That is something that does concern me a bit, BUT that's part of the reason I wanted to leave.
The EU's handling of this has been very childish and petty, they're not respecting our choice and helping whilst warning us of possible problems but instead threatening us like children in the playground saying "well we don't want to be your friend anymore then".

Well if you'd voted stay you'd still have Cameron. Not great but at least him and Osbourne were digging us out of a hole.

Agree - and I did vote remain.

No chance. You will find other countries are calling for a referendum now. The EU has been poorly run and has hardly been good for the stronger nations. If it had remained a small successful group if countries it would be ok , but too many poor countries are in it now pulling down the more successful countries to their level rather than vice versa.

I voted out as I dislike the way the EU dictates to member states and how their authority has crept into daily life without the electorate agreeing to it. Cameron went to them asking for reform with the biggest threat he could; which was leave - and got little in return. Yet the UK seems to pay more & more & more into an expanding Europe.
Now we're told the EU won't miss us, and to get out asap. Really? You won't miss that money?! More arrogance & bullying from the EU, even as we're going...

I think the way both campaigns were run was disgusting, and whilst I admire Cameron for giving us the vote - I think his behaviour during the campaign was terrible. He should have been impartial as the leader of the UK, and should have presented reasoned (factual) judgement for both sides, and could have THEN offered his personal belief.
I am not a xenophobe, or anti Europe - I am anti-control by the EU. I strongly believe our best interests will never be at heart in those politicians in the EU looking after the number of nations they do. I am also FED UP of being a cash cow for everyone else.
I believe in the UK - I believe things will take time to work through though...

You simply cannot say that, they will be very bitter about the decision, and never underestimate what people do when threatened.
It's a huge possibility
