Are you socially inept?

I am, and I want my social skills to improve! :x

I feel disliked by random people, and it interferes with my life.:(:x:evil:

So, are you socially inept, or can you pretty much talk to anyone without feeling stupid, disliked, or ready to crap your pants?:P

EDIT: Stupid quote things!!!:x:x:x

I'm referring to that thing in the poll; the word famous is supposed to be in quotation marks!:x

I'm fairly socially inept. I'm good with talking to new people in fairly formal situations, but not in informal situations. Once I get to know someone though I'm totally comfortable.

I would say I am. I would much rather hang by myself than talk to people I don't know. I sometimes get nervous when at the store lol

I guess so but then sociallising in the general sense dosn't particularly intrest me. I just rarely find the need to talk or have anythin to say, why people feel the need to constantly talk and yet say nothing seems quite odd to me... and yet i have 21K posts here

I'm not sure if I'm socially inept, or if I just have very little interest in social conversation. When I find somebody that I want to talk with, I seem to have no problems.

I guess... Since when I do get social with somebody I end up annoying them in the end.

I also get a little nervous in public.:( I feel like people are looking down on me, and I hate being stared at too! :x I prefer being by myself as well.

I'm pretty introverted, I like keeping to myself. Although I'm getting better, mainly because I"m working at a fast food joint as well as being an assistant coach, so my people skills have improved a bit over the past year.

I'm socially adept on the surface. I have no trouble saying hello or goodbye, plus a few superficialities, but beyond that I'm very uncomfortable and try to avoid others as much as possible. If I ever have to go to an occasion where I know I'll be socializing, I get drunk first. The magic bullet.

Yes. I'm good with conveying my ideas on an online forum such as this, but when it comes to public speaking, or even conversations with people I don't know well: I fail. So if I was to be asked this question by such as person, I would have just responded: "Yes".

Not at all. I get what I want out of almost any interaction (in a manipulative way) Or I can go out (when I actually want to) and have the time of my life.

Same here. I get some more time to think about what I'm saying but I talk right off the top of my head in real life. Simply put: I'm a lot more immature in person, even though its never my intention. :x

I do alright. Some days I feel more nervous than others, but I get by.I've always beena nervous person though, even when I was a child. Inept though? I wouldn't say even close. I'm a social person.

I am one of the most socially inept people of a generation. I have only 2 real friends and they're both busy most of the time. Someone I only met once wrote to someone in a lecture that I was a freak.

I am a complete introvert... I don't mind being in social situations as long as I am not the least socially awkward, people should never depend on somebody like me to start a conversation; anybody who has been in that situation could tell you the level of awkwardness can be unbearable.

Doesn't an online forum sort of curve for those that are introverted?

I don't really think so. I'm not the best at striking up conversations with people I don't know well, but tend to handle social situations well otherwise.

Hey, whatever floats your boat. I eat chocholate chocolate chip ice cream and listen to the Spice Girls when I'm depressed, but you don't see me bragging about it. [spoiler] :P [/spoiler]

I'm somewhere in the between. I don't seem to make a lot of conversation, yet one of my best friends just got offered a modelling job, so I'd say I know a colorful bunch.

Somewhat. Sometimes I get into a funk where I feel "ugly," and it kills any good mood I could have.
