Nervous Deadness Situation

One of the most awkward situations in life is the "nervous deadness situation."  This is where you bring new information to the table to someone you are friends with, and it forces your relationship to change.  It will either turn the relationship for the better, or it will destroy it.  There's no taking back this information once it is out in the air, and if not dealt with quickly, the situation will go from awkward to nervous and then to a dead feeling when you're around that other person.  And I bring this up to let you all know that I've done that with two of my newfound relationships/acquaintances in the last 72 hours.
