I used to be social awkward, until my late twenties. Looking at how my father had interacted with people around him, the man was a social genius (rest his soul), he could strike up conversation with anyone, any-time, any-place, any-age.
I used to think it was embarrassing the way he just started to talk to strangers, subconscious, I guess I learned, because now I find that I can talk do just the same as he had done.
Have it made my life richer? I dön't know. I still only have seven really close friends, and that suits me fine.
At a party, who doesn't want attention? If it not a fancy dress party, or a congressional party.

I'm pretty awkward, and not a massive fan of meeting new people.
That said, I realise that it's unavoidable, so I guess I tough up and do my best.

I dont have problems making freinds, I just fail to keep in contact for some reason, I guess Im just not a very good freind, thats why they want me to use facebook, and mabye I would but I think the fact that they are telling me too puts me off and I dont just to spite them so I can be like Im "above" stupid things like facebook....if that makes senseWadders said:
so In other words I have alot of contacts but I don't keep in touch so therefore I don't realy have any freinds.....wait no that dosnt make sense either
I get irritated when Im being told how to organise my life, If I want to use facebook I will if I want to be anti-social I will, also I have no one in real life who I can discuss games with which is why Im on the escapist alot
Fairly social. I get along well with people and get together with my closer friends quite often.
I have a small group of friends outside of school.
In school, depending on my class schedule, I range from either end of the spectrum.

Weekdays, it's strictly online or at school/school functions.
On the weekend I try to hang with friends as much as possible though.

Today while sitting down, I took to criticising the acting of the people around me. These were everyday situations, but the way the people acted struck me as so forced and contrived, that I was convinced that this all part of some matrixy illusion to convince me of reality, and a poor one at that.
So ya, I have little interest interacting with crappy actors.

"What is this 'social' you speak of? And tact, can you eat it? What is it made of?"
I am the perfect definition of a social recluse.

I hang out with my close friends fairly often, and get along well with people when I'm with a group including people I don't know, but I don't tend to seek out social interaction much. Being with people drains me, and I need time alone to recover from it.
