Personally, I hate talking, saying hi or good morning because it's useless and superficial. Why talk when I could type it out? I don't even go outside without anyone because I fear being talked to. Yes, I'm pretty much living as a recluse because I'm antisocial. Do NOT PM me trying to attract my attention because I don't care about small talk if it's not a vent or some serious topics. How about you? Are you personally a non verbal in your view?

I talk too much!
Me too it gets me in trouble
Its not when its someone you know or having an interaction with. An in-person connection with other people can be very meaningful, fulfilling and therapeutic.
No. Too many kids and my neighbors next door are drugged out hoarders. I'm thinking about moving.*deadpans* Bet that's a quiet neighborhood...
Makes sense then.
Doubt it*deadpans* Bet that's a quiet neighborhood...
How long have you been friends with the gang of four?I'm decidedly anti social. I have a few friends and I refer to them as "The Gang of Four". To all others I only talk to them if there is no choice in the matter. I just don't like human nature.
Sounds like the neighborhood I used to live in. Glad I got out!
*begins talking as boisterously as possible*
For me it's meaningful if it's someone who's actually a friend.
Oftentimes with acquaintances it's just a politeness interaction which can be tiring if I were to be around them all day especially in group situations. Just pretending to listen and all when I'm really zoning out, aha.
But hey, that's the difference between friends and acquaintances, right?
Sounds like the neighborhood I used to live in. Glad I got out!
Me too. I got sick of it. It made our home a very depressing place to be. When you have toxic neighbors like that, they effect everyone else with their bad living habits.
I mainly avoided talking to them. They were trashy people. They took a beautiful house in a really nice neighborhood that was in great shape 15 years ago and destroyed it. It looks like shit.
It was very upsetting that they were throwing trash in our back yard and on top of our roof that I had to clean up, they were letting their dogs hop the fence into our back yard, their daughter was inviting her friends and using our front yard as it if were her own personal playground (we got after her about that), and they were parking one of their cars over our property line close to our house. I tried to be very nice about it. I talked to a police officer and they said I'd have to officially report it and after so many police calls I could take them to the court and push a lawsuit because it belonged in a civil court. However, I don't own the house, so it'd have to be the owner's decision. Moving was the better option.
Wow that's hella rude!! Surprised you tried to be nice about it!!
You never know when druggies may be burying their crimes in your space.
