What is wrong with me being aloof around other people?

[coloradodem2005]

I talked about how I am aloof around women. What is wrong with that? Just curious.

1. Well, to connect you have to be a little warmer & more open...

...If you don't want to connect, then you have no problem.

2. Nothing. I tend to appear aloof in large groups

Much as I would have loved being a delegate this past week. In some ways it would have been very difficult for me. I'm much more animated and lively in small groups and one on one situations.

3. nothing, but it cuts down on

companionship opportunities. i sympathize, though, i am uncomfortable interacting with strangers and tend to be real aloof in gatherings

4. Yeah.

My thoughts exactly.

5. Do you feel insecure around women?

Do you feel like you're trying to hide something? I was like that for a long time, especially around women that I found attractive. Now I try to treat everyone the same, but it's really been a struggle and I still revert to my old ways occasionally.

6. Some women that drives them crazy

damn I ALWAYS wanted the aloof guy. The shy one. The quiet, mysterious, off by himself one.

It fascinated me and I considered it a challenge. It's the sole reason I chased Kirk Harwood all over the playground from third through the fifth grade. That boy just would NOT give me the time of day and damnit I was gonna FORCE him!

P.S. Never caught him. He's in prison now so probably pretty easy to catch but don't want him anymore.
