Are you a very sociable person?

[OneViewpoint]

ROFL, yes and no. It's complex. It's variable.

With 75% of people I'm a blank wall. They get no opportunity to engage with me and little response if they try. I try to stay invisible and if that doesn't work they get one word responses, no questions, and a blank face. I just don't want to interact with the empty, damaged, or stupid people in this world.

With 20% of people, I'll give them a chance to prove they're not idiots. So the wall comes down about 50%. I'll smile, joke, and do my part to keep a conversation going while measuring what I'm dealing with by probing their limits socially and cognitively.

The final 5% is what I'm looking for. Healthy adult personalities who are curious, well informed, with good cognitive skills, and a sense of humor. Here, my walls come down completely and I flip a switch to start engaging with wit, humor, playful flirting, deep questions, while challenging their minds, boundaries, and beliefs. These are the people I will work to keep around me.

So yes, I can be really gregarious and social, funny and empathetic, challenging and deep, flirty and naughty. When I want to be.

Yes. I really enjoy being around people that I like. I like to hear and tell real stories. Especially old time stories that are past down. It makes me happy knowing people tell their grandparents or if you're lucky to have known great grandparent's stories.

I enjoy being at parties with people. It exercises my minds ability to be present. Something I've been better at as of my 30s and especially 40s is letting others talk without interrupting.

I think I might have ADHD and because I grew up in the 80s and 90s I was told I was just hyper or couldn't stay focused. That used to upset me because I'd get like an excited puppy around people I like especially if I haven't seen them in a while.

As an adult, I have practiced not blurting out every thought that pops into my head when others are talking, so I can listen and hear people better. So for all this being sociable allows me to be in an element that I'm usually happiest in and continue to practice to be a better listener.

[FreyaRed]

Depends. I don't need other people or have any desires to spend time with others, but people want to spend time with me because I have the ability like every schoolbook antisocial personality to tell them what they want to hear. I predict their emotional needs and psychological desires and they feed my curiosity about human behavior. It's mutually beneficial and I think this makes me to some kind of sociable person even though surely not in the usual way like normies do.

[midnightmoon05]

Pretty social. Easy for me to initiate and carry on a conversation. I also like my quiet time.

[NathanDavis]

I am a sociable person, yes... but there's a balance to it, I believe

I am generally friendly and outgoing with those who approach me or interact with me and that I am genuinely, I do enjoy it... but I am not actually one to seek it or to start it

if it happens, I'll make the most of it for sure... but I also value and care for some solitude, the good kind of solitude... of course

[Zack-Bann]

I absolutely am


I can be left alone but I don’t enjoy solitude


Most of my friends are introverts and they don’t often get where I draw the energy to be with people as often as I can


But I also don’t give away my time
I won’t socialize with the wrong crowd just because I enjoy socializing
I do select my audiences

[french_omelette]

I'm introverted. I have a boyfriend, a girl best friend, and two guy friends. If I want to talk to someone I can but it's usually if I need help or working with someone.

[Nikki1989]

A bit too much for most people. I find myself having to pull back.

[MannMitAntworten]

Pull back? Why?

[Nikki1989]

@MannMitAntworten I am a chatterbox.

[Ironco]

I'm the same way, I'm always doing something.

[MannMitAntworten]

Chatterbox isn’t a big deal as long as the other can get a word in on occasion. Only once did I go out with someone who only allowed me to get a word in while she was taking deep breath pause. Even the lady sitting nearby looked at me with a face of, “Oh, you poor man…”

[Joshydavid25]

Yeah, I sort of am.. I'm pretty friendly, and will easily talk to anybody who comes up to me.. For the most part..

[Geo1970]

Yes, but that’s down to who I’m with.


If they don’t get bone dry humour….. I get bored of them very quickly.

[Kaneki05]

No, the extreme opposite. Though I love a person who I can be with.

[AviatorTom]

Around the right people, Yes. Around others, not so much.

[andreasderjuengere]

I am if I must.

But I prefer the company of my dogs.

[Jeff51]

I used to be more when I was younger. Hate to say it but now it's different but I still do talk to people.

[rosemilk]

no, not at all.

[Zoe91]

I learn 5 years ago if in captivity to long I get depressed. I need to be around people.

[RedInnocent69]

I have that reputation, but don’t really feel it most of the time

[Kingofkings1992]

No, I’m not. I’m mostly introverted. I can be very social at times though. I’m like a 75% introvert 25% extrovert hybrid

[exitseven]

Not really. It takes people a while to warm up to me. I am told that I am an acquired taste.

[Anonymous]

I'm not, I'm quite selective when it comes to social things.

[Chazmatazz269]

No, only moderately sociable.

[capriVib]

I don't, being very social makes me uncomfortable.

[soe11]

• Yes absolutely.

[douride2]

For the most part yes I am.

[WonderingManII]

It depends on the person I am talking too.

[Dongie]

I used to be but not so much anymore.

[shortster]

Nope, I am terrible at socializing

[fish5505_87]
