self-conscious

I am a bubbly extrovert who struggles with an enormous amount of anxiety when meeting new people.  

Sounds like an oxymoron doesn’t it?

This weekend, I ventured down to Chicago to meet a group of women I’ve been in relationship with via Internet for more than a year. Let’s just break that down for a minute:

1. a group of women
2. a group of women I’m meeting for the first time… alone
3. a group of women who have a preconceived notion of who I am based on good pictures and thought-out witty comments I post online.
