Yeah..when I go out...and just study...I don't talk much...but if I'm drinking beer I'll walk right up to a girl, get close, flash her a big smile, and look her dead in the eye, and get a very positive response and a big smile back...until I look down and notice that she has 2 latte's on the counter next to her, and then the guy she is with walks out with her...
As I have gotten older I have broken through the shyness barrier, sometimes I'll smile when I'm not completely feeling it, but I feel good enough to fake it..lol...but the last woman I did that to, could tell I was faking it...lol...then later the same night or maybe another night I was lit and completely feeling it and I got a very positive response but she was with someone...
Also sometimes i drink and get totally burned out, so so tired...the other night I went to go see my housemates band on impulse, and on the BART train I knew that I had made a big big mistake because I felt sooo tired, then I went to the cafe, filled up with water, listened to some old Black Sabbath and took the BART back to my apartment, with not a single thought of seeing my friends band...he told me the next morning that they had a good gig, but that the promoter tried to rip their band off, even though they had the largest crowd of any band there. Tough times financially for many....
what percentage of your time is spent socializing???

I go through phases. Sometimes I am very social and sometimes I am a hermit. But I can almost always carry on a conversation.
