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!

That's what I like so much about LJ, I feel safer discussing some things on an online forum where no one can see my face then I do in the RL sometimes, especially fandom related subjects which make some people go all "You what?". *LOL*

I find that I get nervous when talking to new people, especially peers, and unfortunately when I am nervous my brain looses all contact with my mouth and I go a mile a minute without much thought...which gets very amusing. For some reason I'm better around older people *shrugs* then I am people my own age *shrugs*. Once I get to know them however I feel more confident.

Once I get to know people, I think I ramble even more! :-D

Not sure whether to be happy it's not just me, or be sad that other people have the same problem!

I'd be happy, it means there is nothing wrong or abnormal with it :-)

Mmm, that didn't sound quite right did it. What I meant to say is it's a normal thing, yer it can be annoying, but I don't think you should hate yourself for it, it's not like it's your fault.

I'm afraid I'm not very good at the pep talk thing.

Lol, s'okay, I knew what you meant. :-D

I wasn't really looking for a pep talk anyway, can't do that myself, so I'd never go expecting one!
