Describe yr behavior
 
How do all of you socially act?

I would find it hard to describe myself without being biased. I'm generally really shy, but I find I can talk too much about something that other's don't care about. I'm usually a musical asshole, but I do respect other people's tastes when talking to them. Most people consider my humor sense 'weird' because it's often about extreme subject matters that they would take personally, and often sudley sarcastic. I'm not assertive at all, but I'm working on it.

im really shy and anxious, i often find i cant stand close to people and im constantly needing to stand up and sit somewhere else. I dont speak much, mostly mumble my words when i try to speak. In a nut shell im a social retard

luxinterior 04.05.2007 12:21 AM

In social situations I am more quiet than not, unless I'm around close friends. But yeah, I don't feel the need to fill the silence with anything other than farts, which I blame on other people anyway.

Jokes aside, I really am quiet, and I probably come off as being humorless and boring, especially to my coworkers. I'm okay with that, and I actually prefer it that way, because I don't like having too many people know too much about me.

By the way, your avatar turns me on.

Quiet
Introvert
Closet nut case
I tend to lose my head when I get on the street at night, I will jump on/over/into anything

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 04.05.2007 12:50 AM

I'm everything.

Introverted/Extroverted, prude/perverted, loud/quiet.

Dead-Air 04.05.2007 12:55 AM

I'm disgustingly mature. Sometimes I get in little argument/debates on the internet about music, but otherwise I tend to diffuse conflict without even trying. On personality tests I come up exactly even between intro and extro and between left brain and right. I tend to hit both extremes, but only as needed. I'm pretty confident at this point in my life, but it was of course a long road to get here. That said, I'm sure I'm due to fuck up soon enough.

SynthethicalY 04.05.2007 12:56 AM

I'm shy with new people, but give me five minutes to ten and I will tell them my whole life. I can talk to anyone. I don't care if your gay, black, jew, hispanic, white, lesbian, asian, blue, just as long as you are cool. I detest people who are ignorant. I am relaxed, somehow I can listen to any of your problems, and somehow give some good advice. I get moody, I can be talkative one point and quiet the next minute.

cryptowonderdruginvogue 04.05.2007 01:45 AM

i am VERY outgoing, i love small talk, i enjoy networking, etc.etc.etc.

SynthethicalY 04.05.2007 01:46 AM

What the hell is small talk?

cryptowonderdruginvogue 04.05.2007 01:48 AM

"how was your day?"
"so your sister goes to ut? how does she like it?"
"did you watch the ohio and florida game?"
"how about them astros?"
"dont you just hate liberals?"

SynthethicalY 04.05.2007 01:48 AM

I see.

Norma J 04.05.2007 01:49 AM

I come off as arrogrant alot because I can walk past somebody I semi know without stopping or saying hello. I just don't feel the need to talk on certain occasions. I'm the quiet one until I'm relaxed. This also plays apart in the asumption of arrogance. I also talk alot more when I'm drunk, not over the top, but like any normal person would talk generally, then when people who I really only speak to when I'm drunk see me when I'm not drunk, then they assume I'm full of myself. I am just comfortable with my own company. Alot of people are scared to talk to me at first, I find out when they get to know me - intimidation.

cryptowonderdruginvogue 04.05.2007 01:50 AM

oh okay
well then, i guess i dont enjoy small talk.

SynthethicalY 04.05.2007 01:50 AM

Damn you why must you be funny, I can't rep you.

cryptowonderdruginvogue 04.05.2007 01:50 AM

cryptowonderdruginvogue 04.05.2007 01:55 AM

ioh well fuck you too then
goodnight sir

_slavo_ 04.05.2007 02:02 AM

I've been getting really shy in the recent years, which is pretty weird, as I used to be a really assertive and leader-type teenager. I don't know why it is but I just don't feel good among people nowadays, with small exceptions of best friends, girlfriend, etc,...

ploesj 04.05.2007 06:18 AM

i behave totally different in groups, when i'm in class you hardly hear me, but when i'm with people i know pretty well i turn into a noisy absurd rabbit. oh well.

sarramkrop 04.05.2007 06:52 AM

Dismissive or erratic.

jon boy 04.05.2007 07:53 AM

goody goody/bad bad.

Pookie 04.05.2007 08:00 AM

Enigmatic.

sarramkrop 04.05.2007 08:02 AM

Pookie, do you throw enigmatic body shapes at your own posts?

Maybe I do, maybe I don't.

afterthefact 04.05.2007 08:13 AM

I can be very introverted in public. I mean, if somebody talks to me, I don't get all wierd or anything, I can hold a good conversation, and even throw in a couple witty remarks. But I am not very assertive and I rarely start conversations. And when I am buying CDs, I never start conversations with the dude at the store. A lot of people I know do, but I can't, I just feel awkward. I just look around until he puts it in a bag, say thanks, and leave. I am trying to work on being a little more social though...

fishmonkey 04.05.2007 08:23 AM

i'm a little too outspoken for my own good really, i'm the person in yr group of friends that will tell you that yr breath is smelly/that top doesnt really suit you blah blah, but i'm also the person in yr group of friends that everyone comes to for advice, which is nice. i like being the person i am.

I like people like you. I don't like people who want to tell you something, but are too afraid they might offend you. The fact is, if my breath stinks, I would really like a friend to tell me, before I walk out into public and everybody is giving me wierd looks.

being social doesn't mean telling funny stories to the guy at record stores.

if you can maintain a decent conversation with someone, call yourself social.

Yeah, you are right. I think I tend to compare myself to my brother. While I would not consider him a role model (he's an admitted redneck who loves big trucks and as of recently is angry because John Deere doesn't make their own engines for their lawn mowers (?!?!?)) he does have the ability to go into any store and leave 15 minutes later being best friends with the people behind the counter.

sarramkrop 04.05.2007 08:47 AM

Just a thought. If you can really describe your own behaviour on an internet site, doesn't that mean that you are a self- conscious vanity fair atrocity to start with?

king_buzzo 04.05.2007 08:54 AM

Hyper.

I always think it's funny how it's the people who appear to spend every waking hour of their days on the internet are the first to point these things out. Sometimes in order to fix something about yourself that you would like to fix, you have to identify it first, and writing it out makes you think about it. Now I'm not saying that an internet message board is the best place to do this, but come on, who are you to talk?

gmku 04.05.2007 09:18 AM

Introverted, reserved. Not sure if I'm shy so much as quiet. But I'm more outgoing with friends and people I know at least a little. In a new situation, or meeting a group of new people, I'm not terribly uncomfortable or anxious around people, I'm just not as outgoing or vociferous as the rest of the group until I feel "settled in," if that makes sense.

floatingslowly 04.05.2007 09:28 AM

I was once told that I'm weird by a person with authority in the matter.

personally, I think weirdness is an art form. too little and you are just "odd", too much and you are "strange", or go even further and you become "creepy".

it's a fine line to walk.

I think I might be too nice sometimes. I tend to put others before me any chance I get, but these favors are rarely reciprocated. and despite what I'm sure many here might think, I'm not really an asshole. I just play one on the internet.

gmku 04.05.2007 09:39 AM

Yeah, in real life, I try to act nicer than the assholes around me. And there are a lot of them. It does no good to stoop to their level.

If you say so, i believe you.
