| | | so apparently i try too hard when it comes to making friends apparently i act overly interested in people and that really turns them off. its really hard to control, i think people are extremely interesting and i would definitely read people's auto biographies.
i guess i dont really feel comfortable in silence and would rather talk about anything than sit there and stare at a person.
but i dont really like talking about myself, because my life is pretty boring and i feel like if i tell stories ill lose people's interest so i guess i ask people general questions about like how long they have been at my school/what their major is. he says i should just not say anything, and let people talk to me and be friendly back when they do talk to me.
the bf was like "you try too hard to be nonchalant"
i'm really laid back and i REALLY suck at "fake laughing" when someone tells a joke and its not funny to me at all. im just not a giggly girl. also i think my smile fucking sucks, so i dont like smiling alot around strangers.
yea so who else completely fails at social situations
its like i dont even want to talk to anyone new unless ive had a few drinks lol :\
i dont think theres any hope for me |

| | | I definitely think its nicer to ask people questions about themselves when you meet them, because most people can happily talk about that. I suppose though you do need to contribute something of yourself to the situation otherwise they will feel like its the Spanish inquisition. And nobody likes the Spanish Inquisition. |

| | I suck at advice, so discard/ignore as necessary!
Has somebody (or maybe more than one person) said something to you which has made you feel self concious, which maybe makes you do it all the more? Dudette, relax, and continue being yourself. It sucks when people don't give a shit about others, so it's a beautiful thing that at least someone does.  |

| | There is always interwebs
You can always talk to me since I'm arrogant enough to only talk about my self and ignore you completely heh. j/k
Usually people love when you show interest in them. I know I do 
No matter how mundane first few questions might be it always leads to more. Conversation is bound to happen if both parties interested to keep it going. I can bullshit for hours or cut conversation in under a minute. The matter of fact I'm en expert at ending conversations. |

| | Unless Im really good friends with someone I dont like talking about myself...so usually prefer daft insane convos - and yeah a drink does help - but I am nosey so I do like to know things about the person I'm talking to.
Though if people are really boring I quickly change seats - think its coz Im a byotch...but I dont care. Though shoe on other foot and I'd be in tears
I think its good that you're interested in people - maybe your boyfriend insecure or jealous coz you have a genuine interest in others and he's misinterpreted it - oh hope im not shit stirring here
just be yourself and do wot you feel is best |
