But I know I made friends my freshman year so easily, my freshman year of College, so easily by just saying one thing, asking the person next to me, starting the conversation off about an assignment. And now we still have conversations to this day and a friendship that can't be broken. So I really just want to encourage, encourage anyone. Make the first move. And don't be scared to ask someone for a pencil. Ask someone if they understand the assignment

And if making friends is your goal, yeah, you probably really shouldn't overthink it, because people don't want someone who's disingenuous or not being authentic and just trying to say whatever will appease the other person or incite some sort of rise out of someone just for attention in that sort of way. But, yeah, I think that for me, the moments where I get anxiety about relationships is definitely when they're already formed

Oh, my gosh. Yes. Literally, when it's organic and the conversation just flows so much better. Like you said, when you fish for stuff and, like, you kind of have to think for questions, it just kind of like you're giving so simple answers at that point. So it's like, okay, I don't know if we should still talk, but. Yeah, thanks for responding

Right. I think that that's the key is that people kind of pick up on those vibes of just like, okay, now I'm just giving a one word answer. Like, I'm not really into this conversation. And then, yeah, unfortunately, got to kind of move on, kind of try with someone else, try a different connection. But I don't think that people should be discouraged if they're not easy to converse or if they're not a good conversationalist
