I get very nervous before a meet.
I don't know why.
You'd think I'd be used to it by now, having had a few in my time...*ahem*
Anyone here get a dry mouth and start rambling?
It's hilarious what I come out with.
Anyone wise tips to calm the nerves?
Thanks.

"I get very nervous cant help it
Yes but do you make a fool of yourself?
I bet you don't...I bloody do."
consciously slow yourself down ten minutes before hand. Stop, breathe in hold for twelve and breathe out for twelve (seconds not minutes ) five or six times, relax your shoulders and face muscles, have some lavender oil on a piece of cotton wool and inhale that. Promise yourself that you will pause for three seconds before you say ANYTHING except "Hello, nice to see you". OR just carry on as you are, it's probably quite endearing |

Last time I ended up talking about the homeless, the NHS and David Cameron then skipped maniacally onto playing with food in bed.
Oh yes.
It's a whirlwind in here...*points to head*.

I have to say that I find it good when people are nervous and come out with random stuff - I find people are more likely to be themselves and honest when jibbering - I always get nervous and talk total garbage but at least I know that if someone wants another meet with me they must actually like me to put up with my level of randomness and insanity |

"I get nervously excited. Its quite a nice feeling actually. Xx "
This is me also^^
I do talk a lot though as I'm not good with silences until I'm comfortable with a person. |

I always get extremely nervous when I meet someone new. Borderline panic, like a bloody first date FFS, what if she doesn't like me etc etc. then I remember, they are probably just as nervous. I do try to get to know someone a bit on here first, Got to say that all the people I've met, have been lovely people and, when the ice is broken, were like old friends lol |
