What is intellectual ballache?

Inability to express yourself for fear of drowning the recipient.

The sufferer has too much to say and fear that he or she will not be understood and that the recipient will feel overwhelmed.

I was on a date with a really cute, but not too clever, guy yesterday. I suffered from intellectual ballache throughout the date. He is not used to dating academics.
