Ive been with my bf for 6 months. Im a very shy person and took many months to be comfortable with him. I am very comfortable with him now but we are invited to his families house for easter. I am terrible in that kind of situation. People I dont no eating with people I dont no!!!! Im making my self sick over this he says there is nothing to worry about they like me. As I have only met them once! And im afraid im making him upset with these feelings. Arggggggggggg! Im stressed!!!!! :cry:

Take a deep breath, in through the nose, out through the mouth. Why should you be so upset about "eating with people you don't know"? What happened the first time you met them that has you petrified to meet them again, this time in a probably less formal setting (i'm guessing).

People are people, we all eat the same. Food in mouth, crew, and swallow. It's not all that difficult unless your shyness involves eating in front of people.

If you spill something on yourself, you are human. Make fun of it, and go on from there. Can you fill me in a little more?
