Hi All,
Through out my life i have always been very bad at socialising. I always seem to say the wrong thing, I dont really know the do's and dont of good conversation and small talk is like rocket science to me. However i do not belive that it is impossible to learn social skills, i believe that like any other skill i have aquired in my life these skills can be learn't, even if it is hard to do because of the years of doing things wrong. There is a problem tho, unlike learning to program, dance or balance a spoon on your nose there is no manual or teacher that i can easily learn these skills from ( ok, there may not be many teachers for learning to balance spoons on your nose ethier but you get my point lol).
So, at the moment i am trying to devise and list of things i can do to try and improve my social skills. Here of some of the things i am trying so far:
- Joining Forums and Community's on the Internet (like this one 8))
- Trial and Error ( sometimes very painful but very effective )
- Improving my range of Interests
Does anyone have any others ideas that they are trying at the moment?
Also, if anyone knows a good website for learning to balance spoons on your nose i would greatly appreciate it ... j/k
