Are you good at socializing?

I am not that good in socializing. Its not that I find myself out of place. I am just not good at it. If I am going to attend any gathering I would make sure that I am with my close friends or close family members. So that at least I have someone to talk to. I am low profile person, I dont know how to mingle with others if I dont know them. I even dont know how to start a conversation. I am shy when it comes to that one.

i am fortunate that i am good at talking to people (even strangers. i guess this is because i am an only child.

I think that I am good at socializing. I go to a group for moms that live in my area. I met up with a small group of them at a new children's soft play center. In the past we gave had a picnic in the park and gone to an animal center. I have a disabled toddler son and a baby daughter. I have made many friends at my son's playgroup for disabled children. I am very keen on traveling to different countries. I like to get chatting to the local people and the other travelers. I am a friendly person and I tend to get on well with other people. My sister is a lovely person although she is very shy. She finds it more difficult to socialize. I have invited her along to the group for moms in my area. I will keep hoping that she will come along to one of the meet ups. I know my niece would get on well with one of the little girls. Her mom organizes the group and its website.

Ah. I think I suck at socializing. LOL. I don't like going to places with a lot of people. I would rather stay home alone just minding my own business. And I'm not good at conversations, most of the time I don't know what to say, and I hate all those awkward pauses where you both don't have anything more to say, and you don't know how to end the conversation. Hehehe.

I think I'm good at socializing. It's inherent and works very well with my line of work (sales and after sales business). It makes me more effective in closing deals and for after sales, it makes it easier for me to appease irate clients. You don't necessarily have to be the life of the party or the center of attention in the group. Just knowing how to deal with different kinds of people on different occasions is enough for you to be able to fit yourself in. There are occasions I attend just for the sake of giving some time to friends. I can just sit there and eat or drink, smile or laugh with them but not start a topic. Sometimes mere presence is enough especially if they know you are a bit tired so you are giving the floor to them. The more you isolate yourself, the more you create a barrier between you and the other people. You can join occasions where you are invited. You don't have to force yourself to act like they do. You can be yourself and they will still accept you. How will you know if you don't try first? "No man is an island", they say. For me, this is true. The bigger your circle of friends, the happier life seems to be. :)

hey... very intresting discussion topic dear! well i think socializing is a two way process so not juz u need to show confidence wen u go 2 new places n meet new people bt its also their responsibility that dey welcome you by showing confidence in you...so its as easy as a handshake...keep this attitude n u'll certainly feel d difference! tc

I am not at all good at socializing. I am a shy kind of a person and I am also not good in internet socializing. But I like attending to a gathering organized by any of my family members,relatives or closed friends,where I can come across many people who are very well known to me.I prefer keeping a low profile. Being social and adaptable to any kind of atmosphere is certainly a positive feature.It makes one more accessible and important among others.

I am also not good in socializing though I always want to attend parties. But it sometimes ended going home early and I dont even talk to other visitors except to my companion and to the celebrant. I am also the type of person who is not friendly and cannot smile back to a stranger who smiled at me. Yes i am a very shy type of person with a very poor personality, that's why until now, I dont have a lot of friends.

For me I'm not too good about that occasion but when I have time to go there I'm happy to the accompanied with.

Yeah,As far as I am concerned, I think I am a man who usually have a socializing with others,which can help me a lot in th efuture life. If there is someone who does not want to have a socializing, I think it will be so difficult for him to struggle to stand on the society.

I am both good and bad. I work as a nurse and I can go in and talk endlessly to patients I have only just met about anything and everything. I'm really outgoing and talkative. However, outside work, I am extremely shy and struggle to talk to people I don't know (unless I've been drinking of course!!!). When I used to go out somewhere with a friend and I didn't know anyone else there, I used to sit in the corner and say nothing. I worked hard to improve this side of myself in college and I got better but I am now back to how I was before. Being shy is definitely a disadvantage as it means I am reluctant to go out and meet people and so tend to isolate myself from the world x

Nah, well I am good when I am faking it when meeting strangers, by who doesn't fake it? I guess I am okay with serious subjects rather than talking about everyday nonsense with some half-wits or such. I am generally nice and a good listener, as well as a speaker and I guess I would have no problems to socialize. Lately, I am just too busy to socialize, however I am gonna make up for it in the summer...

well im good at it well i made new friends online but not bf and gf relationship i don't do for me it's fun to meet somebody online.

Depends on what people are talking about. If a group is talking about something I might have a slight knowledge about, I will jump in. Although I usually prefer to interact with my friends in real life. I would say I am decent at socializing.

I have lots of skill and socializing definitely isn't one of them. I mean I don't like to go to parties especially if the event isn't really that important. If it's like a wedding or a birthday then fine but I'd usually sit by those who I already know and just eat or drink away. If they introduce me to someone then that's fine but to initiate a conversation with someone new, I really am not up to it. Even at work. I don't try to meet new people. If we cross paths because of something then fine. I don't easily make friends or know new people but of course there are some who can really be good friends but its bothersome for me. Hmm... come to think of it. I may be good at it but I just don't want to.

I'm normally quiet and standoffish around large crowds, and sometimes small ones. Haha, I've never really been good at keeping conversations going or even finding something that everyone in the discussion would find interesting. I've really pushed myself in the last couple of years to be more active in the community and try interacting with people more often. It's something I've never been comfortable with, but I'm trying to get better at it!!

Hi tutul, I am very bad in this sense. To be frank ,my sense is not working in this regards. Many times i try to be well socialize but i cannot concentrate more on that.I dont like to go to social function because of psychological reason. I feel stressed in that type of gathering when know people are less.but social gathering of my own relation then i love to attend it. But accroding to me socializing is very good.it is helpful,many of our work can be accomplished by personal relation.Because i avoid socializing,i have to suffer a lot. With Regards Ranvir Chauhan
