On the few occasions which i do go hang out. Especially when its with people i'm not as familiar with, I can muster the enthusiasm to be somewhat social in the beginning. But after an hour or two i always hit this wall. Where I just think "gah, i'm tired, i don't want to talk, don't want to smile, dang the ground looks interesting, maybe ill study that for the rest of the day."
I hit that too. I suddenly realise that peoples interest has shifted away from me after an hour or so and it has shifted on to someone or something else and i can never regain their attention. This then sucks my enthusiasm away and i feel like a tag along. Then its just like 'i wanna go home!'.
Yeh... after the initial 20 questions, where are you from, what do you do, blah blah blah. I just completely run out of things to say, and the dreaded awkward silence ensues.

ya, I really struggle to hold a conversation. I can't think of anything useful to say and I want to get the hell out of there before they think im an idiot. I can't even get myself to ask the initial 20 questions outside the internet =(
