Turquoisesea, GOOD FOR YOU for making the playdate! I know it is strange for you to have your life lined up with your bf, but mine is lined up with my CAT! That means grazing at all hours and sleeping in a ball most of the time. Your social anxiety seems to be much better than mine. NOt that I am one to be offering advice, but when I find myself obligated in a one-on-one social situation [no groups, thanks], I keep the conversation going by asking them questions about themselves. That way, it keeps them talking, and I don't go away feeling I have revealed too much. If you can find something to honestly compliment a person about, do that, too. Can you share your concerns with your bf? That would be a good step to take. Caring About You ~ billieJ
Thanks for this!
