Do you enjoy social situations?

Post Reply New Topic

In larger cities, it can be a pain approaching strangers - they are suspicious.
And I'm fairly good looking and well dressed. See I'm quite friendly... I used to be, now I go for reserved.

As for having to know and say hello to everyone.
Don't feel the need to. You can become the quiet guy.
They will just get used to you being the quiet reserved guy.

Many regular people have low days. If you wanted to you could put a sad look on your face and lower your voice, also responding with short sentences. They'd soon thing you were down, and leave you be (not minding if you didn't say hi to all of them. On the other hand this might back fire and they may be so curious/worried they may interrogate you, to see if you are okay. (this might be too deceptive for you).

Also many regular people forget names all the time. Heck I forgot the name of someone I was working with, and my memory is mostly faultless (especially with names).

I often get bored and lonely when I don't socialize, but I'd much rather NOT socialize if I had the choice. Video games are helpful in this way because they alleviate boredom and loneliness. However, when I do have to socialize I borderline on stupid, and I'm more or less entirely incompetent when it comes to having conversation.

Somewhat. I feel better after spending some time with people, but it's very hard to follow and focus on what's going on at times.

I enjoy social situations. Particularly when its a brawl about something interesting.

I oftentimes get bored and lonely when I am in social situations. Unless I am with people I know very well (i.e. > 20 years).

It depends on what kind of people I'm around and how much we have in common. I don't feel like it's worth it when I'm around people who play social games and talk behind each others backs a lot.

I also like talking one on one better than in a group because I feel like it's easier to talk to them and we can have more in depth conversations.

When I'm tired though I usually don't want to socialize very much with anyone.

yes.

it's as if i have a set quota for social interaction, and after having around with someone for the day, i can lay in bed pleased doing nothing and i won't feel like a lazy slob.

if i do that when i've been isolated for a matter of days, i won't be as pleased and will be antsy to talk to someone..

i get what you mean by it being hard to follow. i sometimes have trouble understanding speech and wish real life came with subtitles .
