On the other hand, you seem to delight in informing everyone on GFY about how anti social you are and how much you hate being around people. I'm interested in why, and what you're really like away from the comp. Are you a complete bitch to people, or more the shy type that doesn't respond when someone talks to you?
This is a genuine question  |
Well, it depends on who the person is that is trying to talk to me and what they want. If it's someone giving me a compliment in regards to my appearance or clothes etc, then of course I will be nice and say "thank you". It also depends on my mood. Usually if it's someone making small talk I usually brush people off.
I am not COMPLETELY retarded, I know how to be polite when I HAVE to. For example if I have to meet someone for business related things I ONLY present myself in the best light and say whatever it is to make me look the most friendliest, but if it's someone I don't know, like someone out of the blue... well then I could really care less.
If it's someone talking to me for no reason, then most of the time I try to cut them off nicely. Most people know not to talk to me. It's not that I'm rude, I think people can tell I like to be left alone because I turn away from people.
And I have defensive body language such as crossing my arms when I walk. I also don't smile and don't make eye contact. So people know I'm not there to make friends.
I don't go out really, usually it's only to run errands like buy food or deposit money in the atm.... But I don't like to socialize like at clubs or in crowds of large people. I just like to be left alone.
