i can feel my cheeks getting hot but i don't think i really change color. but it's like a blush that doesn't show. at least i hope it doesn't.
Come to think of it, i have been getting a lot of sun so my cheeks were already a bit red.
It's such a horrible thing though; as I start to blush, I feel more embarrassed, so my face burns hotter.
Eventually I have to hang my head and shut up.
If I think about what I'm going to say in a group situation, rehearsing the phrases in my head, I do pretty well.
This leads to missing out on giving a lot of input as the conversation may have taken a new trajectory as I'm planning to speak.
I have a classic case of "esprit d'escalier".
