Oh boy!

So I'm having this barbeque of Friday. All the guys I work with are coming. Wives are going to be there. Friends and thier girlfriends are coming. My good friend is bringing his girlfriends sister. I guess you could say it's a blind date at my house but not really cause 15 or so people will be there. But I'm not sure how to handle this thing.
Advice?

Yeah, "be yourself" is always good advice, but more importantly have fun! Are you expected to hangout with this girl the entire time, or are you running the BBQ? Meet her, see if she wants to help cook the meat or make a salad, if you have to keep things going as the host. If she is cool and willing to help that is good, then just keep the mood light (You are at a BBQ after all) and enjoy yourself. Don't force conversation, if you have nothing to say, don't try to come up with stuff out of nervousness, introduce her to some people at the party, I don't know whatever feels comfortable. Don't stress it Brother, you will do better that way. Good Luck with the Q! Give us an update on how it went down after it's ll over.

well you could introduce her to other people as well since she might feel a bit alone and nervous! getting her involved is a great idea too.

Yeah just be yourself man. Be friendly and welcoming. You may be nervous but think about how she may feel. Chances are she probably hasn't met many (if any) of the other people that are going to be at your party. So she's probably nervous and thinking to herself, "What am I going to do with myself there?". Introduce her to other people, offer to get her something to drink, maybe show her around a little bit. If something's going on like a game of some sort or whatever, be sure to let her know she can join right in. Don't ignore your other guests or neglect your host duties. lol. Just relax and show everyone a good time and she'll have a good time too. And like CalmInTheStorm said, if she offers to help out or seems like she would like to help, let her help! Great way to hang out and let the conversation go where it will. Have fun, dude!
