So-Awkward 🙈

One day you will grow weary of wishing you weren't shy. And on that day, you will decide to take a baby step towards change. I know...because I did.

The key to being a good conversationalist is to be a good listener, then ask questions about what was said👂

@MelDMann To a 10 year old, yes. To a 60 year old, no

Amazing quote. Exactly what I did in my early 20s actually when I just moved to a different city for school and had no friends because I was socially awkward and super introvert. Well I still am in a way.

Conversation awkwardly lagging? A single word response kills a conversation You’ve got to ask questions to keep it going. “Seen a good movie lately?” “Whadya do last weekend?”

COVID: this year’s built-in excuse for skipping a party!

@starbucks app is down so now my socially awkward ass had to stumble over my words while in the drive thru trying to remember how I like my coffee all because i had to memorize my order since I pay for my stuff using the #StarbucksApp

To keep a conversation going, we must participate. Try the QLCR method:
Question❓
Listen👂
Comment 👄
Repeat ♻️
Otherwise the conversation dies quickly.

When they tell you you’re going back to the office after working from home for 3 months

In convo and at a loss on what to say? People love talking about their kids and their dogs. So ask about them and they will likely not stop talking. Here’s mine in case you asked 🤣 #growingupshy

As a socially awkward person, it’s pretty easy to blend in right now bc NOBODY is with their friends. 🤣👊 #growingupshy

Is socially awkward even a thing right now? Because I haven’t seen anyone other than the grocery delivery guy for 2 weeks! #growingupshy

[So-Awkward 🙈 @SoAwkwardJournl]

Social distancing...ah, the world is right again. #growingupshy

“Hello Old Friend!” A trick I learned in a seminar years ago is to act like everyone you meet is an old friend. No, you don’t have to hug them all, but instead of our typical eyes down timid greeting, greet them as if you’re super happy to see them. #growingupshy

Making friends can be challenging. Get yourself out there doing things that interest you. Like to cook? 🍰Go to a cooking class. Like old cars? 🚙 Go to a car show. Conversations come easily with people who have common interests.
