entire body
    all he could do was breathe and even that was a difficulty
    everyone feels starled once in a while
    it can happen anytime or day
    thats the beauty of the word
    and the meaning of the word
    startled
    a word
    and emotion

  34. one day i came across a cat in the middle of the road. my first instinct was to find out what it was doing there, of course. when i came closer, i was startled to find that it wasn’t casually hanging out in the middle of the street – it had been run over. more than once. i felt terrible about it, however there was nothing i could do. i closed my eyes and said a little prayer, then went on my way.

  39. I don’t even know. Startled. What the hell? It’s when somebody interrupts you from a great moment in time, when you lose yourself. It’s how you feel when somebody comes up behind you, scaring the crap out of you. It’s how it is after life takes an unexpected turn. It how I feel whenever I wake up in the morning without somebody next to me. Startled.
