Social Suicide Anyone?

So I am severely anti-social but I still end up in scenarios in which I have to talk to people I don't know. Because I am so terrified of talking to people, when I do have to speak I can come across as strained and all that jazz. Pretty much there are instances where my tone doesn't match my intent. I had a run-in with this problem today when I was talking to a new college professor of mine and apparently, I sounded hella rude... So I screwed up :/
It explains why he sounded so rude when talking to me today. Now I feel like I need to apologize and shiz but apologizing=more socializing=DEATH. I'll apologize regardless though. I hate when this happens!

Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone else has any stories about social anxiety or just you socially screwing yourself over.

Not me but my bf. There was an instance where my bf was talking to his teacher at uni about his project and at the end of the conversation the teacher said "go back to work", to which my bf replied with "you too" without thinking it through. To this day, I still can't help but to crack up whenever i remember it. reply
