I am relatively new on here, well less experienced is a better way of putting it. I have no issue with meeting 1 or 2 or even 3 people but the thought of walking into a place where there are 40/60 other people fills me with excitement and anxiety. I would hate to be left standing like a loner.
Its looking like I might be going to the hogmany party where there is a big chance I will not have met anyone before.
Im not shy but I would be going into another zone. Whats good advice from your own experience when going into a party or group for the first time?
If everyone is as easygoing as me I will not have a problem ???? |

Walk in with your head up, make eye contact and nod/say hello to anyone who meets your face. Straight to the bar, neck a drink and then start eyeing up the talent  |

Walk in with confidence ..get yourself a drink ...find a table of people you like the look of ..Walk up ..whip your cock out and slam it on the table asking who wants it .....or just take things slowly ..talk to people and be respectful   |

Sounds fantastic, one arm on the bar and the other with a drink in my hand? ?? |

We are all different! Just be yourself.
If having a drink at the bar alone while you suss out the environment is what you feel comfortable with, well, do just that.
If on the contrary, mingling straight away is what you suits you, jump right in and introduce yourself.
Have fun OP  |

Yeah, fake it 'til you make it as they say. It also helps that I'm pretty blind without my specs so apparently give off an air of confidence but the reality is I'm staring into the distance trying to recognise anyone to talk to. |

Honestly its fine, everyone is in the same boat, all like minded and want to mingle. Just go in and chat to people and then take it from there.
Every social I have ever attended, I have went by alone form the very first to most recent and actually everyone is really nice, always have been.
I hope you have a fantastic time and wonderful experience. |

You have 6 verifications in as many weeks so can't be doing too badly or too shy either. I expect hogmanay will be extremely busy. Lots will know each other but some won't. Just don't get too d*unk or even drink at all. Go with no play expectations & if you do it's a bonus.
