Gah!!!

Does anyone else have this problem? I'm completely okay, able to hold a decent conversation, act like, well, a normal person, etc etc when I'm online. But then put me in a real life, face to face, talking to someone type situation and I turn into Grant Jansky. (Not literally, of course) It's very annoying.

Sometimes, I really hate me!

Don't worry, you're certainly not the only one! I totally suck at actual conversation -- I either babble about the wierdest things, or freeze up and can't think of anything at all to say. I think my biggest problem is that I really need to think about what I want to say, so often the conversation has moved on by the time I come up with something. So either I drag the conversation off on this tangent, or just don't say it at all. People who don't know me well usually think I'm either a freak or stuck-up (which I *definitely* am not!)

That sounds almost exactly like me. Especially about having to think about what to say. If I don't, I ramble on about whatever obsessions I have at the moment, and since no one has heard of most of them...well, I get some odd looks!
