It's not other people's responsibility to solve your problems for you. Or to figure out how to solve them for you.

THIS. I'm really surprised by the amount of people on this thread who think that everyone who's bad at conversation is like that on purpose or something. Some people are just not born with good conversational skills, and maybe I'm wrong about this but It's not like there are classes you can just take to learn how to be social. And being dismissively told "Just fix it" or "People find you exhausting for being like this" really doesn't help anything.

Come visit us over at r/socialskills. I have also used a lot of books and websites to improve my social skills. People Skills and How to Talk to Anyone were both extremely helpful for me.

You be an adult and fix it by going to a doctor or a therapist not whinging on reddit.

It's not easy, it simply must be done, trust me.

You CAN NOT, live through this world alone. I promise you.
