(most of the time)
now i know my shower is next saturday at 4 pm i just dont know where - so FH will probably blindfold me and drive me to wherever it is - i just feel soooo stupid even having a shower - im starting to get nervous - i just hate when everyone looks at me. and all that.
ill just drink wine to loosen up - i dont know why im bugging out - i know all the ladies there so its not like they're strangers -anyone feel like that?
i remember when i used to go to my older cousins showers - i always looked at htem and thougth omg thats sooo cool, they're getting married & im just soo shy & starting to panick!
:(

any advice

wow...what a relief it is to know that I'm not the only one who feels this way.

I HATE being the center of attention & everytime I think about my shower (it's March 9th), I start to get a butterfly feeling in my belly.

I'm definitely planning on having a half glass of wine prior to - is that terrible?

And like you, I know everyone that will be there..Idk, I guess it's like social anxiety or something.

Dont worry!! your not alone here!

I am the SAME WAY, and Nc82, my shower is also March 9th Even though I know everyone there I feel extremely uncomfortable. That's why I did a cellophane theme, that way I can get rid of all the gifts in no time.

Oh yay - shower twin!! Where is your shower being held? Do you know what you're wearing yet?
