Hello MyLotters! Are you an outgoing person, always happy and you shine with positive energy, or are you a person that is closed to yourself and you avoid talking with strangers, sometimes even people who you know? I know a friend who is just madly outgoing and communicative, whenever she goes out she makes at least a few friends, total strangers, she just has that catch for starting a conversation with someone and people really like her personality, so she doesn't have problems blending in with the crowd. Are you the same kind of person? Is it for you a problem to go out and to meet new people, to actually start a conversation with someone? How do you do it? What is your funniest/most exciting/most valuable story? Share with us and tell your stories. Happy MyLotting! :)

I'm really glad for you, not a lot of people have this type of "courage" to approach other people first and start a conversation. It's nice to see there are sociable people in the world and I hope one day I will be much more sociable than I am today.

For me, it's hard to become an outgoing person. I am a shy type of person before, that was when I was still in high school. Now, I'm trying to change these things. I'm trying to be friendly. I really like make friends with others and I think I'm sort of outgoing person a little bit. But I don't know. Maybe I'm the only one who can say that I'm a friendly person. Have a nice day mylotting.

It's nice seeing that people here really are trying to change. It's important that you want to change, then you automatically become a better person. I wish you all the luck and to become more friendly and more outgoing :)

im not a very talkative person. I dont approach whoever i like and get to know them. I rarely say hi or hello to anybody before them. im more like laid-back and reserved kind. I smile and i say hi when they do it first and i answer questions that i feel like answering. I respond nicely. Im just not the miss congeniality type..

It's ok, you don't have to run around greeting everybody, sometimes I don't say hello to my neighbours too, I'm just not in the mood everytime. I usually say hi first, but if they don't answer to me or something, I just don't say hi to them anymore.

It is easy for me to make friends, but not easy to maintain friendships b/c I spend all of my time being a momma, and other time working. I have been letting my friends know tht I care and will be spending more time with them. They are very understanding. :)

Hi menzis, I do consider my self to be a very outgoind person and able to meet people very easily..I have been told that I have an Ora tha surrounds me and people that I don't even know have been attracted to me and Have told me things that they say they have never told their family... Once at a house party I was sitting on the sofa for well over 2 hours listening to this lady who was telling me a story that was bothering her and she had never confided in her family... I am a very opinionated person but I am a better listners and thats not easy to find...I love meeting people and I don't judge people. Opinionated but not judgemental.....

Hi! It's great when you just radiate with this kind of positive energy that makes people recognize that you're a good person. I'm also a kind of a good listener, I love when people come to me and tell me their problems, when they share their problems with me, especially when I can give them some advice and help them, make them feel better. A lot of people have problems they never shared with anyone, and if they share them with me, it really means a lot to me.

I am a moody person, sometimes I could be so outgoing and communicative person but sometimes I am so closed and don't want to talked with those stranger. Whenever I am on new place and I think that those person are good person I'll talk to them and blend with them. But if I don;t have good mood, feel so tired or has so many things on my mind, I'll keep silent and don't want to talked with them, especially a guy. I dislike to know new guy, I tend to talk with girl, it makes me feel safer since I've broken up with my ex. Talking with a new person can be started by talking about common case such as weather, hobby or popular topic talked by people

Hello menzis I think I am fairly communicative. I have worked on this skill on the last years and I think I am rather average at the speed of making new friends. While I don't have anything towards new friends, I think I should learn more before involving myself because I have learnt that it's not always good to throw your head in front before investigating a little :).
