    I have completely stopped giving a shit if my initial interactions are awkward. One time I approached a circle of people and just asked if I could be invited to the conversation.
    I was a weirdo, sure, but people appreciated that I was friendly and wanted to talk anyway. I eventually made friends with a few of those people through mutual shared interests.
    Nobody cares if your awkward. It's obvious that you're a little goofy, but it doesn't matter, and it's not worth hiding in the first place. Most people don't analyze social situations like that, and they just want to get to know the new guy.
    Matter of fact, 'social' people get away with socially unacceptable shit all the time, simply because they don't care. They're viewed as 'cool' because they break all the rules, but they aren't even aware there were rules in the first place. That's why alcohol is such a great social lubricant. You stop thinking about interactions so hard. It makes you just reckless enough to not care if now is the time to jump into the conversation with your thoughts.
    Even worse, your fear of being judged can be confused for arrogance. Usually that's what happens to people who avoid everyone. Nobody puts together that the guy hiding in the corner has social anxiety. They just think that guy hates everyone.
    You can ester be a little weird up front, or you can be viewed as arrogant. Pick one.

    When I lived in Brazil things were so much easier you can literally walk down the street or go to the park and talk to anyone. Here in the u.s where I live, people look at you like you're crazy for trying to start a conversation and some even seem annoyed !! Ppl will give u dirty looks for saying good morning. I never felt anxiety talking to people in Brazil. But here I feel so scared I'm going to annoy someone.

    I am big fan since so much I can’t recall if it was 4 rather then 6 yrs ago! Really enjoy your work, together with Aussie man review you’re my fav UA-cam artists! I saw a lad suggested the moving out plot and actually worked out, so gonna try to call some shots (obviously they’re just mere suggestions and have no actual demand): 1) pro and counts of falling in love: good sensation vs commitment and becoming depending; 2) how to choose a pleasure purpose read; 3) types of approach w sheila; 4) types of vacation: budget, location, company; 5) pro and counts: relationship vs dating; 6) worst thing/mistake that could happen at work; 7) portrait on how our generation will fit in role of parenting; 8) extravagant plot, eg Canada profit of Trump wall building to invade the US/how Europe would be if it was lead by Greece/Bruxelles and Frankfurt in the EU governance: function and objectives; 9) types and dynamics of particular small talks and setting. Eg: elevator, gf parents, bartender, newspaper shop; 10) time process and paradox, eg: growing/remain at 20, party/relax and have a quiet time, getting wasted/becoming picky w alchool brand and chronological order or simply not up to risk to overtake some irrational choices. Keep it up men, regards from Italy

    Jokes aside, this video, like most of your other videos, are pretty helpful. You really know how to break down simple situations and casually explain them :)

    Random girl: Hey, I really like your sweater!
    Me: Ummm... thanks. Okay, bye. (Why TF is that weirdo talking to me.)

    It's not so much making friends, but finding them. When you live alone, work from home, and live in an area with no public social events, what chance do you have?
    Right now my options are I either accept online friends as my only option. Or go to a bar, and just interrupt conversations by saying "I need new friends, and I have chosen your group to adopt me."
