I get akward around any males, but not all the time...its stupid but like if i become aware that my bra strap is twisted or something, i get this feelingin my stomach that makes me sick, like embrassement & shame i dont know how else to describe it, it doesnt even have to be a guy that would even view me as a sexual being, but this feeling makes me want to hide, and sometimes when im at family gatherings, i will just walk by and someone will look up just because they seen movement, i get ashamed because its like their eyes butn holes through me, and i feel that they look at me as dirty, even though none of my family knows about my past, well he does i guess if he remembers, but the holidays are coming up and this is when it happens a lot, but id at least like to know if its normal or what it is i feel, does anyone know??

" I have that problem, too, with the guys. I'm most scared of guys around certain ages, and 13 year old boys are one of those ages. When I was in seventh grade, one day, I went to lunch and we had to sit with our classes because lunches were getting out of hand. I sat down in a spot where I'd be alone because I have a social phobia that battles with my natural outgoingness, and then a bunch of rowdy boys sat around me. I thought I was going to go mad with fear. I was shaking so badly, and they noticed and kept looking at me weird and I couldn't help but think they were thinking of me in a sexual way and would hurt me. But, they didn't. I got out of that room as fast as I could. "
