You might be socially anxious if...

......you're posting in this thread.

...you pretended to be using the toilet in a public restroom just to get out of having a conversation with someone.
*insert fake potty noises*

pahahah! gross.
...I suddenly feel so ashamed. -___-

...you pretend youre busy messaging or talking on the phone and even have fake conversations LOL

You'd rather get into a huge fight with your spouse than suffer through yet another social gathering he has planned.

You analyse each and every text message you get on your phone. As well as your replies.

OOOOH that's a good one! i do that 😀

-You dread the moment the waiter asks "And for you?"

-The second anyone says your name (even if it's to call someone else with your name OR if someone's name sounds like yours), you start to sweat/can't breathe/heart races.

^
oh my god I hate the waiter one! especially when you're in a group and they all turn and look at you...

-You take the stairs instead of the elevator to avoid walking past a recptionists desk
-People tell you you always look grumpy/sad/annoyed/fed up
-You push people away even when they are nice to you
-You have no job, no money and no friends
- You anticipate all relationships to end because its only a matter of time until you are exposed as a fraud.
-You manage to suck the LIFE out of the room when you enter it
-You observe an overwhelming look of utter disappointment wash over peoples faces when they see you

so on and so forth..

lol.Yeah that sounds about right.

Your blood pressure rises to 200/100 when tlaking to the spiky haired nurse at the emergency ward.

you've run out of service stations to avoid.

When your wife tells you off for playing with your phone when you have visitors.
When your wife tells you off for playing with your phone when your shopping.
When your wife tells you off for playing with your phone when you go to a restaurant.
When your wife tells you off for always wearing your baseball cap over your eyes.

And I got married why? Didn't someone once say you look for your mother in your partner.
Sometimes I think I'm 10 again.

... you haven't gotten a hair cut in two years.
... you stare at the floor all the time.

getting a haircut is the ABSOLUTE single most dreaded thing. I put it off until my hair looks like weeds with split ends.

*shiver* ick. having some strange person so close to me touching me and struggling to think of things to say to keep them happy so they don't phuck up my hair.

When i was little I would fake sick over the haircut issue.. now I just wait until it gets too embarrassing to wait any longer!! Haha. Oh god.

You might be socialy anxious if:-

When you leave the house you tense your stomach to hold in the middle age spread and hold it in no matter how painful it gets till you get home.
When you wear your baseball hat down over your eyes and wear your sunglasses to hide your face even at night when it's dark and no-one can see you anyway.

-freeze like a deer in head lights when someone knocks on the door LOL
-would rather take a bullet than go to a party (sheet I have to go to one tomorrow night!)
-have a regular fantasy about living alone (or w/ a very special someone) far far in the mountains never seeing anyone else for months and months.

... if the only date you've had, comprised of eating one. :😮:

I just got a "Creclip" have you seen these? To give yourself a haircut at home. I tried it on my hair last night. Just took a little off to start though. I was pretty terrified to do it myself since I am trying to grow my hair out long and it's been almost a yr since I got it cut. I have long layers so it's trickier to do, but the videos make it look so easy lol
I hope to never pay for a haircut again now though. Save money and never have to deal w/ that whole experience 🙂
