...well maybe not tee hee. Anyway this is sorta weird rant.

I have concluded something about myself. I have absolutely no social skills whatsoever. Why?

Well...
1. I have an odd stutter, like i cannot think of what to say.
2. My english sometimes sounds totally stupid. With my voice also it get slurred to sound even worse.

Its come to points where i can't even understand what i am saying sometimes, this really detours me from speaking to people. Maybe also the small factor i am so "Sheltered" i dont really know much of anything thats hip. Don't ask me about your Usher, or your Avril or whatever i dont know em.

What the fuck's your point?!
My lacking of speaking to others has made me "Antisocial." What i don't get is would you rather try to deal with someone who cannot really speak well at'al or not even deal with it?

I mean i get annoyed when someone speaks to me and i cannot understand, though thats just me. Does having bad speaking skills really make you antisocial person now?

For the record, i gotten better at "talking" with speeches and crap. I think most importantly i need antishy lessons. e.e

Well, if you dont want to be lonely, then I advise you in investing some time and effort into learning better social skills.

Myself do not care for the moment, and tend to intimidate people with often ominous looks.

Me being speeching impedimented doesnt really mean much, but does it mean that if anyone did have such a problem that their cases for not talking makes them antisocial?

And yeah, i get shit about being creepy too. "Gahh the evil eyes!! and the brows" all that good stuff. :o

I kinda know what you are saying Tingle.
I tend to mumble and slur a lot. And sometimes it takes me more than a second to realize what others are trying to say,.. ya. So my point kinda is. Hm. ...

I don't know what my point is. I think it got lost somewhere. I will think about it some more and elaborate later.

What i was trying to say is that the fact i like you have these problems it makes me become antisocial. Which i do not understand.

It isn't that hard to understand. See, we work on feedbacks. I talk to you stuttering, you didn't think it was cool. So you give me some sort of negative feedback. Be it verbal or gesture. So I realize you didn't appreciate what I said. I might form the conclusion of you don't like me and then I sulk and go away.

If this happen enough then you will start to fear the rejection of everybody and then maybe fear social situations and hence go anti-social.

Yepp.

Well. I dunno you IRL.
I don't think you are antisocial.
But it could be people scaring you with their antisocial comments. http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_eek.gif

I fumble and stutter with words at work. Quite annoying to me when I'm trying to talk to someone, but it happens so oh well. I rush when I talk, so thats the problem. Could be the same with you, you just rush abit, or you're thinking further than you're talking and poof, slurred speech and fumbled words.

I guess it depends on how well you know whatever person or what kind of a situation you're in... In social situations, I can be talkative like there is no tomorrow.

But go figure why, I couldn't order a dish at the restaurant even if my life depended on it. I'll stumble like mad, forget something I wanted to order, or suddenly order something else altogether and wonder why the hell I said that. o_O;

Exactly why I order Chicken Fingers every restaurant I go to!=D

Here's an example of how I am: Back at my old school, I knew everybody, so I talked all the god damn time. I also got mediocre B and C grades because of all the goofing around I did in class and stuff. Here at my new school, I only talk to about 4 people, and sleep the whole damn day through my classes, and I get As. I FUCKING SLEEP AND I GET As. Great...but yea, I only talk to people I know well. I don't know how people can walk up to a stranger and have a conversation like people do with me.-_-;

Teachers dont like kids that have freinds cuz they know they are going to be an asshole child throughout the year (english teacher stated if she doesnt like somoene she'll grade it down right away even if its good....thats why we dont put headings on essays anymore^^)

I can do it becuse I'm not shy and generally freindly, I guess you just have to be sure with your with your self about how you are and not thinking that you'll freak people out if you talk to them.

I talk fast and get ahead of myself a lot. So often times people have no idea what the fuck I'm talking about.

My problem is that I've been living in the south long enough that despite my efforts to avoid picking up an accent, my speech has become more like a slurred southern drawl. And it sucks. So I try harder to enunciate. Hopefully I'll still be able to speak english when I leave for college.
