Wanna know why we get anxious at social gatherings? A study, conducted by OnePoll on behalf of Avocados From Mexico, polled 2,000 Americans and compiled a list of "why's".
The top 10 things that give us anxiety at social events:
- Somebody you don't like shows up.
- You want to leave but feel pressured to stay.
- You feel like you don't fit in.
- The only person you know is the host.
- It's just not any fun.
- It's a potluck, and no one is eating the food you brought.
- No one is drinking the beverage you brought.
- Just WORRYING someone you don't like might show up.
- You can't drink, because you have to drive home.
- All the food and drink options suck.
