Today, my social anxiety hit a new low. I was playing bingo and, although I won, I didn't shout "bingo" because I thought too many people would look at me. FML

I feel for you, OP. We all are awkward.

No that's a legitimate fear. Personally, I've been known to lunge at/sick my tiger on people who beat me in bingo. You were right to purposely lose.

Why would you even play bingo when you know the goal is that humiliating ritual? That's why I always make myself scarce when the "Hokey Pokey" breaks out. I hate the "penis" verse. I don't want to shake that all about!

I feel your pain op. I also have social anxiety not to mention PTSD. Maybe you should look into counseling before it gets worse. I can't go into stores alone and I avoid leaving my house at all costs. I would hate for anyone to live like I do.

F that! I'm shouting bingo no matter how red my face gets as people stare at me like this b*tch just won.

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who's like this haha
