As a poorly adjusted, easily flustered person, I have a tendency to leave out entire words and phrases when speaking. These aren't minor oversights like omitting a throw-away article or adjective. I’m referring to important sentence components vital to the idea I’m trying to express. The best example came a few years ago while attempting to describe a concert experience to my girlfriend.

Here’s what my brain was attempting to say:
"Last summer, me and Kevin went to this outdoor music festival. It was great but we were so tired by the end of the day, all we wanted was to soak in a hot tub. That would’ve felt SO GOOD!

And this is what my mouth actually shat out:
"Last summer, me and Kevin…hot tub…SO GOOD!


While this verbal mishap didn’t produce any serious consequences (other than merciless teasing that continues to this day), I’m horrified that this tic is going to rear itself during a really important conversations that include but are not limited to:
- Legal depositions
- Job Interviews
- Marriage Proposals
- Obituaries

God forbid the day when I decide to get married and ask my girlfriend’s parents for permission to wed their child.

 This:
“I love your daughter very much and with the blessing of you and your wife, it would be my sincere honor to drop to my knees and ask her to make me the happiest man on earth.”

will come out as:
“ I love …your wife…honor…knees….make me…the…man”
or 
“Your daughter….blessing…your…would…on…earth…SO GOOD!”

That's why I don't talk to people.
