Okay, so i'm a really self conscious person. I can eat in front of my parents and friends, but i can't go into food places like McDonald's or restaurants to eat, also i can't eat in front of my boyfriend! We've been together for about 5 months now, and we've known each other for about a year and a half overall. When we go out together, we normally go around the shopping city or sometimes his house, and i don't eat for the full day and i know that's not good for me. I do eat, i'm not stupid and starve myself, i just can't seem to find the confidence to eat in front of my boyfriend. I am totally comfortable with and around him, its just that one problem. He knows how self conscious i am of myself and he tells me not to be etc, yet i still can't. I know i'll have to sometime, because soon enough, he's going to invite me round to his house for tea or something, and I don't want to be rude by not eating and stuff.. So is there any ways I could boost my self confidence with eating around my boyfriend and maybe his parents? Thanks :]
P.S I didn't know which category this would go in, so sorry if it's in the wrong one D:

That's not the case.. I don't think I eat like I've never had food before, or that I don't have any manners, its the fact I'm too self conscious to even eat the least messiest foods around anyone. I'm 15, I know that a lot of girls my age have problems like this because they don't feel confident enough, I was asking if there was any ways to overcome it.. ¬¬
