The way you write shows how disconnected you are from people, I think you were going for that. I've written similar stuff and I that's why I've noticed it. Honestly, you probably think you suck at talking to people but perhaps you probably don't. I'm assuming you're young and when you're young trying to fit in can be difficult. But trust me it gets better, I was in your shoes once but I had hope. You should to. Eventually all this popularity and being "cool" will stop existing. In the meantime, just work on being a good person, start seeing the good in people and have a little confidence in yourself. Like I keep saying, when it comes to confidence, fake it till you make it. But like I said, try to work on being nice to people, even if you think you're a loser, which probably isn't true, start thinking more positively.
It's amusing that you could judge my level of alienation via a few paragraphs, but that's just my normal style of writing. To be honest there are a lot of times when i'm feeling lost for words, and in those times the other person either carries the conversation or we glance at each other awkwardly until one of us departs, so I can tell that i'm not the best around(initially...it takes a while for me to open up to others). Trust me when I say that i'm not as young as you think, I've already missed out on that critical juncture where the odd teen becomes adopted into a social group and learns the inner workings of conversation. It's just a bit odd speaking to a 23 year old man in college who doesn't know a joke from a statement. Thanks for the advice though, I agree that a lot of it comes from confidence(which i'm sorely lacking in).
Honestly I'm at a lost of words a lot of time, but I usually care enough about the person I'm talking to to try and continue the conversation. When it comes to talking to people, the best advice is to smile and just try to get to know the person. I guess you should first start off with the superficial, like "how was your day?" and then slowly work your way into having the person talking about themselves. It takes confidence, but like I say fake it till you make it. And also, you're probably not as awkward as you think.
IIN that I wish to no longer feel the desire to be around others?
