Question Posted Wednesday December 6 2006, 4:07 pm
I'm seeing this guy that I really like, and I stayed over at his house for the first time the other night. Everything was fine until it came to the moment where I knew it was my turn to reciprocate the attention (for the first time)...and I panicked. I don't know why, I've never before panicked in that situation, but I properly freaked out, and just couldn't do anything.
It didn't seem to matter that much to him that I couldn't do anything, which was nice, but I feel so bad about it. For some reason, with this guy I really felt like I had no clue what I was doing and whatever I did I was going to screw everything up.
I didn't quite know where to put this question but still - how can I improve my confidence so I don't panic again? And any ideas WHY I panicked? I just don't understand.
Thanks x

This guy is more "advanced" in love stuff than you are and you feel intiminated
You really likke this guy a lot and you don't want to screw it up.
Just be your natural self and don't think about what you're doing. Just let it come naturally to you. If this guy doesn't like you for a stupid kiss or whatever, then ditch him...if you're getting really nervous, eat bananas before you meet up with him...bananas are really good beta blockers which will help you calm down [ ductape_n_roses's advice column | Ask ductape_n_roses A Question ]

Well, i would either say talk to yourself in a mirror[reallly works] Or just practice. Because practice makes perfect. And besides your not gunna be perfect your 1st time or 2nd time or even 3rd time. Thats just something everyone goes through.
