I'm So Antisocial

[lleeder]

My next store neighbors moved out and today some new people are moving in. I saw the husband, I assume ,moving in his stuff with his older father. I passed by them twice going to my car. I said not one word to them. My last neighbors lived next store for 5 years or so. I never said goodbye. I can only meet people over this thing or with alcohol.

What you need to do, is give them some kind of welcoming gift, like a center piece or something.

[CofyCrakCocaine]

I'm having a similar problem with my neighbors who moved in four or five months ago. I see them and their kids all the time, I never say a word to them and I don't even wave. I feel like such a ghoul not waving to them, but I assume they'll think I'm some asshole if I say hello.
I'm not even that antisocial once I get to know ya...but it's getting to know someone in the first place that I suck at.

Thats true your a great cab hailer. How could people not love you?

[Marc with a c]

you aren't anti social, you are just a dick.

Work on your English, it'll help you communicate with people.

Who's this Matt guy you speak of? I'm sure he's charming and all but lets focus on my problems.

[ChimneyFish]

Take it from a modern day hermit, what you're doing isn't even in the shade of being antisocial.

[SarahImpact]

I understand where you're coming from. I'm kind of like that. For some reason, when I'm at work or going to class i can seem social, but to go out and socialize totally different story. I think maybe i just subconsciously hate people.

What do you think you're "supposed" to do? Bake them a cake? What, is this 1958?

I guess at least introduce myself and not avoid making eye contact.

[AngelAmy]

im the same way, i dont normally initiate a convo or approach someone unless i am very comfortable with them no matter what setting i am in whether it be at work or at a board event or what have you. i dont even start convos with my own family members, i am just horrible at the whole social thing.

i live in an apartment building. i cant be bothered talking to anyone yet the whole building knows me. keep to yourself, you are better off.

Silly! Then the next thing you know they want to borrow your chainsaw, THEY USE IT TO CHOP UP THEIR VICTIMS, IT GETS TRACED BACK TO YOU AND YOU'RE DOING LIFE IN PRISON! ALL OVER A LIL' HELLO AND EYE CONTACT!

Not worth it.

Same here. I'll think about talking to whoever is there, but then I just avoid the situation and walk the other way.

As for family members, I can joke around with a few of them about sports and wrestling, and if shit gets heated, political bullshit.

Man, No Wonder You People Spend All Day On The Internet; You Suck At Real Life!

Lleeder, You Most Definitely Are NOT F_S; Fat Would Have At Least Walked Over And Said Hello!

Now, Fat Might Feel A Bit Differently If The New Guy Came Over To His House And Said: Hi...I's Yo New Nayba*

*Sharpton, Pixie, Etc...That Was Just A Cute Little Joke. Leave It Alone.

I'm sorry I really need to connect with my inner F_S

Same here.
Even with family, if I don't have some alcohol in my veins, don't expect me to be at all personable.

So my buddy is all ready to hang out with me today. And suddenly I don't feel like hanging out. It's a gorgeous day outside, but here I am, sitting on my duff, not wanting to go out until 4 hours from now. I want to hit a bar, at night, close to midnight so there are fewer people in the bar and a chance of nabbing a bar stool, and throw down a few suds with my pal. I want to be a barfly. That's not exactly social.

But god forbid he wants to just hang out, not drink, and play video games or watch a flick with me, cuz I don't want to do anything with him other than drink beers and bitch about life and bitches. Perchance he wants to play a game of Chess milord? Why bother...and I don't have any good two players games...I have yet to get a Wii. Maybe I should go wit him and see the Grindhouse...my chick don't like babes n' bullets type movies.

But I'm probably just gonna sit here and think about maybe hanging out with him until it's 9pm, and then I'll wanna do something. Shame he wants to be home by 11pm.

As much of an outsider as I usally feel, I'm amazed I'm identifying with some of the posts as much as I am.
This exact scenario has happened to me countless times before, and none of my friends quite understand it, even if I try to explain it to them.

[JesterOfSadness]

I'm even a complete antisocial when it comes the WeeWorld.

I must be a terrible person..:sad:

[A.J.]

I don't know my neigbors either. I suppose I'll be one of those guys they'll tell the reporters "he was quiet and kept to himself".

[IamPixie]

I'm the same way. I Hate having to socialize with people at work. I have nothing in common with them and I just want to eat in peace.

[Don Stugots]

i'm very anti-social. i hate talking to anyone.

[A.J.]

That's a good point -- and why I usually bail on office happy hours and company parties. It's the whole "worlds colliding thing". That plus being single, I don't want to have to hear about significant others, spouses, life partners and children.

I'm married with kids and I don't want to hear that shit.

I'm Earth 2 Lleeder.

[patsopinion]

good more lleeder for us

[Gvac]

There's nothing I enjoy more than meeting new people and making new friends.

You're all a bunch of weirdos.

[A.J.]

I go to board events. That's HUGE for me.

I decided to beat Clint to his whoring..

[Alice S. Fuzzybutt]

I live in a brownstone and there are two apts to a floor. My neighbor's front door is two feet across the hall from mine. If I hear them leaving I wait until they're gone before I leave my apt. And those are the neighbors I LIKE.

I've often waited in my car to wait for my neighbors to get into the building first so I don't have to run into them in the tiny vestibule. Why is it the neighbor I like the least takes all the time in the world to get into the building?

[King Hippos Bandaid]

this is very funny, in my house growing up, I would never speak to anyoe, maybe giv e a nod once in a while.

One time I was plastered and was the life of the Party with the Neighbors, after that they would want to chat, I turned back to my anti social self and nodded and waved.

Nothing worse then small talk with someone that all you have in common is that you live near each other
