So, have you ever wanted to talk to someone and get to know that person but then for whatever reasons you did not. The end results with the two of you ended up as strangers to each other! :bigsmile:
It can be someone in real life or people in EoFF! Share your experiences here! :bigsmile:
If I want to talk to or get to know someone, I usually walk up to him/her (or if it's on a forum/chat I send a msg!) and say 'Hello' and initiate a casual conversation. But I admit I can sometimes be very shy about it.
When it comes to wanting to get to know someone I really like, I'm mostly shy in approaching this person about it. :greenie:
I'm really shy. :( (Unless intoxicated)
What an interesting fellow
This is exactly the same for me. Im actually really quiet and dont approach people i dont know...unless a bottle of vodka has been consumed and then im fine to talk to literally everyone in sight :DQuote:

I'm fine irl though, I know everyone.
I usually always talk to people if I want to. My problem is when I talk to someone, only to find out they have no social skills and are one of those people who talk AT you for ages, and ignore any input you put into the conversation. I am a magnet for those people.
I can be a bit apprehensive -- not necessarily shy, but I will usually communicate with them if I want to. The funny this is I don't mind talking to people who talk too much. I prefer listening. I'm lazy that way.
I... som... di you hear abou...GOD IM AN IDIOT -runs away-
I want to reply to my visitor messages but I never know what to say :(
I dont think Ive ever initialised a conversation with a stranger or atleast not since primary school
There was a classmate in high school that I shared a lot of mutual friends with, but I never got to say more than three words at a time because we were both shy so we both seemed really rude and we decided not to talk to each other. :|
I'm an out-going person, so it's not an issue for me to talk to people.
However, there is this guy. I don't know him, and he doesn't know me - but I know he's a mo, and for some reason I've developed this small crush on him. I've only seen him like a couple of times, and I'm too nervous to talk to him. It's ridiculous xD
Dude, I WANT THAT SIGN in the OP! I will go make one.
If I've ever wanted to know someone, then I came to know them. Sometimes I think, "Oh, she's such a badass, I can never think of anything to say to her" or "oh, he's so arrogant but interesting, I can't get a conversation going" but then I always end up talking to the person.
I generally go by the assumption that people are not worth talking to.
What's a Mo? Just talk to me dude i won't bite.Quote:

'Cause I can't stand awkward conversations. That just leads to even more not talking'ness. But yes. Lots of people I've wanted to get to know. Lots of people I've lost connection with. And lots of "I don't know what to say" :/
Yeah, as Vyk already said a "mo" is a "homo" :monster:Quote:

generally most people are idiots.
Usually I just talk to them anyway! :jess: Sometimes I do get shy, but I still talk to them! :bigsmile:

There are a few people here that I would not mind talking to but not enough to actually make first contact, since I'm really iffy about doing that nowadays. That's pretty much my opinion with talking to anyone though. I hate doing it myself but I am not against reciprocating if they manage to get hold of me.
>>> I use the internet to express my opinions or debate about something, Im not the kind of guy who will constantly chat with people and make friends, of course im polite enough to answer the questions or when other people is talking to me.. I dont see the point of make friends with people that you will never see in person and live thousands of kilometers away..:luca:
I'm a pretty good chatter upper...Actually what I get shy about is that I my IRL might not match up to my URL personality if I meet someone.... :(
Is it ok to have a man crush on Cuch...His drinking/Irish ways are somehow magnetic....
Is there someone you don't have a crush on?
this is true. I'd be a compliment if it was anybody but pakistans horn.Quote:

I'm recently not-shy, no idea when this happened but at orientation I relized I could talk to just about anyone and be perfectly fine. Most of the time I don't start conversations with random people but why not? I've also realized I can talk to girls which is a huge plus from before :D.
I think the only time I start getting shy is when there are groups of people that know eachother and I'm kind of the "outsider", anybody else have this problem?

Hey that was a little uncalled for Cuch.Quote:

Wow, I shouldn't have skipped straight from the 1st page to the 3rd O_O
I'm a little shy if I actually like a girl, but I'll approach women when I'm drunk and out and about. Full blown relationships are hard work, just not something I have time for at the moment.
seriously:eep:Quote:
