Are you Actually socially awkward?

Yup, pretty badly at this point.

Turns out 12 years of on and off isolation does bad things to one's social skills. 🤔

I’m socially something

I can be, but mostly I’m just awesome. 😉

I think a lot of social protocols are silly and pretentious and it makes me cringe. That makes me awkward. It's not the lack of confidence.

I really am

I’m essentially a hermit haha

I think we all feel that way at times. And at times we feel more confident. Personally I’m too silly for people, it’s funny, but I would get in trouble at work and school. But I get what you’re saying, it’s becoming another mask to wear. Another facade to not get to know each other.

I think socially lazy would be a better term.

I am fully capable of being extremely sociable, I even use to get paid to, but I don't like it and only do so if there is something in it for me.

I'd much rather be alone or in small groups.

The only time i can truly enjoy a social setting is if I am drunk.

I'm fine if i know somebody there or if I feel comfortable with the topic of the day. If I know nobody or if I'm totally ignorant of what is going on, I feel awkward and have to just suck it up and dive in like I know what I'm doing.

I can do an excellent version of “outgoing” for a brief spell, but trying to get me past two sentences of idle chitchat you’re going to wonder what happened. Poor social endurance. 😅

Not socially awkward but don't like being the center of attention. I like being a fly on the wall and observing people first before interacting with them 😏.

I'm fine till my batteries run out then I just wanna go hooooome 😩

Yes I am
Hence why I have few true friends but lots of acquaintances

Only around people and it seems like there a lot of people out there.

I am socially awkward, but I'm good at faking it^^

To an extent

😳 Geeze !

No

Are you kidding? I was socially awkward before it was cool.

internally yes. externally i can fake it for a bit.

I think I can read a situation if I have to. But its forced and I hate it. Id much rather not have to talk.

Only with strangers 🤪

Very

I used to be, but now I am good at faking it 😌

Yes

Somewhat. It's part of my charm.
That said, I'm introverted, but no against hanging out with people. I just don't like being the centre of attention.

I am fine when I am around people and have no issue talking to new people.

I would rather be home though.
