For once in my life, I want to be a normie. Tomorrow night, after work, I'm going to see a movie then hang out at a bar for a couple hours (alone, because I have no friends). How should I act? How do I talk to people?
>>34138815Good. Sit at the bar for a couple hours. Don't drink a lot, only a little. I don't think you will actually make any connections, but maybe it will happen.
>>34138815That's a great question. I honestly don't know. But I do know that going alone is a sigma move that shows a lot of bravery and leads to personal development. So do it, good on you man
>>34138815Just wanna say if you go through with this, it won't make you a normie. Normies always arrive at cafés, restaurants, bars, cinemas etc with other people, either a friend group or a lover. By going alone you'll be better than a normies, you'll carry the appearance of a man who knows how to treat himself right, and that's pretty cool. I wouldn't recommend wandering up to strangers to talk to them, people will assume bad things. We live in a low trust society now. When an adult man approaches people at random in public places, everyone automatically assumes that you either want sex or want money. It's sad but it is what it is.Still you should go through with going it alone and giving yourself a good time, you earned it bro. Make a thread here when you've done it so we can congratulate you
>>34138815>I want to be a normie>alone, because I have no friendsyou do realize normies have friends right? >How should I act? How do I talk to people?if you're asking this, it's already overit's supposed to come out naturally, usually you start with small talk like the weather or your dogs shenanigans
>>34138855The bar that I'm going to allows dogs. I've been there a few times before, and people will let you walk up to their dogs and start petting them. It's a decent conversation starter.
These are all boomer millennial old conceptions of normieNormie doesn't exist anymoreYou're either socially anxious/spineless or you're notNow die normie scum rrrrrrreeeeeeeeeee
>>34138815I go to movies by myself. Go out to eat by myself. But I hate sitting in bars by myself. It's so much cheaper and more fun to just be in my own space when I drink.Act like yourself. Idk I'm not much of a conversation starter. I usually comment on something happening in the space I'm sharing with the stranger I'd like to talk to. Like if someone has a really weird hat, or you just saw a rat with a chicken leg(this happened for real). An interesting non sequitur.
>>34139016>with the stranger I'd like to talk towhat if that person is already talking to someone else?what if you're literally the only person in the entire place who is by themselves?
Bump.
>>34138815Sorry, but this is really pathetic. Just go home after work
>>34138815>How do I talk to people?Don't talk to people at the movie.Pick a bar with a TV. React to something on the TV. Instant conversation
>>34141121Bars usually show sports, and I don't know anything about sports. Besides, the bigger problem is that most people are already engaged in conversation. If the people next to me are talking to each other, it'd be rude to just butt in with some comment about what's happening on TV. Finding someone who isn't already in the middle of something is the hardest part.
>>34141405>it'd be rude to You have to not give a fuck about this (or give a fuck but do it anyway), then learn to explain yourself to the person, advocate for yourself, hell say random 4chan poster told me to do this sorry not sorry, then if THEY'RE still rude about it, then that's your ticket to ACTUALLY be rude in return
OP here. I just left the bar. When I first walked in, I sat down next to a guy with a dog, and we ended up taking for a while about random stuff. He gave me his phone number and suggested we hang out some time. Also talked to a few girls. One was sitting by herself smoking. I don't smoke, but I sat down next to her and struck up a conversation. I feel like this wouldn't have worked if she had been with someone else. Didn't get any girl's phone numbers, which is disappointing. But maybe someday.
>>34138815Doesnt work. You have to be a normie for months to gain at least a few results in normiedom. Dont forget to keep a job because its expensive, thats why theyre normies to begin with.
>>34143308based, very proud of you non
