So tomorrow I am going to a Fourth of July party with a close friend...That's not so bad. But there are going to be a ton of people there that I don't know...And I'm kind of nervous about that...To the point where I kind of don't want to go...If my friend just leaves me hanging or something, I feel like I will probably freak out...So much for a first impression...
Does anyone else feel this way? Any ideas on how to calm down the nerves? I'm kind of lost in this one... Thanks, JDA |

I know how it feels. I kind of pretend I'm another person when I meet new people. I pretend that I'm confident and outgoing and maybe one day I'll become that person. It gets me through those tough situations when I have to meet new people.

It's scary and tiring, but it helps enough to get me through it!

Yeah, I guess I just post sometimes...And if I don't get a response it's like nobody cares...Even though that is just my mind telling me lies...

Well your mind is the one lying to you. That's the purpose of this site! To post and support. If people don't respond... they usually don't know what to say...

 It helps a lot to know someone is there.
