My moms friend is coming over in about an hour and her friend has a son and He's bringing his girlfriend and his brother. I am insanely shy and uncomfortable around people that just come over one day. Any suggestions. I would rather sit in a dark room then meet them lol. I think he is around 18 and his gf is about the same age.
Im not very talkative around my relatives at all.....I'm seen as the "quiet" at all the family get togethers and what not. my brother usually talks away to them anyway so I just say nowt....maybe just try and make conversation about something you all like? Music? Sport? Films?
Can't help you there, I'm not shy at all. I used to be. Just shake their hand, say "Hi, nice to meet you.", and then play some videogames. Maybe they like vidoegames, they might want to play with you.
Bring out something you all can do, like a board game, or play some video games. Or, if you have a frisbee or football, go outside and play. If that doesn't work, just put a chunk of soap in your mouth, tear your shirt in half and run around growling. Better to have to someone so afraid of you that they're too scared to ask questions, then have them whisper amongst themselves going, "How come that kid never talks?"
I used to be like that....then in the end I just thought "what the hell" and just started chatting. I am sure you can find common ground. If not lower your inhibitons with good alcohol :D

I find that one to be rather successful with the ladies. 8)
You're on this site, so you most likely have at least one video game console. Find the most casual friendly game you got. Video games break the ice very well.

[QUOTE="A-HAB"]lol all of my games have to do with killing. They are all FPS or TPS loooolMVfalcons83
who cares aren't they 18
yeah the older son and gf shouldn't have a problem with killing, but dont blow someone up with the little kid right in front, or play a game without gore...
Well more about them. They just graduated yesterday from the best school in my state and are going to insanley good colleges. And me... well i dabble LOL !
Well im quite shy sometimes, but keep in your head that theres nothing to fear, they are no better than you and if they say anything to offend you, they can go **** themselves, but always be nice, dont let them know that you have a defensive attitude.

perfect, your age is ripe for college planning as well, talk about colleges and stuff like that. that is good, i bet the kid will bring his gameboy or psp or w/e so thats no proble,start a conversation about psp if you want if he has one.
The same thing happens to me. Just introduce yourself and go somewhere else in the house and either listen to music, play games, or watch a movie. They shouldn't both you, but if they do just move to the kitchen and look for something to eat.

and if they follow u into the kitchen then tell them to go away.
[QUOTE="A-HAB"]LOL mr.monkey thanks a lot.MVfalcons83
You're quite welcome, good sir. Play Timesplitters if you have it, everyone loves TS.
Well all my frinds do. Playing as a ninja monkey or a piece of calamari is just so satisfying. Especially when you get a dart gun, and for some reason makes your enemies explode.
[QUOTE="mastershake575"]just start talking to them its not like there going to bite or stab you MVfalcons83
or will they?
I would. I get pissed when random people come up to me and start talking. Of course, I do that a lot. I'll go up to my teachers (who are having a pleasant conversation) and start saying stuff like "I completely agree wiht you" or "Yeah, I did that once. Good times, good times."
