How do you forgive yourself from making awkward mistakes when socializing?
Most especially if the mistakes are unintended.
You shake hands with people, greet kind faces, do all the the right things. All warm and good, right?
But you sputter at times. Someone gives you a side hug and you freeze. A person makes a remark or observation specifically for you to respond to, but it takes you longer than a second to understand what they meant. And all those mistakes make you feel like your crumbling from the inside.
Maybe you find the people who socialize with you more forgiving than you are to yourself. For that inner vantage point, how do you, who experiences the embarrassment, find the 'thing' (if it even is a thing) the will, the compassion, or whatever it is, to forgive and not be so hard on yourself? To move on and not crumble under your own expectations?
