[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not meant to be mean, but are the posters who ask these kinds of questions usually socially awkward in general? It's never occurred to me that I wouldn't be able to hold a conversation with another adult. Do you hide in corners at parties? Are you unable to make small talk with coworkers about things other than work? Just talk to them. You might even make a new friend![/quote]

This is not to be mean, but do you get that the extroverts/gregarious people often come off as self-focused attention-seekers who are exhausting to be around, and ask personal questions in 2.5 seconds of knowing someone? Do you ever think about toning it down? People might like a break![/quote]

Man if you think pleasant conversation about school, play spaces, the weather, the area, other random things you have in common with this person purely by living in the same place and having a child of the same age is being self-focused and seeking attention you need to seek help with the social anxiety. This is not a normal reaction to someone wanting to make normal conversation with you. [/quote]
