Today, I was at a party. Trying to overcome my social anxiety, I was trying to take part in conversations. So, when a girl mentioned she had a doctor's appointment next morning, I blurted out: "What kind of a doctor?" Everyone stared as she responded: "A gynaecologist." FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Same thing different taste

That's when you offer to help get her loose and ready beforehand

I mean, she didn't HAVE to tell the truth. She could have just said it was some sort of check up.

Ouch. That bites, but there's no way you could have known.

If I were she ,I won't respond you

"I'm not a doctor, but I could take a look"

Thats more on her for mentioning what, she didn't have to do that.

My goodness, you are anxious, aren't you? Three things. 1. You are NOT responsible for someone's response. Don't even spend a split-second worrying about it. 2. Seeing a Gynecologist is perfectly normal and non-shocking. If there were people there who were shocked, they need to grow up. 3. You either need to take a drink, see a therapist, or read some books on how to loosen up around people. It takes practice. I used to be shy, but go to enough parties and talk to enough people and you will eventually get to the point where parties are endurable.

Also, you WERE on the right track. People LOVE to talk about themselves. Asking questions at a gathering is one of the best ways to get to know people and not have to say too much. Pretend you're a talk-show host. It really does work.

Nope, that's it it's just "The Doctor" (doctor who reference)

Then you should have said, "I'm not a gynecologist, but I'll have a look!"
