I knew this forum was the only place I'd consider joining as soon as Steve mentioned it. They can really be horribly addictive, and I hadn't spent any time at all looking at them for the last three months before this - I recall a ridiculous amount of time being spent on those idiotic imdb message boards...
I think I'm usually very self conscious when committing anything to writing. In this respect I think I ought to adopt Steve's 'ready, fire, aim' approach to things - in other words, make my points and apologise later
Thanks for your support everyone! It's very reassuring to know that I'm not the only one with these problems. As I said before, I'm generally awkward in group situations, and speaking to a number of people (even if it's in a forum) should help me become more comfortable as time goes by. Btw, this forum is growing frighteningly fast, isn't it?
