How do you deal with social situations where you don't know a lot of peolple?

.

Honestly in social situations I just don't know what to say. I hate that I don't want to say anything and every one wants you to start talking with them. being alone is so much easier, or with no more than 2 other ppl.

I quietly freak out in my own head while appearing calm

Mostly I just sit there and observe people, interact with one or two at a time. I don't enjoy being in large groups of people and never have, part of the problem is that I'm tone-deaf and too many people talking at once along with background music or noises makes it hard for me to understand what someone is saying...which is just awkward.

Assert dominance right away. Go in and start shit with the biggest dude there so that the rest of them know you don't play. Oh wait, that's prison. I think it's pretty much universal though.

mmm. i'm one of those unfortunate people, for some unknown reason, people come up and talk to..

Tbh I'd rather not deal with social situations at all

you are cool miss it is okay if your a little bitchy at times we all are

I'm very silent and very terrified.
