Be quiet > Anon you need to open up more to people, that's

They only want you to talk about what's popular.

Then, once you've gained enough experience lying about your interests, you might be able to explore talking about what you really like.

anon.. anon..

its not your fault. ... its not your fault.

People are stupid, they tend to create feedback loops that make things worse.

With me it goes like this:
>feel uncomfortable to certain people
>be quiet around them
>they make comments about it in some way
>they make me even more uncomfortable

I know. I opened for quite a few years. Thought "what the fuck is there to lose?". I was known as the joker and the funny kid but everybody thought I was weird. As my time in high school ended I realized how lonely I was, and went back to my robotic ways. Fuck, I tried being social. We...tried, anon. Cm'here.

How bout that sweet spot where you talk about things people care about and not about how religion is cancer and how much you hate society and stacies

I think that would solve this

Yesterday I thought that somebody asked me why I was so quiet yesterday, I gave him an answer but it turned out that he was asking somebody else who was just a little quiter yesterday than normal and he got annoyed that I awnsered

This. I think of it as a verbal handshake. They want you to demonstrate you belong to their society by telling them things that are popular/cool/acceptable and suggesting that you engage in activities which are seen as popular/cool/acceptable.

Learn to be more self aware in social situations. Talk about things that the other normies are talking about.

Not him but basically, yeah. If you want to get along with normies you have to always play it safe with conversations unless you're really sure they can handle a complicated or difficult conversation.
