So I'm new here and this is the only thing I found in the self improvement section unless there's another reddit for that I guess.. But to my point. I consider my self a great speaker, all my confidence comes in when I'm giving a speech. It's easy, no pressure and I know what I'm talking about and the direction it's gonna go and even if its a group project for my college everything tends to go smoothly. Conversations? Nope, boring, bland. I get so bored by people like I wouldn't believe. I do the whole what's your major, why and how do you feel avout it to get to something but people just half ass every answer, and I don't blame them. Maybe talking isn't their forte either but I find this problem when I try to pick up. I have little to no AA, I'm pretty confident in my speaker ability even though I'm not that attractive but my attention span is so low I just can't keep a conversation. What's your trick? I'm tired of faking interest because people don't even talk about mudane crap like celebrities and movies it's all just "yeah" "uhuh" or a short lifeless answer. Usually I just call "NEXT" but I notice this happens to a MAJORITY of people I talk to. Am I cursed or something? P.S. sorry if this comes off as some rant. Anyone know other self improvement reddits I could join? I'm new to this whole thing and my knowledge of reddit is fedora clad "gentlesirs" that roam the internet :|
