Social Anxiety? I just cannot click with
-
my hubby's friends' wives/gfs. Maybe I am shy or something else. Just like recently, I went to a baby shower of my hubby's friend. All the wives and gfs were there chatting happily. A few of the girls cluster together to chit chat but I always feel they have clicks and that I should sit away from them as I have nothing to chat with them and they also don't seem to be interested to chat with me. Later, my hubby came to me ask me why I sat alone, like that very pai sey one leh. Frankly, I don't like the feeling of being outcast but I am really a quiet person, just don't know why people expect me to speak up first when they just smile at me and that is it, nothing more. And when one of those girls talk to me, they are like being obliged to talk to me. Sigh .. Maybe I should just give up attending events.

To break the ice, do gangnam style on the coffee table.
Confirm everybody will talk about you
-
talk about you =/= talk with you
-
They will need to talk to you also.
Like "Please get off my coffee table"
Or "Can you put your clothes back on?"
-
gangnam style where got take off clothes?
-
I face the same problem too. I'll just smile, stay for awhile then find a excuse to leave early.

When you do parody, anything goes.
Even orange juice with milk.

Honestly, apart from my clients and obviously my bosses, I seem to be retreating to a similar position myself. Not that I am shy or an introvert (never was by nature), but its coming to a point in my life I am feeling anything that is about to come out of this person's mouth, I have heard it somewhere before sometime ago from another person' mouth and its pretty much the same boring crap I have to sit through. Furthermore, most aren't sincere (forgive me if this appears ironic since I am only as sincere as to my clients and bosses as the amounts they pay me) when they speak that I find what they have to say is anything but shallow. Similarly...........unless its a seminar...........I avoid social gatherings. I prefer PS4.
