Just being aware of the situations that might be making me socially awkward ... If I can spot what I'm doing wrong I think it can help me open up. Some things I've noticed with myself:
- Checking phone because I have nothing to contribute to the conversation.
- Waiting for the right time to say something, but gets interrupted and doesn't attempt to talk over the person interrupting.
- Someone I know is walking in front of me. So I maintain distance.
- Attempt to hold the door for someone, but they’re slightly too far away so I walk on
- Go "hidden" while online
- Accidentally looking someone in the eye and pretending to look past them.
- Saying something stupid but then trying to play it down due to embarressment.
- Trying to say “hi” to someone but it comes out as a whisper.
- Pretending that I'm texting when alone in a crowd.
- Walk into the restrooms and the stalls are full so I pretend that I only came there to wash my hands then leave. (Not the place for conversation ... but you get the point...)
If you have anything else to add it would be helpful. Might notice something I or others might have never realized.
