LoadingReadyRun: Social Anxiety Fear Factor

[Voulan]

Oh man, I had a similar moment to the dinner party the other week at a 21st. The invitation said "cocktail vintage" so after checking with the host I went wearing a very short dress number in a 60's vein. I walked in and everyone there was wearing pearls, suits and bloody ballgowns. Never felt more self-conscious in my life. The looks I got from the grandparents certainly didn't help.

I then had to make small talk with two girls my own age I didn't know (everyone there was at least 30 years older than me) until finally someone I knew from high school but hadn't spoken to for several years showed up.

I was tested to the limit, but I survived! I'd never do it again though.

As someone who has very extreme social anxiety bordering on Avoidant I would have to say that I wish there was a button I could use to tap out of a conversation. Jeff is braver than I am. I never would have went.

Wow, that was AWESOME!!!
Definitely a keeper!!!

I wonder if the comments section will mirror the Kickstarter forum over on LRR's site with people lamenting how they couldn't get through the opening section due to it being too awkward.

Yeah I had to skip through that myself... Gets better once the buzzer comes into play.

I almost skipped ahead, well done.

Okay, yeah, I loved it when Jeff lost it on the tool competition after the first two. Brilliant.

... and now I know what my personal hell will look like.

Thanks a lot.

Are you sure you're not me?
