Welcome to our standard issue support group meetings! On this episode of the SRCH, the team talk about being socially inept!

Honestly though, it's pretty whatever. I've got Aspergers myself so I get the whole deal about not relating to people very well, I'd much prefer hanging out online than being out in the world interacting physically with people I'd rather not associate myself with. I don't understand the appeal of a lot of things the masses do, and I feel rather numb to a lot of things that bother most 'normal' people. **** is not one of them, admittedly. I honestly can't even handle the hint of such abuse in some kind of media without getting ridiculously furious.

Light jest about it, in close circles of friends, is cool in my books. Nothing should be off-limits to a bit of comedy. (Albeit making light of such a thing in the company of someone with experience in the regard... Yeah, that's just in poor taste.)

But anyway, I'm just throwing some comments out there. I am Inferi.

I just don't like people.

EDIT: If you still can't think of a post I'll edit mine to make it easier for you, Annie. I suppose I'll also post for Emo, if I'm up for it. Ramsay Bolton is the king we deserve.

I just don't interact well. I would much rather sit back and let others do the talking while I just listen, because you honestly learn more that way. That's how I grew up, just listening to everyone else. I've gotten better with small talk with strangers since I work in food service, but usually my friends are the only people that I talk to on a regular basis. So I just don't talk to unfamiliar people, pretty much. Meh.

I used to be really, really socially inept, actually. Pretty much everyone I knew was online, because it was the only way I could really interact with people and be myself. But, believe it or not, when I got my first real, proper job, it changed a lot of that. I started working at Wal-Mart and got shoved out of my comfort-zone, big-time. I worked in a very team-oriented, communication-based area of the store, and I often had to help customers as well. That really broke off all of my social ineptitude, and now I can pretty much carry a conversation with anybody. Mind you, I'm borderline, schizotypal and manic depressive, so it still gets difficult at times.

You're in good company, is all I'm saying, Emo. I'd venture that a fairly good proportion of us here have had some sort of social problems, or still have them. We've all got our own burdens to bear and we all work through them, one way or another.
