RE: Your social skills

Kleenex · March 08, 2015, 03:35:38 PM

List tips and experiences of your social life here. I was wondering if you guys had any friends outside of the Internet. I mean, it's okay to be socially shy. But someday you're gonna have to come out of your shell. You can beat the anxiety that has ridden you of a good life if you just put some effort into throwing yourself out there and seizing friendship by its balls.

I can't be bothered to talk to people that I don't find all that interesting. I have the people I talk to online, and this one girl who likes me, yea, thats about it.

You should expand your social clique my friend. Just calling anyone a friend has already increased my friend count from zero to 1.

I believe I heard the word "Social" before...

Unless I talk to them on a regular basis, I can't consider a person a friend, otherwise they're just an acquaintance.

Social interaction is a huge morale boost at times. I need to get away from my thoughts sometimes and just be with friends.

You must have real life friends. Someone you can talk to right Jimmy?

My friends are casual lifters and we joke about lifting and cars and stuff and laugh at stuff on >reddit. But yeah they're real swell dudes man.

Uhh well you see, according to my doctor, it appears that I may have Asperger Syndrome or similar ASD condition, but that he will arrange for a specialist examination to make a firm diagnosis. Asperger syndrome, also known as Asperger disorder, is an autistic spectrum disorder that is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction and nonverbal communication. I hope you understand what I am trying to get across to you, not many people do and it's quite worrying ^^

Nothing bad. Its just good to get away if you've had a bad day at work or something like that.

I need social interaction, I'm not content with just staying at the house all the time.

Nope

I have a girl I could text and she'd probably talk to me, but I haven't talked to her in a year.

Your mom needs to know if you're okay you should hit her up.

I think I worded my first response rather deceptively. I'm not depressed, I just like social interaction.

Depressed people tend to seek out social interaction more. I'd re-evaluate your current emotional state if I were you.

People are uninteresting to me and this I have no reason to have anything to do with them. If you don't talk to me, I won't talk to you.

Apparently, my attitude is rude, for some reason.
