My only guess is that statements like this ring true for someone who is having the experience of being successful socially. However, they seem completely useless to someone trying to change their behavior in order to be socially successful.
- andrewflnr 2y agoIn the form of advice for people trying to get better at social stuff: fake confidence and relaxation, in the full confidence that it quickly becomes true. I'm probably a mild case, but once I got it, this worked for me. (That, and it's helpful to have a few canned entry and exit lines. Knowing you can break off a conversation if it gets awkward or stalls makes it less scary to start one. Even just a version of, "well, it was nice to meet you, I'm going to move along now", in whatever phrasing sounds right from you)
