Let's be honest, I was an idiot. I realise that now, but I panicked. I don't know how to talk to humans. Sure, I can do the whole "Nice weather we're having" shit, but I clam up when it comes to long, in depth conversations. Small talk- no problem. Debated discussions on politics- forget it.
GorgeousJawMan scares me. He seems confident and laid back and a general decent bloke. Which scares me.
I'm none of that. I'm shy and awkward and just blurgh.
And I still felt like a blurgh when two days later, whist walking Max, I encounter GorgeousJawMan again.
