jooj하 질 I have a lot of animals and the place I use to live only allowed more traditional pets like dogs, cats, etc. I have a couple of tarantulas and some other animals that are not allowed. I have 5 dogs and they are all quite big so, living in the city was not an option. Especially since the housing price plus living expenses for both me and my animals wasn’t exactly affordable for me. I thought about the country side but I found that the farm I originally owned but I found that I just didn’t like the scenery. I always was fond of the forest and in my old childhood home, there was a forested area in my backyard that I would spend hours in. The great thing about the forest is that there is always something new and exciting. My dogs especially love it because of all the trees and smells. They get excited every time they see something new (last week, they met a porcupine... yeah, I immediately called them back). I think all of my animals love it, even my rooster has laid claim to my house and our small part of the forest.

jooj하 질 I live mainly with my pets but, my siblings and friends are constantly at my house. My nieces and nephews are at my house so much that they have their own room and I always find things that belong to them (mainly clothes). I like how I can just work out without anyone bothering me. I use to go to the gym but it got uncomfortable when guys would take notice so now, I just workout at home or in the forested area. It’s a really good exercise because there are so many slopes and uneven grounding that I’m basically getting a workout just trying not to fall and roll down the forest. The trees, bushes, rocks, boulders, occasional animals, etc. are all like a big obstacle course because I’m constantly having to maneuver around, over, or under it. I do tai chi so I find that my surrounding is very ideal. It’s not boring at all! The night is full of nocturnal animals (mainly Paku, the owl that likes to hang around my chicken coop and do it’s little screeching in the middle of the night). I’m not really dependent on technology since I do have a lot of responsibilities outside of social media so it doesn’t bother me. My animals are always doing something that makes me laugh or just question whether or not they hate/love me. I’m always busy so I’m never bored.

Try to be in the moment and when you notice the same people just share some kindness by looking at them, waving or smiling, it is not even necessary to say anything, but eventually you will get into talking with them :)

I think everyone is socially awkward from time to time and to varying degrees. People define social awkwardness differently. I believe it boils down to wanting other ‘s approval and conforming to the group instead of being one’s true self. Sacrificing who you are is never worth it. Don’t let others dictate that for you.

I cried because that is so true. Because I felt like I was an outsider.

Yes! More people need to start talking about meaningful things! That's why so many people (including myself) are socially awkward. Most of society only likes to talk about silly things that don't matter in life. "aka: no one wants to expand their minds in conversation".

Being too caring about other’s is what can make you have a awkward situation.

I'm socially awkward with people i know more than strangers. I really hate it when our family gathers ang my cousins are so closr and I'm there hiding or in the corner

Struggling with a lot of odds including awkwardness makes the most unique person.

Many people who think they´re awkward are actually really interesting, don´t care too much about what other people think as long as you´re a true and honest heart

Almost cried watching this towards the end. I felt so understood. ❤

If there is a gathering of people who consider themselves as "socially akward" somewhere, would they still feel they have this "condition"? If only one person who considers him/herself as "socially non awkward" joins this meeting, How would he/she feels in that place?

@isabellaflorea6909

2 жыл бұрын

I think this is such a good question. I believe that the group of people who identify themselves as socially akward will feel at ease and ''accepted'' so they will be more relaxed and talk about their life and struggless more. and the one person that isnt socially akward will feel ''normal,relaxed''as usual but maybe wont be able to join the convo cuz its not going to be so much relatable to him/her. What do you think?

I even don't know what to talk and how to talk in social situations. I always try to avoid a social gathering, where people meet just to say Hi, to one another. But I can give a lecture passionately on a topic I like to talk about for hours and hours.

The awkward moments I’ve created sometimes jolt me awake from my sleep. I wish I could forgive myself. I hope that one day the people I’ve accidentally made to feel uncomfortable will realize that I didn’t mean to- I was just so afraid of talking to them that in that very moment I wanted to crawl into a hole, and that feeling didn’t manifest itself very well. Im sorry.

I'm only awkward around girl's I like or find attractive. They could say hi and I just give them a blank stare and do kind of a half wave rather than just say hi back...

I was walking my dog and it ran up to a dad and her daughter and sniffed their legs, i said "you must smell nice, what did you eat for lunch". I still cringe when i think about it (:

I deal with it by clowning and being silly, like Robin Williams used to, until he couldn't do it anymore.

