Are You Social, Anti-social, or good in Social Situations

I am anti-social around people I don't know, but very social with people I know.

 

I dislike social situations, but I think I'm quite socially adept, when I want to be. Mostly, I don't have the motivation to be nice to people.

 

I'm social. I'm kind of awkward around new people, but I still try to talk to them and make friends, even if it generally fails. I like being around people though. Being anti-social would kill me.

 

If I know someone well I could talk to them for hours. Im awkward with anyone else, apart grom old ladies (they seem to love anyone and everyone). Its not so bad over internet though, like in EC

 

I tend to make a fool out of myself because I try to be social around people I don't know. I also tend to scramble my words around because I have like 6 different responses that come to my head at any given time.

But I've been told that after the first hour or two I tend to become "pretty cool" to talk to. So I suppose social with a tad of anxiety

 

It's very easy for me to walk up to people, shake hands and ask questions... Unless if it's against procedure or the law.

But just because I can be social doesn't mean I end up having a lot of friends.

 

I'm very social with my good friends, classmates, basically groups of people in which I know every member very well. I can be social, loud, funny, crazy etc. to the point that most of my friends think that I am a very confident extrovert, although in reality I'm introverted and often anxious. When it comes to meeting new people, I usually just smile and nod, so they usually think I'm weird and akward. Basically I'm fun if you give me time and get to know me.

 

Bit of a recent pet peeve of mine, but "antisocial" is actually a clinical diagnosis (and really doesn't mean what I think you think it means). If you just mean someone who isn't very social, you could probably use the term "non-social" or something like that.

 

Once I get over the initial shyness I am a very sociable person, especially after a few drinks, my character changes from a shy person into one with confidence

 

Being shy and anxious really does make finding someone that much harder unfortunately

 

I am the most awkward person ever. I try to be social, but it usually requires the person to converse with me and not the other way around. If they don't make a good impression then I'll continue to be polite, but if I have to see them repeatedly after that and they continue to annoy me then I may well end up snapping. In general, I find it very difficult to socialise, but I still love being in groups of people. I do find though that apart from very close friends, I find it awkward being alone with people who I could happily chat to if there were a group of us.

So, to summarise, I try my hardest to be a social person but I'm not very good at it.

 

Calling oneself antisocial is a fairly heavy duty thing. Maybe there's a better word - reserved, shy, aloof, who knows. I am ok in social situations, provided I can find a person or two or three to talk to. I also get worn down by the experience and breathe a sigh of relief when I leave. I do not like any event with sizable crowds, and never really have.

 

I don't know what I am. I mean I do talk to people, but I'm always on guard, I can never really enjoy talking with others because I'm constantly waiting for them to say the wrong thing to me so I have an excuse to hate them. Many times I wish I was legitimately anti-social, people are just......I hate humans lets leave it at that.

 

ALL OF THIS. I've always been pretty odd, but now it's more because I feel confident enough to be rather than acting plain awkward.

I tend to make friends reasonably easily but I'm hardly a social butterfly.

 

i like being around people, but suffer from exteme social awkwardness & social anxiety
shit sucks yo @~@

 

I'd say I'm pretty social, so long as I fee interested in engaging with the situation. Then, I set into motion: Seeking common ground in conversations that seem to be leaving some people stranded, making people feel included, listening and then returning my own related stories and anecdotes only later.

I think it's a very good thing to try to cultivate what I call a sense of charm; it can take a person as far as many other qualities one might cultivate. Good manners and a pleasant bearing cost nothing, after all, and one can put this influence to a variety of mutual advantages.

So I would say I'm a social person, who even goes so far as to consider being social an art form, something one might hone like the Japanese art of flower arranging, Kendo or the forging of a fine chef's knife, all the while quietly preserving the dignity of the self.

 

I have lots of good friends and I like socialising with my good friends. People tend to like me. But I'm not very social around people I don't know, and sometimes I have trouble with empathy, even towards people I love.

 

I hold my own in social situations, and I'd say I'm fairly social.

 

neither, i'm asocial
