Why do I get hiccups so much around guys?

Question

Almost every time a guy my age approaches me and strikes up a conversation I get hiccups. They often get so bad I find it hard to breathe and I'm forced to grab the nearest glass of water I can see.

It only happens around guys for some reason (particularly ones I like) . Its really humiliating and stupid when your half way through a conversation and you suddenly start letting out lots of squeaky hiccups :(

Any idea why this happens to me?

And is there any way I can stop it?

Answer 1

If nothing else at least it will be easy for the guy to tell if you like him :D What I find weird is that I can get rid of my hiccups every single time by holding my breath. But for some people that does not work ever. Which is why I believe we get hiccups for different reasons. Sorry I cant answer your qeustion though :P

Answer 2

Its probably a nervous reaction. You just have to overcome your fair and anxieties when you are around guys you like.
