Be yourself. Your partner obviously thinks you are terrific, or he wouldn't be with you or be bringing you. Just be yourself. If you get nervous, excuse yourself to the ladies room to take a deep breath. That's all. After a cocktail, you should be just fine. But watch your consumption. Just have one to loosen up and be social. Smile, and be polite. Shake hands when introduced to someone. You will be just fine.

Advice 1# Be Yourself! Unless you outrageously rude and inconsiderate. People enjoy a down to earth and outgoing person over someone who's quiet and snobbish.
Advice #2 Have Fun - Don't worry about a thing. Apparently you're bf isn't ashamed of you, otherwise he wouldn't have invited you, lol. It'll be interesting darling.

okay. just act like yourself. have fun and before the party relax and listen to calming music or do the thing you enjoy doing best! this will relax you. and at the party hang out with your friends. Have fun and enjoy the moment. If you see the guy you like look at him but dont over do it. You dont want to seem like an obseesed freak. Just go with the flow! =] good luck and have fun

Boy, you are nervous. Be friendly and attentive and maybe a little reserved so that you won't be the center of attention and then I assure you, you will start calming down and will start enjoying yourself. They are just people. Have fun.

i think its normal to be freaked out . ( i do in such cases)
so i think u should do as i always do
do not start the conversation i.e dont do actions , only do reactionsuntil u forget ur fears and till u get the trust in ur self
20 minutes later u will be great
believe me . i do so

Just be yourself (cliche, I know). There is no reason why these people wouldn't like you, right? Once you get a couple of wobbly pops in to you, it'll be a breeze!

Don't be overly friendly. Keep conversations short with his friends.[unless he is also in it] Don't leave your partnert's side. Other than that... meet new people and have fun.. ohhh and don't drink or let your partnert drink too much

just be cool and calm. don't ask your boyfriend about anyone, that way when you go to talk to them you will have something to say. oh, how are you, what do you do? are you good friends with my bf. talk about christmas for goodness sake. everyone can say something about that. ask the ladies how their shopping is going. if they are enjoying the cold weather.
