i am totally like this... i can't eat in front of a guy that i like... i mean like my guy friends, i'm ok with, cuz if i didn't eat around them i would never eat... but if a guy is around that i like, i can't eat.. i'll just get a drink... and if i'm starving, i'll force my self to order something like french fries or some other finger food that i know i won't look dumb eating... i know that sounds retarded but i'm extremely self-concious and just can't get over it... maybe if i was more satisfied with my weight, then i wouldn't care about eating in front of people...
