Do you like talking to people or do you avoid conversation?

[Pinay_ako]

Which one are you? And which people do you usually approach to talk to? Why?

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

I love to start conversations with people. My philosophy is that every stranger is a potential lifelong friend. I might actually like this too much since sometimes I break away from my friends at a party to talk to strangers and invite them to hang out with us.

I also have an oversharing style of communication where I tend to quickly transition from small talk to the types of subjects that people only talk about with best friends or family. It has a divisive effect on people. Some people are turned off by it and I tone things down a notch in those cases. Some people reciprocate and share just as freely and openly and then we tend to become good friends really quickly.

As for who I approach, I don't really approach typically. I just talk to whoever is around me.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

The one case where I do approach is if I'm at a party, for example, and I see someone sitting in the corner and looking kind of lonely. Then I'll break away with my friends and maybe sit down and ask them how it's going, see if I can get them to smile and cheer up a bit, and if they truly do seem to feel a bit left out, invite them to hang out with us.

I tend to empathize deeply with people who look like they feel left out of a party since I used to be a shy teenager and I know what that feels like. So when I see someone who looks like that at a party, I tend to approach and see if I can cheer them up.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

Sometimes I misread it though. Sometimes people sitting in a corner don't want to talk much, or at least not to me. So then I'm like, "My bad. Have a nice time!" and rejoin my friends.

I don’t mind it but I’m usually stoned in my own little world running errands and would like to not be bothered 😂

I love to talk to people but at the same time it can be rather hard sometimes..

I wish I wasn't able to talk at times over the reasons of so many jerks around through the years making me cry, have panic attacks and anxiety...

[Bilboes]

Because of my profession, I need to be in a social environment, and that's why I interact with dozens of people a day. But if I had the luxury of being isolated from everything, I would do it without question.

[msc545]

I do this quite a bit although it often becomes them talking and me listening. I don't mind at all as I enjoy listening to what people have to say for the most part. Interestingly, about some makes them feel a lot better to have somebody to talk to, which is the whole point.

[TommyMountainFigure]

I gauge the surroundings. If someone doesn't wanna talk then I'm not going to force them, but I'm always approachable for a chat!

Yep I do!

[beebella]

I'm not a talkative person in general, so I assume most conversations with me are not very stimulating. 😂

[DancingQueen16]

I don't really talk to many people because I have really bad anxiety like when I was in high school I didn't talk to anyone outside my social circle unless they talked to me first

[rosemilk]

avoid avoid avoid :)

sorry, just so many people suck the energy out of me as soon as they want to small talk

[Lliam]

I enjoy talking to people, especially if they are knowledgeable. I'm not that crazy about talking to idiots.

[BadApple69]

I will talk to anyone, anywhere, and for any reason. Grocery stores, on the street, in line at a movie theater.

[Nikki1989]

I talk all day long. It is a big part of my job.

[sheikalana]

I avoid making conversation and I don't like being approached.

[AlexEfron]

Just people? Nope.

I generally don't initiate a conversation, unless I have to. I talk to people once I get comfortable with them.

[NathanDavis]

that's what I do all day... lol

[Pinay_ako]

🤣 sounds fun! Love it

[dragoblack]

I like talking to people when they have a fun topic to talk about. Otherwise i keep to myself.

[LunarEclipse433]

I enjoy talking unless they seem disinterested. Then its a major turn off be it a guy or girl

[Eleni1996]

I enjoy making good conversations. Avoid some A holes.

[justabuddy]

I'm ok for a bit long conversation can sometimes be tough.

[Fuentes]

I avoid unless I have too

[Pinay_ako]

We talk so i feel good 🤣

[RavVid]

Briefly as in a couple of sentences

[LavLavLuv]
