I mean. it's a way to network I suppose. But the idea feels so, _so_ wrong to me.
Like, I seek few deep relationships with other people. Even if I were to overcome my rather consequent fear at the idea of networking, that wouldn't suppress the fact that the concept means I make relationships for the sake of having more of those, not for any amount of interest in the person.
It seems just _so_ backwards. I can give the impression of connecting, but then I won't have actually connected with the person, they might think I have but I likely won't. If I were to connect to this person, then need to use that connection later on, I probably won't remember jack sheez about the person, let alone feel any bond with them.
Also, I can fake through it all I want, I still have mental batteries to maintain and if I'm drained, I'm drained. Game over. Conversation won't go much further and I'll probably seek any way not to talk to anyone out of pure reflex.

So in this day and age its common to network through the internet and make new friends through the internet right? Well. lately ive been making a lot of new friends and its gotten easier for me to network or talk to folks in real life, however because of this ive been feeling like i need to take some time to myself and like. recharge. So i was wondering what you guys think, is it possible for your social battery to drain through the internet?

Networking is a sham, it's just a new phrase for what can you do for me. I value my time and don't want to be bogged down with b. s. state your case, if there are fallacies with it, then I'll say something. If it's complete garbage and cant be salvaged, your future input will be ignored. I just don't like people wasting my precious time.

Thank you so much for this video! I'm an introvert that just graduated from community college. All my friends have been the ones I grew up with since elementary/middle school. I'm heading to Uni in a few weeks with completely new faces and places to meet. I'm terrified but this video is great! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much for this video. Gonna use all the tips and tricks from this video said no introvert ever. I am too introvert to use it, I will say only but won't act on it. My friends say act on it and don't just say it but they don't know how hard it is for me to actually do it.

This is really helpful for someone like me who can be very awkward to talk to. I think I will start gradually weaving these helpful tips into conversations. I think it's all about baby steps and seeing what does and doesn't work. Thanks for this refreshing video!

I want to go for entrepreneurship but I HATE socialising and I HATE humans in general. I don't feel the need to converse with people because I'm convinced nearly everybody around me is an idiot (no, I'm not a narcissist) and I don't want people bothering me.

Oh man this is helpful. I used to think I was great at starting a conversation and keeping it going, but once I graduated I realized that my go to was always to talk about how school has been, and I can no longer do that so I draw a blank every time.

Here it Goes Biatch!
1. Talk about what Brought You Together
2. Try to find a deep and solid similarity
3. Ask Some Follow-up Questions
4. If you are Talking, keep Talking
5. Avoid close-end Questions

Okay, this came in handy. I run out of questions easily. Talking to new people on a social site has helped quite a bit. Now I just have to start networking face to face and maybe I'll start feeling better.

I dropped an accounting course because the word networking was repeated so many times that i found out how pointless it would be for me when I considered my personality

Do I'm the only one who prefer to listen instead of talking, I just feel the world force me to talk (or else nobody talk to me) and to be something I can't be.

Asking questions you don't care about answers. Pretending that you are interested in them or their stories while you are not. You cannot be yourself.

What I find hard is not starting a conversation with a stranger but having a second one if I meet them again or if I want to have another one.

If somebody mentions a gender fluid dog
1. Laugh at them
2. Never talk to them again because you know that they are a nut.

I don't need that negativity. Genderfluid dogs? My dog's laughing in his grave. He too thinks humans should be genderfluid.

It's bloody hard when the whole world seems to be set up for extroverts, apart from self-service scanners, they're a joy.
