Why am I so paranoid about sending the right messages to people? I meet a new girl-we chat, I'd like to see them again just because they're nice-something may happen, something may not, but all in all it's fun-but I'm scared of "saying the wrong thing", or maybe just scaring the person away, when I should just settle the fuck down and get on with it. If they run away so be it. I just end up sounding ridiculously equivocal, and there's rarely any need for that, except when occasionally put under the microscope of guilt...
I suppose I've always been scared of treading on toes, partly due to my upbringing, and partly due to the fact that I'm so bloody clumsy (literally, figuratively and verbally!). I really need to stop being all things to all people, and just get on with being myself, and bollocks to it if I occasionally piss people off. I almost never mean to! If people want to take offence to me, they generally do no matter what I do. There are always people that clash with eachother's vibes. 'Tis the way of the world...
32 days to go.

Hey Ian,

We all feel this way sometimes, but it's only natural. Being yourself is definitely the best thing to do tho as that way people take you for who you are, and not for who you're trying to be. If they dont like the real you, then sod them. If they do, then at least you know you're genuine and you're both likely to get along great!

*hugs* xxx
