Flipping Properties and Partying with New People
A couple of nights ago I was invited to attend a gathering but I did not know the party hosts very well and to put it simply, I really just did not want to go at all.
The fact of the matter is that I have been asked to go to gatherings just like this in the past where I know basically no one at all, but at my girl friend's insistence, of course I did eventually go.
Why didn’t I want to go?
I had, in my mind, created a false sense of fear of attending…without any sort of basis within reality.
I had pictured myself alone and awkward at the party, standing there in the corner of the room, desperately trying to find something to talk about with the people who were there - and of course no matter how desperately hard I tried, I consistently struggled to connect with people. I never was able to find something that I could talk to other people easily about, the conversations always seemed so awkward, add in some super loud music and I always managed to have a downright miserable time.
As sad as it sounds, that is how I always envisioned my party experiences.
Have you ever had a party experience similar to mine?
These are the kinds of gatherings you go to where you think to yourself you’d actually rather be at the dentist than suffering through this utter social torture….
What if I had instead expected a much better and more enjoyable outcome?
So instead of being a loner, talking to no one in the corner…imagine if I had been encircled by incredible, awe inspiring people that were truly interested in what I had to say and contribute, taking part in great conversation, while enjoyable music played in the background, feeling completely comfortable and at ease?
What if I had chosen to envision the above scenario, do you think I may have had an easier time attending the party, and possibly even wanted to attend the gathering?
