So, a friend of my is giving a party. The place is not at his house but he invited me. He even made a special invitation for the guests. But from all the people who will come I only know the host.
Now my anxiety is going through the roof. Like I am half intra half extravert. I’m good in one on one conversations. But that’s not the occasion right now. It’s a party and the host cannot only gonna talk to me.
I don’t know who these people are. only his friends I guess but I am assure they know each other already. And by this I keep hearing doemscenario’s in my head.
I will go, the party is over 2 hours from now. (8pm – 1am) but I’m nervous as hell. So if anyone got any advice or want to comfort me.
Also I’m a guy which isn’t particularly important to mention but just to give u people a clearer look.

I’d advise a few things:
Choose to interpret your feelings as excitement, because this is exciting!
You can just smile, say your name, and ask their names to start. Ask how they know your friend, how long they’ve known him. Ask if they have any good stories about him.
You don’t need to be prepared to do or say anything. Conversation happens on the fly–all you need to do is ask thoughtful questions, listen, reply.
You might meet someone with shared interests!
