I consider myself an introverted person. Actually, I consider myself a natural introvert who occasionally puts in some decent effort to be extroverted, because I do enjoy social situations and having friends. For example, last weekend, I told this female friend of mine to bring some of her friends and I'd bring my friends so we could have a nice little dinner mixer. I had to put in a lot of effort, but for those two hours, I was able to be very outgoing and extroverted. Anyway, I just came back from a party, and I can't help but feel that I'm not good at party conversations. It was a dorm party, and the music was loud and we had to shout to talk. I saw friends and acquaintances and we talked, but then about 3 minutes later we eventually ran out of things to say and they'd excuse themselves to go elsewhere. Meanwhile, there are some guys who are like the life of the party and can carry conversations for half an hour, just improvising as they go along.
Am I just boring? I couldn't help but feel like people were trying to get away from me. I introduced myself to a couple of new people, but they didn't seem interested in getting to know me.
I feel like I'm an excellent conversationalist. I have a diverse array of interests. I have many talents, from music to drawing to trivia knowledge. I'd even say that I'm a pretty cute guy.
So why do I feel like very few people want to talk to me at parties?
