Am I ever going to learn how to socially interact with people?

like I cannot find the line of when I am being too forward or too socially awkward, how am I supposed to learn this?

"You" are not, its just a sad fact of life. Someone has to be the lowest common denominator and in this cycle it just happens to be you.
Tough luck

Im a bitch online, yet very dosile IRL. After I get to know I person I decide whether I like them or not and that pending I am able to get along with them fine.

Maybe you have a hard time judging people.

man what is it tonight with the teen angst threads?

anyway to respond to the OP: as others have said, the best thing to do is to fake like you're having a good time and then people will like you, so eventually you won't need to fake it anymore and you'll actually be having a good time and people will still like you. disclaimer: I am a teen and I've never used the above method very successfully because faking that sort of thing for too long makes me to depressed and tired so I usually stop before I make any significant progress. HOWEVER, I am sure that it works, I know that it works from the short times I've tried it

Nopes, you will always be the creepy guy in the parka.

Edit: Heh.. I am probably like you too

be as self centered as possible for a few months and abuse yourself in healthy ways, like public humiliation.

Just become smart and all the pretty girls will come to use you.

Stop worrying about it so much and just be a jerk to people. Say what you feel when you feel it and stop being soo nervous. Don't worry about what people may say about you.

Best advice so far. Joining the military comes in a close second but requires a contract. A good way would be to get a second job at a bar or a restaruant where you have to interact and there are great parties after work.

That is kinda how I learned too. I worked at an internship, and there was too much fun to be had to stick to being socially inept.

Don't worry, its your life, you don't have to be sweet to people. Just accept the person you are and be happy.

never post any questions, ever, about anything?

instead just repeatedly hastling friends and people I know, about these things, until they are sick of me? you call that a good answer instead?

Hey, if it keeps you from posting threads like this, I'd call it a good answer too!

 

[boomdart]

After studying others' conversations (lack of anything better to do in high school), it appears that Repitition, laughter at NOTHING, and talk that has no basis of meaning at all is what will get you a new friend.

Now, if you're wanting to get laid...that's a little different. I take the blunt-as-**** approach, which works for me. So I can't really help any other way, as I hate romancing and saying "i love you" to get....you know what? I'm talking too much...time to click the post button...
