Re: The science of social interaction. [Re: Larrythescaryrex]

Larry i feel for you, i was once in that position all the time.  The hardest thing about it is you individually lack of control over social interactions.  However you do have individual control over social interactions even though it may not be in the way your used to thinking.  When someone is talking look em right in the face and listen to them as hard as you can.  If you put all your energy into listing, you would be surprised how easy it is to figure things out about the person and what they are saying.  Then right their you got some knowledge about that person and therefore some commonality with them and a gateway to a conversation. 

At all cost don't let an ego get in the way.  If you sit their and think "these guys arn't as smart as me so thats why i have nothing to say to them"  it will only increase your detachment from the group.  Remember their is much good as evil in everything and everyone, and although the conversations may seem simple the joy it can bring to the people involved in the conversations can be as subjectively valuable as the most heated philosophical/spiritual debate. 

I myself started out as a recluse/reader  transitioned to  social/ party animal  and now although i still drink with my friends as a release consider my path to be far more spiritual/naturalist these days. 

Hope i could shed some light :tongue:
