I get really shy when it comes to eating around people other than my famliy and my closest friends. If I'm at lunch and everyone else is eating I feel ok about eating in front of them, but If no one is eating I get nervous about eating when they aren't. So I just was invited to a friend's 16th birthday party and it is going to be at a hotel. Its a fancy dinner party really...and I'm nervous about eating with 50 other people around me. Its not that I'm worried about my weight or how I look, I just don't feel right eating when other people are around. What should I do at the party? Should I just not go? Or should I go and not eat if no one else is eating?

Please Help..I'll rate =]

Oh boy does everyone feel the way you do! Of course! You really shouldn't be so nervous and try to relax. I'm sure no one is going to be staring at you the whole time seeing what your doing. Try not to be so self - consisous. Remember : there are more than one person in the room who is concerned about their weight! One tip I could give you though, is that as far as manners go, you should never start eating until the hostess (or host) picks up his or her fork and starts eating themselves.

Hope I helped =)
