The worst thing that happens is when I go to social networking or lunch with coworkers and I end up sitting across from someone who is also an introvert. We both just sit there in silence lol

Being a introvert I never thought that these are the things that make me extrovert and I can't wait to try these tricks...really thank you so much...love you man!!

Tbh, for me, it's quite easy to talk to someone that is really strangers. But once I met someone who I somehow know (maybe just name, or a lil about them) I started to panicked how to talk to them. Idk why this happened, but it keeps happened.

Oh man, all the flashbacks from the networking events when I was trying to find a job as a student and when I already got a job. Honestly, it is terrifying even for an extrovert. Social gathering is pretty scary especially you are alone and you don't know anyone there. I am currently experiencing the same thing at work as I have a hard time participating during work meetings. Not because I don't want to but because I either don't know what to say or I am always getting too in my head and I am waiting for the perfect opportunity to speak. I like your tips about not hesitate too much and anticipate a good outcome. As most of the time, speaking up will only yield a good result and people will kinda forget what you say soon so no need to hesitate too much! Thanks for the tips!

This is gold. I completely lost my social skills because of COVID-19 isolation.

Thank you for this! I struggle with conversations a lot these days. I used to be so good at them when I was a kid. Part of the reason why i had a lot of friends but that died down really fast at highschool. it's like a factory reset. I didn't know how to even speak and have friends. My voice just bailed on me too. Even now at home, i still suck but i hope i get better. I'm going to see my friends this Saturday. I really hope to be able to practice there and be more myself without becoming a clam shell.

i hung out for the first time in 4 years, it was with someone i've known for 8 years but haven't oficially met irl too (we live 15 minutes away from eachother) he had 2 other people over, when he told me that i already thought "hm i wonder how that's gonna go" im more of a listener. I can feel very included in the conversation without actually speaking, and i find too much comfort in it and i dont always realize that that is happening, i really do think along with them, i just dont say anythting until someone directly looks at me or mentions me. I asked him the day after what he thought of it, he said he had fun but was sad bc i gave such short replies. He told me multiple stories, and i really enjoyed them. I'm just never sure what to say, i always try to take the story apart and see what i can comment on, but sometimes it just isn't a lot. I definitely want to work on how to speak with people (btw i have no friends) bc i now realize how important it actually is. I just hope it wasn't a major setback for him that he may not want to invite me again, but only time will tell. Until then I will work on my social skills and think about what I can say in certain situations. I NEED THIS TO WORK lmao
Edit: We met up again but then just the two of us. Haven't heard from him since, it was nice while it lasted lol

This is a really good topic! I like the tip to share something relevant - it helps keep the conversation going and keeps everyone interested

I felt like he could read my mind.
He very well understands how introverts mind work.

[lizh.]

Thank you so much! ☺ I can totally relate to being a shy introvert and hesitating too much about what I want to say if it matters. So lesson learned, don't hesitate or doubt yourself. Just be open and chatty

I awkwardly contribute, I will work on being confident and not focusing on my group conversation mishaps.

[nobodysperfect]

"Knowing how to be socially confident, or communicating with people well, socializing with people successfully is so important.

It’s unfortunate, too bad, tragic, because the majority of the education we get in school, is academics like Chemistry, Physics, or Math, History.

However in the real world, none of those things really matter.

It’s really your ability to inspire, communicate, to lead, and engage people that’s going to move you in upper management if you’re climbing a corporate ladder, and what gets you a date if you’re single, befriend new people, and you want to put yourself out there, and even build a brand new network to advance professionally if you’re in a new city. That’s what it means to me."

I wholeheartedly agree or just never truer words have been said or spoken

Solid stuff! Extra tip; Have a "Win, win, win" mentality

[karenflores]

I have a question, what do you do when someone invites you to a social event and once there said person enganges in a conversation with someone else that doesnt pertain to you? Said something they experience together or they talking about gossip and then they totally ignore you? Last time that happened i disengaged and excused myself and left.

[rockoutconsiderably]

That's a great point you bring up about being in the moment
