| I'm not good at approaching people, but I'm very good at talking/keeping a conversation going if someone approaches me or I'm out with someone I don't know very well. I think I have pretty good social skills. I'm naturally very shy, but through work and going out I've kind of gotten over a lot of that and learned how to push myself to be social. |
| I pretend to like everyone I talk to. Eventually I find out what they like, then carry on by conversation by ad-libbing and improvising on the topic, usually one I know nothing about. A life of pretense is necessary for me to engage in social interactions. Yes, I'm pretty good at meeting new people. |
| Sieg Zeon! |
| it's literally one of the things i am best at. i can hold a conversation with anybody. i don't always enjoy it but i'm good at asking people question and making them kinda.. open up to me lol most of my best friends are really introverted people but they say that being with me is really comfortable and that they can literally confess anything to me. the easiest thing when you want to try talking to strangers is talking about your own passion. i'm a very passionate person and people have told me time and time again that they could listen to me talk for hours because i just.. get really happy and my eyes start to twinkle and all lmao.. so yeah.. talking to strangers is easy if you open yourself up a bit. makes it easier for other people to do the same. :) i'd rather talk about my passion than about the damn weather. |

| I can be mad chill with evry1 |
| No. |
 |
| I'm not so great with starting conversation so that's my downfall when it comes to meeting new people Once I get started though, it's impossible to stop me. I just need to get comfortable first |
 |
| Hell nah. I'm not even good at meeting people on MAL. |
 |
| I guess I'm normal. |
 |
| Yes, specially when I'm drunk. |
| yeah sort of, only thing I still struggle a bit with is keeping a conversation alive |

 |
| I've met many people for the first time and have showed a good first impression. So Yes I'm excellent at relating and making conversation. |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
 |
 |
| No, it's they who are bad at meeting me |

traed said: Its always really awkward for me since i never know what to say and im not comforatable around people i do not know well awwwwwwww, I find that hard to believe. |
| I'm talkative and friendly, so I do pretty well, but the lack of common interests is often an hindrance, especially towards male groups, because I have no interest in sports, motors and such. |
| I'm pretty much good at that. Plus I like meeting new people! Get to know people with different interests is fun. As much as it is meeting people with similar ones. |
 |
| Well, the problem for me is the exact opposite than most people here. I'm a cross between Yuri from Angel Beats and Misaki from Sakurasou, both of which, are crazy and I like to drag random people to random things XD. Hey, if I'm going insane, might as well drag a few with me! ;) |
| Nope i really suck at this one |
  |
| Hmm, I guess I am? I can maintain a decent conversation with anyone as long as we both have atleast one common topic to talk about. I'm not that particularly good at small talk, sadly. |
 |
| It's a learned skill.. You have to be quick and witty and all together fascinating. Really, if your life is boring AF then you'll be boring AF and there's nothing to talk about. Live a little, have some adventures, and you'll be cocktail party ready. |
| It completely depends on the situation and the other people. I can't explain it, but sometimes I barely can open my mouth and dream of earth swalllowing me, and sometimes I chat like with an old friend. I guess it's the atmosphere or something that makes me either nervous or brave. |

aloricg said: Oh, thanks for comin up a term to explain it! It's called liquid courage, colloquially. (although, I first read it as a "liqueur" courage and thought that it fits too, after drinkin a little courage you are definitely in more brave mood) |

| I don't have many problems, between university, my yoga classes and the occasional evening at a bar, I have a lot of opportunities to meet new people. I guess I'm pretty selective when it comes to chose which people I want to interact with though. I can't really start small talking or open up with anyone when I'm not really feeling the connection. It's hard to describe. I try to be polite though when someone comes at me at starts a conversation. I wouldn't want to make the whole situation awkward. |
 |
| Nope. |
Hibiki- said: Nope. Ahahahaha XDD, love your bluntness +1 |
| Nope, I won't talk to you unless you talk to me cause I'm afraid of not getting a response if I started the conversation. |

| Somewhat? I stopped counting the number of first dates and my job involves one-on-one meetings with people I've never met So at the very least I have a degree of experience, no idea if I'm good at it |

I guess I just don't like to categorize people like that cuz it feels too black and white :/ It's mostly gray, you know 50 shades of them XDD so basically I believe in proportion rather than categorization ;) |
KyubeySensei said: I kinda get what you mean cause lumping them in just one category won't probably be hundred percent true. I just thought there are things that can only be answered with yes or no and why/how will only follow after. And most of the time you won't have the chance to explain so you'll just resort to saying a single word or phrase. Ahhh..nvm me T_TNp, I got the idea.

| It's holding the conversation that is difficult for me. I really hate that awkward silence that happen after a little chat. My mind would think hard about what to say and most if not all the time, I couldn't think of anything. |

I don't like being misunderstood as much as losing in a conversation so pardon my blabbing haha (and yeah, I have this habit of answering every post that are for me. I feel like I must answer them no matter what haha)Nah, I know I am being difficult and stubborn and you do have a point, but I guess I just enjoy the world for its complexity rather than simplicity ;) |
