Default Do you like people?

Are you comfortable around people? Does it make a difference if they're people you know or if they're strangers?

Do you make friends easily? do you have many new friends? Do you like being around people? Do you think you're liked?

I don't know many things about you , so I think that's a great way of starting .

some people i'm comfortable around and others i'm not. it depends on the ora they throw off and that makes no difference whether they're people i know or strangers.

I make friends pretty easy. i'm easy to approach. I just started a new class at a different place on monday and i fit right in as i did when i started school in february.

I am quiet at first and don't say much until someone speaks to me (that's the shy part in me that i can't seem to shake off completely) but after a day or two, i'm out of my shell and become part of the group.

starting something new with a group of strangers scares me a lot! because of my shyness but there's always at least one person that i can connect with right from the start so that makes things easier on me.

I love people and i love being around people. i get along with anyone.

I can talk to anyone offline or online. I'm never shy.

If I'm drinking or am in a group of people or at work...I am a real sociable person.

The rest of the time....I really DON'T like being around people all that much. I could be a recluse and be very happy.

I don't have a medium ground in this area. I'm completely one way or completely the other way.

You probably could, but work productivity would decline dramatically.

I have the same problem, and I have always admitted to myself that I am not fit to work in large confusing organisations.

I'm uptight. That's the truth!! I don't accept easily people near me. I have many aquaintances and very little friends. But those I have... are very good ones.

Funny this is exactly how I am. I love people, except large crowds, I could live without that.

I am shy and usually wait for someone to approach me. I don't like crowds. I think most people like me once we get to know each other. I like people in general but am not real social until I get to know you. Even joining here and posting has taken quite a bit for me to do. I have a few close friends, two that are like sisters to me. Alcohol definitely loosens me up!

Luckily, I'm comfortable around people. Sometimes they intimidate me at first, but I just put it in my head that they're just simply... people--like you and me.

I love people and always try to find something special about each one I meet, I love looking for that and mostly it's not hard to find! I think I make friends easily now that I don't try so hard to please everyone like I used to. I'm content with who I am. I think I've achieved a reputation of keeping confidences to myself; so I've achieved a level of trust for which I'm very grateful!

I like to think I'm a people person. I enjoy being with people but I also am content spending time at home.

I don't like hanging out with idiots or people that demonstrate mean attributes. I'm not sure if it makes me a people person or not to be perfectly honest. I guess my time is limited and I only want to spend it with people I know of are good moral fabric, the rest just don't deserve my attention.

Essentially, if you have a good heart, I'll hang with you, if your a tard, c'ya.

[quote="Duke"]people that demonstrate mean attributes.quote]

i don't give these types of people the time of day. if i look at a person and i get that feeling of "you don't want to go near that one", then i don't. it doesn't happen too much though.

How many of you feel other people's ora? i do!! i feel what they throw off themselves at times. if it's a negative ora i feel, i don't go near that person at all.
