    I used to hate talking on the phone until I got a job that required a lot of talking on the phone. Got over that real quick. Though I still pray it goes to voicemail.

    I have no problem in person, but I HATE using the phone. Put me in front of a group of 500 people? No problem. Ask me to call one of them on the phone? Probably not gonna happen.

    I hate calling people too
    I'd be nervous talking in front of 500 people but put me on the ice to skate in front of a couple of thousand people and I'm in my happiest place ever

    Put me on the ice in front of anybody...or even alone, for that matter, and I would be flat on my kitten!

    I confess I have a real anxiety problem and my bf wants me to go to planet fitness and have them show me around. (He's at work) I really just want to tell him no bc it's my worst nightmare to talk to people all by myself especially when I wouldn't be buying anything right away. It's hard enough for me to muster up the courage to leave my house just to go on walks by myself anyway without having to go into a business and actually look someone in the face and talk to them. Rational mind knows it's not a big deal and no one cares if I'm awkward. Anxiety mind says the worse embarrassment of my life will happen and I'll never be able to show my face again! I really don't want to do it but I figure it's the dumbest thing in the world to be like this.

    Hang in there, you are not alone.

    I would so much to want to be you. Get away from everyone, become a hermit. I do not like humans, they sux. Never to have bother with people again. But, there is called life and I gotz to deal with them. Most days its okay. But about every 18 months or so it becomes so overwhelming, that I have to do a total withdrawal for a couple of weeks. No peoples.

    I won't even talk to people on the phone. In person is even worse. It takes me so long to think of the right thing to say. And being badgered to buy something I'm not sure I want makes me feel annoyed and stressed and super guilty that I'm wasting someone's time. So I giggle awkwardly a lot and then run home and hide under the covers.

    (Had to go to the mall last night to return something and it was AMAZING because all the salespeople were busy with inventory. Not a single person offered to help me. I loved it.)

    ((...I think there's a reason we all hang out on here.))

    Ya I'm kind of surprised at all of the responses. Everybody has pretty strong online personas to me. Phone isn't the best for me either. I text everyone usually. Feeling guilty over thinking you're wasting someone's time! That's definitely a factor.

    If I am at home, I do not answer the phone. The online personas appear to be strong because you are dealing with online personas, I can shut off the website or computer anytime I want. It gives (at least me) the feeling of some level of control.

    I've been trying to have this thing called a "life" but I'm actually a very successful vampire hermit. Everyday I'm like....I should venture back into society, then I remember what society is like I go back to the internet.

    You have lots in common...now I'll leave you to it. ;)

    He's a cutie for sure, but a little young for me. We should fix him up with @angelxsss (hope I got name right)

    I may look like I'm 12 but I'm really 33 lol. So I'm not that young haha

    Yep, too young sweetie! I'm turning 48 in a couple months.

    I turned 48 back in November. So.....?

    thanks; it could have been Texas also as it is mostly in the Gulf Coast region. :-)
