[quote=Anonymous]So, I know this is weird, but in reading the comment about the MIL being a former therapist and her asking weird deep questions, I think I'm a bit like this. Not deep personal questions, but I'm not that at ease when talking to people who I'm not close to. So I ask questions and try to seem interested in their lives on their terms, or what I think is their terms. I just don't know how else to talk to them. I was in a setting last week where one woman was just so easy talking about this and that and whatever, so at ease, and when I spoke, trying to engage, I just sounded like a whack job. I am insightful enough to know I sounded like a nut, made a joke about it and everyone laughed in relief!, but when I launched into it I really didn't realize it would be weird. I think mostly people aren't insightful enough to understand that they sound weird.[/quote]
