my social skills are nonexistent. pissing and scaring people off by simply sitting in a corner, staring into space IS MY TALENT.for the few who are brave enough to attempt to have talk with me, the usual transcript of the conversation would go like this:
her/him: hi
me: there are 7 billion people in the world. why don't you try talking with the other 6,999,999,999?
but that's just when i feel like talking. usually, i just go on looking bored as if i heard nothing. you can't blame me - they say "bored" is my best look.
however, there are those people whom i feel a special connection with. those who, from the very first time we've met, make my eyes sweet as a puppy's and make me go--- "DUDE, YOU'RE CRAZY. I LIKE YAH!". although, i'm not quite sure if they are aware of my feelings. what is wrong with you people? why do you not share my culture wherein a slap could pass for a gesture of endearment and a verbal assault is a constant reminder of how much i care??
anyways, we've just celebrated the holiday seasons and the only things i miss more than those people are their gifts.
what i'm trying to say is, there are some people plagued by the inability of showing affection but we do care. and although we are unbelievably capable of living in our own universe, the laughs and the tears that we shared matters. so go ahead, call that one person who is in your head right now. that one person that this article reminds you of. :]

You know I'd call them, but this reminds me of me in real life social situations. I just don't care for people that much especially when some others just come up and talk about the most idiotic things anyone has ever heard. I have tried to be more social but I am not. I prefer to talk with people when I need to talk with them and not before or after. I have a few friends who know I care and I just let them talk but they know I am listening even if I have a bored look on my face.

So are you happy being like that? 
No man is an island , as the saying goes. You can be happy in solitude for an hour or two but not in many days. You will soon would like to talk to someone and hear some stories about them or interests that are common to you.
So my friend, trying beating that habit. It will consume you and would eventually make you lonely.

Sounds like you're the life of the party. You sounds like you have a very egocentric view of yourself. We need to all get along in this world, and I would suggst you try a new approach where people don't have to be brave to want to come and talk to you.
