Her Crush Gives Her The Hiccups!

Dear 4TNZ, 

Help! I have this HUGE crush on this guy from my camp. But every time I try to talk to him, I get so nervous, that I get uncontrollable hiccups!

Not only that, but the last time we chatted, I tried to hold my breath…and ended up letting out a huge burp. YECCHHH!

What do I do? How can I actually talk to him without looking like a freak. And don’t say “stand on my head,” cuz that totally doesn’t work. Just makes me dizzy.

— CHARLENE, 15, Des Moines, IA

That’s (hiccup!) really (hiccup!) terrible (hiccup!), Charlene. We totally feel for you.

Our advice: Take a deep breath before you talk to your crush, carry some TUMS with you (antacids sometimes cure hiccups) and, if all else fails, just have someone scare the bejeezus out of you!

But what do you guys think? Is there a way to quickly cure this hiccuppy problem?

And is a burp a dealbreaker, or does Charlene still have a shot with her crush?

Belch out your thoughts below!

i usually hold my breath for 15 seconds, if that doesnt work i usually have some people bring up a random topic to make me forget about them and they go away. and if that doesnt help drink water like one heck of a lot of it.

Nah, I've heard my crush burp millions of times. Yours shouldn't care. But, if you have the hiccups, sqeeze the middle of your hand for about 15 seconds. Works every time.

put your lip on the outer edge of a glass of water lean over and take a few sips of water upsidedown!!! try not 2 get water up ur nose!!!!!! dis rely works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 
Avatar

if it REALLY bothers you then hold your breath while drinking 9 gulps of water. works like a charm for me... or at least it makes 'em go away faster

 
Avatar

ditto.the best way is to think of him as your best friend and talk causlly.being yourself is the way.

 
Avatar

I agree with Twilight Lover 95. Just act as if he's a normal friend! Pretty soon, if you don't hiccup in the 1st five minutes, you'll gain enough confidence!

 
Avatar

Just think of him as any ordinary person. Don't think to yourself "okay, I'm going to talk to him, don't hiccup, don't do this, don't do that", it just makes it worse!

 
Avatar

i think the best way is to embrass it just like wat happens to you can happen to any one. when i 1st hiccuped in front of my crush it just came out of no where and we both just stood there with my hand over my mouth. then we both started to crack up so hard!!

i duuno

well, u can take a big fresh drink when you go talk to him, and keep drinking while you talk. If that doesnt cure the hiccup, just say "oh no, i got hiccup, do u kno how can i get rid of it?" it has worked on my crush!

 
Avatar

I feel so bad for you! I have a similar problem...but i think u should just act like he's any other guy & dont think about the hiccups & you'll be fine :)

 
Avatar

pretend he s just ur bff and dont think about him makin u nervous or u will get even more nervous

 
Avatar

I agree with katybabes. I also think you still have a chance with him. If he is really nice he will probably forget about it.

 
Avatar

just calm down, think what your guna say before you say it, and breath,

Begeebies is what i hear...

that sucks i feel bad fur u lol

 
Avatar

ok this works EVERY TIME! you take a drink of water and swallow it while ur upside down. lol or u can out ur head between ur legs

 
Avatar

This is a an old secret in our family but i'll tell u cause ur desperate. bring a bottle of water and put a paper towel over the lid. then drink it for 10 seconds with the towel over it. works every time

 
Avatar

Here are a couple of ideas. 1: Bring a glass of water while you are talking to him. 2: Hold your breath! 3: Tell him that next time you want him to bring something that will scare the crap out of you

 
Avatar

OK you get rid of hiccups super fast by taking a drink of water and plug your nose and ears AND it goes away! just swallow when your ears and nose is plugged

 
Avatar

I agree. You should carry a water bottle. Hold your breath for a little while (20 secs) then drink water. And you'll be fine.

carry a water bottle!!!!

Have a friend hide near-by and when she hears you start to hiccup, have them jump out from some secret place that they didn't tell you and when they jump out screaming, I bet it'll scare ya and it would get rid of your hiccups AND give you and your crush something to laugh about.
