Meeting People

First thing is first: I'm awful at meeting people.

It's always this weird mix of trying to keep the conversation light enough to not seem creepy while at the same time, getting to know people is all about learning about them and their pasts, which requires questions.

Plus, if you don't have any people in common to talk about, you have to talk until you find a point of interest that you can talk on.

And so, it's kind of awful. Not to say that I don't love meeting new people, but rarely does it just flow. And the people that I do just flow with...well, those people become my best friends.
