>autistic and can't hold a conversation to save my life>play a lot of rpgs>start treating conversations like have dialogue wheels>it actually works and normies like talking to me>blah blah blah and susie did thisTell me more.>then she blah blah blahThat's interesting. Is there more you would like to tell me?I walked into a bar and the bartender asked me>what can i get youWhat can you tell me about this town?>blah blah blahDid anything interesting happen recently?>yeah in fact, blah blah blahIt's that easy.
>>736194386Yes, you've figured it out.People like talking, people like being listened to, people like active listeners.You just have to figure out what it is they're into and get them to start talking about it.That's what's great about conventions, you already know what people there are into.
>>736194386This works especially well when your interlocutor is an ESL.
>>736194386I tried asking a bartender if the Jarl's men came by to drop off any bounties and I got laughed at
>>736194483Women seem to hate this shit. I'm an active listener but really reserved about talking about myself. The last 3 girls I dated all had the same complaints, that I was too closed off and didn't talk enough. I need a woman who wants to do all the talking with minimal interaction from me. It's not like I'm ignoring them I'm a very active listener and retain all the information.
>>736194386>tfw real life really is like an rpg in which the npcs never ask you anything and just want to talk about themselves
Why is the weather often the first thing that comes to mind?
>>736194751Oh. I have no idea about women or dating, I suck at that too. I'm talking about making friends and networking. I'm a great schmoozer but not a great romancer. That's probably why I have a million female friends but not GF. I was told a girl liked me a few nights ago, but I barely had any time to talk to her one on one and I couldn't find a single opening when we were talking. (Though I'm probably bad at spotting one.)Does anyone know the secret to being good at IRL romance questlines?
>>736195184Be attractiveDon't be unattractiveNothing else matters
>>736195798Have money. That overrides the other two in 99% of cases.
>>736196009not necessary money leads to short term commitments and leaching
>>736195798>>736196009I have no money and I'm fat, and I still manage to do pretty decently with women all things considered. Ones you'd definitely consider out of my league. Maybe women are just really shallow in america compared to here
>>736194386lmao, I'm going to try this next time I'm out
>>736196009Maybe in the third world. Here in the west a woman can legally steal half your belongings so they stay with you for the minimum amount of time and then do that. Yes even without marriage
>>736194386what mod is ops pic? There's no trait or perk called superior mind and I couldnt find it googling. also this thread reminds me of an anon who said they unironically learned from solid snake to just repeat what the opposite person said. ill see if I can find it in desuarchive
>>736194751A good rule especially at the start, is say things for the purpose of entertaining yourself. If i had nothing really to say i'd just make up things that happened on a previous date and they just find it amusing
>>736194386Yeah socializing is all about sounding normal. Social cues are highly ritualized so if you look and sound normal it doesn't really matter what you say specifically.
>>736194386
>>736196353>learned from solid snake to just repeat what the opposite person saidIt's weird that among English speakers this is seen as kind of weird, and also saying somebody's name when you're talking one on one. I have a lot of ESL friends and both of these are very common in their cultures. Japanese takes it especially far because they have a history of court etiquette that's lived on into "business socialization", so everyone there knows like a few hundred stock phrases they can use in social situations to keep the conversation going.
>>736197102Saying someone's name isn't weird, it's important in the west. If you aren't using name repetition and eye contact the other person is not going to have a good impression of you and first impressions are extremely important.
>>736196009Money is just a temporary shortcut, the divorce dlc will cuck you out of your money so it's not a solution to a bad build
>>736197228Yes eye contact is good but don't be staring people down without blinking or looking away lol
>>736194483>That's what's great about conventions, you already know what people there are into.being invasive parasitic normalfaggots that don't belong there?
>>736197228This is some autistic skinwalker shit. You call your friends "man" or "dude" if you're alone with them. Saying someone's name over and over is a power move, you only do it if you're trying to fuck them or assert dominance in an argument.
>>736194386Metal Gear Solid taught me to just repeat what a girl said in the form of a question to sound like I was listening. 60% of the time it worked every time.
>trying to fit in instead of embracing the sigma loner life without social skillsSure is summer in here...
>>736197743based and honesty pilled. i hate normalfag cattle so much i truly cannot fathom sane people desiring to be embraced by them, sickening normie scum... i bet they fell for the vaxx scam too so at least their days are numbered.

>>736194386>hey anon did you catch the game last night?Tell me a secret about the Sabbat.>what the fuck are you on about?I am no longer here.>weirdoGreat tips anon, great tips
>>736197228>If you aren't using name repetition and eye contact the other person is not going to have a good impression of youThe complete opposite for me. If you want to leave a good first impression you shouldn't say my name past the the initial greeting and you should only make eye contact when saying or asking something important.
>>7361980173d? Failed normalfag alert
>>736194386>>736198293This shit will always remind me of a Terry Davis livestream where he was at a grocery store and starting walking away from an employee he was talking to mid-dialogue. As if he was talking to a skyrim NPC. Cracks me up just thinking about it.
