How am I supposed to act in a social setting?
I have always been on the outside of social groups and without the benefit of family. Having never had someone tell me how to "act" in social settings, I would have asked, "How am I supposed to act in this setting?" This would have saved me the years of trial and error. An example would be that I often step into social settings in school and make a complete fool of myself by saying the wrong thing or not knowing when to speak, respond, etc.

Social setting is an act that will grow in you wants you meet friends your age in school. To be be in a social setting ... most of all to be popular is to learn how to be surrounded be people you know and trust. If you know how to be yourself and be sure who you are then others will accept you for who you represent. Answered by Laury D...Age : 34 1 month ago Edit Delete |

Believe me they were times when I felt like that. Especially since I was never allowed to date or go out on social events with my friend. But that probably a different topic since I can say that my parents did it to keep me safe. You can also practice with your friends and family members.

The best way to improve your social skills is by becoming a good listener. Allow others to initiate the conversation and be attentive to what they say and thoughtfully respond with your own thoughts and experiences. It is a skill that you learn after practice and not feeling pressured into trying to fill a void or moments of silence in a conversation. Practice with close friends and people you trust and feel comfortable with. Speak slowly and go over in your mind what you are going to say and try to catch yourself before saying something you might regret having said. Answered by counselorAge : 39 1 month ago Edit Delete |