No. It's not awesome. At all. But I will watch the video now...

The friends I have, I made when I was in college. Now I am in a different country, new city and I do not have friends. My way to try to approach this was using the internet: - Subscribed a photography local group since its my hobby, paid the fee...and never even put one step on the gathering place. - Subscribed an online service for local gatherings where you could find friends with similar interests... never went to any of the gatherings or made contact with anybody Truth is, I am scared of social interactions, I do not know how to keep a conversation going specially with strangers or people I just met, and I feel like every time I talk I just get people bored or say something weird.

Feel very socialy akward in 99% in all situations when there is people I dont know, particarlly in bigger groups. I become quite and feel like I have to say something to not be quite all the time and I just dont come into the discussion smooth och correctly. And I feel I just want to go home. With friend it’s better but can still be a struggle from time to time. Feel like you just dont want to interact because I feel like I ruin the dynamic in the communication.

Great talk !!!

I was consolidated by his story. I am in high school and I guess I walk my own path, but I don't regret doing what I know is right.

First impressions of my social awkwardness has lead me to barely meeting new people

I’m the type of kid, right now even, that’s subscribed to 3 Ted Talk channels, sometimes gloats about it, and loves physiological stuff like this! While my friends are watching Markiplier or listening to Fall Out Boy. They are a different kind of socially awkward but I love them for it. In a way, they are sort of like my very own science experiments. I’d never tell them that. But I say this because I’ve got a few more years to go until my graduation and they are setting the standard of people I want to hang out with. They are loyal to a fault. Protective to a fault, this one especially. Caring. Understanding. Love to laugh. Also, have much depth beneath the surface. With many areas I’m still learning from my experiment. Something I’ve grown to believe in is that there is never too much kindness. I’ve grown to believe in giving back tenfold of what someone gives me. My friends will say I’m amazing and later on I will carry their book bag up a hill for them, when we go to the library after school together. Again, something out of the ordinary. But they don’t and sometimes even I don’t realize is that I’m trying to give back something unmeasurable. Laughter. Happiness. Gratitude, above all. Gratitude for every happy moment they have brought upon me and each other. I love seeing them getting along and being happy. It is one of my prize possession moments that I actually get to see quite often. It’s like a dance performance. Very different people doing very different thing to make something beautiful to watch. I’m sort of an observer. I outcast myself because I usually don’t know how to act. I’m a little like Bruce Banner with them. When other people say, we have blah blah blah on our side they would probably be like well we have [my name] on our side. If I ever do show this to my friend(s) then I’m sorry I wrote you down as an experiment and thank you for building a strong relationship with me or else I wouldn’t be showing it to you. To anyone else reading....... I hope it was at least a little entertaining to read my ranting about my life!

I think some people have this misconception of social awkwardness being a bad thing particularly if one is confident in his or her own skin. Never be sorry or ashamed for simply being yourself. We all have are own thoughts, opinions and perspective of the world around us. I've never been a group oriented person, I feel comfortable having one on one conversations it gives me a chance to get to know him or her as an individual and they would get to know me as well. I'm half introvert and extrovert, I like hanging with people and having fun and I enjoy time by myself to study, observe and be a spectator of human behavior and form my own thoughts and opinions. One of my favorite animals is the bald eagle simply because its a wise and solitary creature.

You social potential is in your birthchart if you study it, Astrology is what I'm passionate about. I find that finding was to make it relatable helps me to express that instead of only talking about things that dont interest me. If im unable to build on spritual, metaphysical things with folks then I say what I can and make social interactions brief cause I cant dive deep in my interest with everyone so it is what it is. Educating myself on smaller details of life helps and making an effort to speak first helps cause people feel that you are awkard before you even speak, Im not determined to prove them wrong, just determined to express myself the best way I can in the moment and to keep at it

Good speech but I feel like he described what a geek is not what awkwardness comes from. Not only geeks can be socially awkward. I mean it might be related in a way like if you have interests that are considered 'uncool' while growing up I suppose that can kind of make you socially awkward as people don't get it or don't get you. But I still don't buy into the socially awkward = geek angle he approached here. I think being socially awkward is connected more to your personality and anxiety than your interests.
