blushing issues?
by keys08, Jul 11, 2008 01:11AM
Does this happen to anyone else? And if so, what do you do about it?
I met one of my boyfriend's friend tonight. I was so embarrassed. I’m not sure why, but I turned bright red when we went out drinking. I don’t know if it was because I was thinking I shouldn’t be drinking because of the antibiotics, which I didn’t take today by the way, or if I was just being self conscious, subconsciously, but the fact of the matter is that I was bright red. My boyfriend noticed at first, he was like, your neck is red, are you allergic to something, and I was just like, no I was just rubbing that spot, trying to play it off. It was all up my neck and throughout my cheeks. And then the more I thought about it the redder I got, I’m sure. By the time I went to the bathroom I looked psychotic. My cheeks were flushed, I wasn’t wearing any make up, and my lips were chapped. I was mortified. But there was nothing I could do about it, so I didn’t. And I tried not to worry about it. Eventually the redness died down, but it was very noticeable. This happens to me on a pretty regular basis when I go out, particularly around poeple i don't know. I don't think i have social anxiety, because I dont FEEL nervous, I just blush uncontrollably. What can I do about this....any suggestions?
