What are you like when you get nervous? Do you blush and stammer? Do you get sick? Do you hold it together pretty well or fall apart?

I babble and say stupid things. And blush. And knowing that I'm babbling and saying stupid things makes it worse and I get stuck in this vicious cycle and don't know how to stop talking.
It's awful.

What about y'all?

Say stupid things as well as appearing stupid. Beat myself up not long afterwards.

I just 'toss' my problems to Jesus and let Him advise me.

I used to be very scared in school when everyone looked at me and i had to do a presentation or something.
But then suddenly I wasn't nervous anymore, like 3 years ago, I began to think it didnt matter much (Not the presentation, but if I made errors or something, I wasnt focusing on my nervousity, so it went away) :p
When I do meet my future wife, I bet i'll be a nervous wreck though lol...

Based on your post history either you are nervous every time you post or I'd hate to see you ramble when you're really nervous. ;):p

I've seen her do this... Many times over the years... And yes, her posting is only part of her rambling, Jim.

It occurs to me that I should maybe ask this, after laughing pretty hard but then thinking on it...are my posts unreadable cuz I do so much rambling? I know they get a little long...often...yikes. I could try to tone it down a bit on the um, crazy, that comes out. I mean, if it's just hard to read. Yeah. That. Ok, shushing now.

Not unreadable. You actually make more sense on here than you occasionally did in real life.

I never said your posts were unreadable and as for the rambling I find it to be a blend of cute and humorous. I always enjoy reading your posts.

There are only two situations when I'm nervous - one is when I approach a girl I really like and second, is when I am going to fly. The first situation is easy. I sip some water and take a deep breath. Then I am alright to approach her. But the second is difficult because there's no solution to my fear of heights/spinning. I just pray as if my life depended on it. Sometimes, even prayer doesn't help much because I am in such a horrible condition during and after the situation. :p
