How are your guys' public skills.



I for one have pretty decent ones, normally people on forums don't have good ones. bit a lot of you do. I'll do about anything in public. Or won't be shy.


My social skills, I don't use them often. I just don't like... People. But to be honest a lot of people I meet get on my nerves. I also prefer to stay to myself.



How about you guys?

you've met with a terrible fate, haven't you?
I honestly have pretty poor public and social skills. Growing up, I was always really shy, and throughout high school, my parents never really let me go out and do anything (over-protective and such because my older brother got into drugs and whatnot), so that didn't really help things out. Nowadays I generally don't like people to begin with so I wind up preferring solitude to large company.

Its totally me


That's a good way to come out of a barrier. Sometimes you just need to meet somebody. I don't really have a "best friend" I've never really met that perfect friend. You could say you are not likely to meet the perfect person for you. But I've never really met somebody I considered my best friend. I have had many friends, but none that stuck to me.

Despite the fact that I spend a lot of time online I'm actually a highly social person who is usually the most active one in a conversation. It's probably a side effect from being in a drama club, but yeah I'm pretty damn good with people.

I found when I had a "Best Friend" i was less likely
to go out and meet new people.

My social skills are pretty awful. I am extremely shy and I usually say very little to people until I know them well.

I don't talk very often at all and I'm pretty shy around everybody but I manage to make friends very easily and I'm pretty well liked by everybody, which I believe is due to my quietness/awkwardness.

I think a lot, but don't say much. Mostly because what I think is extremely rude. Until I'm good friends with a person, or unless there's a topic I really have something to say about in the conversation, I don't talk to people much. Strangely enough, despite my horrible people skills, I'm generally well-liked. I think it's because I make a good sponge to absorb their problems. Adults like me more than people my age, it seems. Probably because I show a lot more respect to them than most kids, considering my mother practically beat it into me (something I am very grateful for), and they actually get my humor. If you couldn't tell already, while I'm not speaking to people, I'm analyzing why I'm not and why people still pay attention to me. Which is seriously surprising, considering a normal conversation with someone new goes like this:

Person: Hi!
Me: ...
Person: Too bad August's almost over, right?
Me: August is summer's way of overstaying its welcome.
Person: School's starting soon though, isn't that a bummer?
Me: I'm homeschooled.
Person: Well, there's a lot less sun in the fall, so...
Me: I despise the sun.
Person: I like you!
Me: What the hell...?

I like to think I have semi-decent social skills, when in all actuality, it's just not true. :P I'm sure a couple people here can vouch for me. XD

Fairly good Public skills. I don't seem to fit in with some of the kids at my middle school (whom are of immature pricks who pretend they actually had sex).

Social skills are super easy to fake, just ask the person you are taking to a lot of questions. This makes them feel important when talking to you. Eventually a question will hit a topic you know something about and you can talk about that.

I used to have absolutely horrid public and social skills. I maybe got home from school every day in high school and possibly talked to my mom and dad once or twice a day and no one else except for people on the computer.

Around the end of senior year I was a bit more open but my mom and dad generally were kind of protective and didn't always let me do some stuff but especially since I've gotten to college, my social skills have improved ten-fold and I am now much more out-going and open to do more things.

So loud that everyone in this place
Will hear every word I say
Cause this is my time, this is my time to shine
Let nothing stand in our way"

I still think mine is worse, My Public skills are shattered
My parents are also rather protective, especially my dad when I'm on the internet
