There’s a girl in my run club like this. I deliberately run hard during the first couple km to wear her down. I ran into her at a work function one time and was going to say Hello, but she was already talking to four people.
AT THE SAME TIME
I don’t mean like at one at a time - she was actively holding a conversation with each person while they all spoke over each other. I was bewildered. She might be a witch. But she was having the time of her life.
There are people that I’ve worked with like this. One their cell phone and desk phone plus talking to a person in the office, still able to listen for alerts in the shop. Seriously impressive.
Robots.
This just proves that we’re all NPCs, and she’s the main character.
Witches gonna witch
My favorite ex-girlfriend is one. She’s genuinely interested in what anyone and everyone has to say, and radiates that enthusiasm.
The oddest thing about it is that even she thinks it’s sort of weird and she actually wants to pull back a bit, but she can’t. She says it’s like a magnet - someone starts talking and she’s just irresistably drawn in.
She actually went to see a psychologist about it, and she said that during the session it slowly shifted so that he was doing most of the talking, then at the end, he told her there was nothing wrong with her and that he couldn’t see her as a patient any more, then asked her out.
@WatDabney@lemmy.dbzer0.com she’s bewitched you too!
Run away!
I kinda want to date your ex. I need someone like that in my life.
Why did you break up and who dumped who?
I’d hazard most people like talking to other people. Even most introverts, although the threshold for how much is enough or too much is lower.
Sooooo edgy.
You literally posted this online, lol.
Anyway, I’m never shocked about this realization by those possibly chronically online, even though all they do is talk about their thoughts and feelings. 🤷
A great conversation is incredibly enriching
Dang. I figured this was shitpost, and was like ‘whateva’.
Nope. This is not shitpost.
This comm must be “I’m 13 and this is deep.”
… yeah? I love talking to people who match my vibe or people I find funny or people who have interesting stories
And those folks aren’t on here because they already do their socializing in person. A frightful thought.
Add that to the long list of selection biases you see here on Lemmy.
What else?
…well god damn.
I’m into tech.
I use linux (though I don’t understand it, and it drives me crazy)
I’m literally a mod of fuck_ai
Not a Marxist.
I’d say I’m liberal.
I’m a straight guy, but I’d say I’m pro-queer in the sense that I think they deserve to be happy and treated just like everybody else.
I’m an introvert. hides under covers
Also, I like comic books, model trains, video games, and blowjobs. Is there anybody else on Lemmy like me?
Some of us are here, too
Ewww. 🤢
I just like talking, who else can I yap to?
Me.
Did you know ancient greeks called giraffes “camelopards”? Cause they look kinda like a cross between camels and leopards? neat huh
Doubt
They like…what…
Those people should be avoided.
🤷♂️ Sorry
It’s the first step to not being an incel
An extrovert?
I like talking to some people. Do you not like talking to anyone? Like even people you care about?
There are very specific people I could talk to for hours.
Every one else can fuck off.
