you ride the bus to uni. is it a school bus? as far as the blushing that may always be there . there is a surgical procedure called Endoscopic Transthoracic Sympathectomy. It blocks the sympathetic nervous system ganglia that cause blushing and sweating. surgery is extreme though . whats so bad about blushing some girls like it and flirt about it.

Seriously, when i'm old enough and am earning my own money an Endoscopic Transthoracic Sympathectomy will be one of the first things i'll try to sort out. I blush so much around both sexes (people in general). Usually I blush so badly my eyes will water, and people ask why i'm 'crying'..

Surgery is probably not the answer for someone who occasionally blushes around the opposite sex. Blushing is a catch-22. The more effort you make not to, the greater the chance you actually will, and then once it begins it is exacerbated by the realization that you are blushing. Sounds like a difficult thing to do, but the best solution may be to go with the flow. Let the blush happen and don't focus on it. Learn relaxation techniques and focus on those instead. The blush will abate and may not even be noticeable. And the more successully nonchalant you can be about blushing the less you will actually blush. And SPG is also onto something, a certain number of girls will actually like the fact that you blush and may be turned on by it. So its not all bad.

Blushing's my thing too, i do it all the time, drives me nuts, however i have learnt to live with it. Actually most men who see me blush that hard when talking to them think it's cute....i don't agree but well you see my point ..don't stress about it so much. I would see a girl blushing as cute. Dont know what women think of the opposite situation with men who blush though.

Yep I have major problems with blushing, in all sorts of circumstances. I think there is a fine line between 'cute' and 'weird', as blushing all the time isnt really considered normal. Ah well. Hopefully balaclava's will come back into fashion.

I had a friend in high school who blushed anytime anyone mentioned her blushing...scarlet completely. People thought it was fun to tease her about it and make her blush...like walking up to her and saying something like "watch this, she'll turn red!" And she would...every time. It was like she had absolutely no control over it. I've had blushing problems but not like that. She was probably one of the nicest people I've ever met in my life. Her family was military so she moved away before graduation...wonder what ever became of her.

i blush whenever the word woman or anything sexual related is discussed in a large group (ie. in a lecture) I am fine in small groups or one on one, but yeah. it's embarassing

ahh...sounds like me...i dont even know that i am blushing and people are like..ooohh look shes turning red and then that'll make it even worse... hmm, that surgery thing mentioned earlier sounds great! and yeah, lonelyheart, i can relate to that i find it worse when i'm talking to a person i hardly know at work or something though and a sexual thing comes up, and then they assume you are offended or fragile or something when these things are mentioned and gah! its just as i said before, a curse

hey im new here. I have the same blushing problems around guys. i cant even look them in the eyes because i know as soon as i do I will turn bright red. and you can tell they notice. and I dont just do it in front of guys...its in front of my friends, family. whenever i talk i seem to blush and i dont get why. im not embarrased. and i cant stand when people say omg i was so embarrased and they looked completely fine the whiole time. my manager always asks. did you get some sun because i turned red?..when i start talking to her and im like no. just wish I could stop blushing. i would be so more outgoing. wish there was a way to stop it without surgery or drugs....medical drugs...lol
