I'm going to school again... (Classes start at June 10, 2017 GMT +8:00)

Does anyone have any tips for socializing in real life?

I'm a really shy person in real life, but I'm skilled in more ways than one...

Ask questions and listen, learn about people. You will feel more relaxed around people and then the conversation will flow naturally. Protip, don't talk about yourself too much too.

Read a book called How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. It'll be worth it.

I prefer to be snarky, helpful and energetic. Works quite well at my current workplace.

1. Know yourself. When you know yourself better, you'll know what kind of person you could relate to. I use MBTI and Ennegram test to discover my preferences.

"Hey I like this thing."
"Hey, me too!"

Bam, instant friends.

2. There will always be a person like you. It could be a guy, it could be a girl, it could be your teacher... Who knows? Stay open-minded.

3. A shy person huh...

You could always try automated response like a robot. Practice first, until you get comfortable with expressing yourself.

That's true. This attitute is very good in groupwork, and it's the attitute that principles wants for their students, especially in engineering schools where we are expected to be more people-focused than self-centered.

I have a several friends like that, attention seekers. Needless to say, I don't want to meet anyone of them most of the time.

Note: I'm a Schizoid person, and I prefer to invest my time into doing the things I like rather than focusing on the people around me. Such as modding, watching videos and playing vidyas, to get my inner world well regulated. Smile

Well, you can be as shy as possible, but once you just ztype up your fear, stand up and do that, what you was scared to do, and when you succeed, everything became much easier.

First thing to do is you must have a strong will to change, what do I mean is a will to socializing with others.

Then introduce yourself, joining conversations that you understand (like same interest, or discussing hot news/study), then try to hangout with them or joining an organization/groups. Sure after you did those, you may developing on socializing.

Two things, never be disappointing and befriend with good guys.
