Why do people suck so much?

I hate it,
I'm at college, and I'm just trying to do my best to be the fairest to myself and make myself be as social as possible, and all its doing is scaring people off,

why the hell do people get scarred off when you come accross as being just a little bit socially out of the norm?

I mean so what, i try hard! I have to or else I'll end up being too shy (which is my nature) and then I'll be kicking
myself for not talking enough to people.

either way its a lose lose situation, it always seems like I either try too hard, or I dont try hard enough.
 
example:

i talk to people, make little side comments, and it comes out like I'm a fake, but dangit i'm just trying to be social!

ppl r different... some ppl will have no probs with that kinda chatter, while others will shy away from it. u just gotta find the right group of ppl to chill with.
 
frick,

i cant be myself, because being myself would mean being a shy kid that never has a life or talks to anyone, so then when I try to not be myself, sure i end up talking to people but make myself look like a loser instead.

so it's either shy person - who never talks, or loser - who never has anything good to say.

what do you mean by side comments? like talk behind their back or something?
 
no, not talking behind there back,

like stuff like "oh well yea.. bla bla bla bla bla" or
"dont you guys think this is fun?"

or just little stupid comments that arent funny at all and make people look down on me.


the part I hate the worst is when I ask them what their name is, and they tell me like they dont care that im asking, and they dont even ask for mine back. stupid pricks
 
i get the feeling that you're like that guy on the budweiser commericial......

maybe your comments don't have the best timing.

Sometimes its just better to chill out and not talk to people. Conversation is not necessary in all aspects of life.

What it really sounds like to me is that you don't believe what your saying even though you're forcing yourself to say stuff. So just shut up 😛
 
Fvck them
Be yourself. I'm sure you'll find someone or some people who are more like you and accept you for who you are. I'm kind of the same way actually but I ain't gonna hang out with d1ckheads just to say I have friends. Real friends wouldn't care about your comments, which in reality probably aren't as dumb as you think they are.

yeah, i get a bit annoyed when people talk too much, introduce yourself, maybe chat after class, but don't be too push about making a relationship happen
 
Sounds like you need to calm down around people. I am sure you can reign in your "out of the norm" behavior a bit. Pay attention to how others behave in groups.

I have a college friend, Dean, who had a similar problem. When he got into social situations like a party he would start doing and saying "out of the norm" things. People called him Crazy Dean.
 
I think the more common definition is someone who isn't socially adjusted. Someone who gets used a lot for things. An example is using you for a ride or stealing your lunch money or using you for your homework and to copy from on exams. etc.
 
calm down. I'm a rather shy person myself, but just be yourself while opening up a little. Decent people will in turn talk to you, the jerks won't. c'est la vie.
