It’s hard to put yourself out there

 

[Shenanigans90]

It’s hard to put yourself out there

It’s extremely hard for me so humor is my escape.

 

[LadyLascivious1]

It’s hard to put yourself out there

It can be really uncomfortable. But I also think it’s when I feel closest to people and appreciate them most.

Saying anything nice about myself to myself ever.

Small talk

"The Weather" is seriously a cheat code for this issue, speaking from experience.

When I bring up weather though I feel like I'm just holding a sign that says "hi... Small talk is my kryptonite... Nice to meet you" but then again maybe that's why it works?

 

[MedicalMuse]

Not sure if my reaction is right. When you say you suck at vulnerability, you mean you are bad at being vulnerable? That doesn't fit with your signature. (I'm not obsessed with your signature today, I promise!)

I love being vulnerable, I suck at it though. It’s hard to put yourself in a vulnerable position and risk being hurt. I’ve been burned pretty bad by people here. Yet here I am, continuing on. Trying to stay open. That’s what I mean.

Self confidence.

Small talk is, by nature for overthinkers exceedingly easy to overthink.
Theres....an unspoken agreement that this is inconsequential yapping to pass time. I usually let others lead so Im always in thier sphere of interest as thats Easy Mode for me.
You are still gonna get folks sometimes who arent intrested and will make you feel awkward, but dont pet it get to ya!

*Furiously scribbling down notes muttering* let ..others ... Lead....... Got it

Not overreacting in the moment. Part of is impulse control because of ADHD and the other part might very well be just me?

I think that's closer to the point.
I find small talk pointless and irritating and unless I like the person I will almost immediately want to disengaged from whatever vapid nonsense is being discussed. Unfortunately I am frequently in rooms with A) dislikeable people and B) vapid people

Playing the lottery. Doesn't matter if it's pull tab, scratch off, the powerball, whatever I absolutely suck.
