[quote=Anonymous]I went to a school charity event last night. I went to support my kid's school, but the entire thing just filled me with dread -- the small talk, the mingling, the being "on" and trying to think of something to say. I went with my neighbor (kids in the same grade), and I watched her move around the room so effortlessly, hugging people, chatting, just ... being able to say stuff? Is this a skill that can be developed? Is it genetic? I found it so tough and draining. I mainly talked to one other friend from my child's class, but I'd really love to branch out and talk to more people and make more connections, but I don't even know where to begin. Is it confidence? Stamina? I just don't even know. Help?[/quote]
