This goes both ways though. I used to always have a book with me because I would rather escape in a book than have to connect with people. I was pretty terrified of being rejected and books were easier than trying to make friends.

That's kinda douchey... the effort should be mutual - you end up making others feel like shit.

No, being on your phone during social gatherings is rude. It doesn't matter that their conversations bore you, and perhaps the topic is entertaining or intellectually stimulating to them. How would you feel if you were talking about something you cared about and the people "listening" were actually just on their phones because your topic bored them?

I believe I am a tolerant and overall kind person. I hate when people are always on their phones too. It's just being forced to socialize with people like you, who try to act like they are somehow above me, makes me much rather be on my phone. This is supposed to be a FUN website and this was just a FUN post. Why don't you help contribute to making this website as light hearted as possible?

Where did you get any hint of condescension in my comment above?

Perhaps the tone was condescending? Don't agree or disagree with either of you, just trying to help out.

That might be the reason. I've been told several times in real life that I sometimes come off as arrogant even though I don't intend to sound that way. Thanks satans_mistress

No problem. I have a few friends like that and I have to remind them to chill.

Wow, sounds like you're pretty full of yourself, aren't you?

Guest...who's full of themselves. lane6 or the person posting this. I think the person posting this is because, maybe, if they gave other people a chance, they just might enjoy themselves. Or they could at least pretend to be polite.

reply to myself. I met this geeky, annoying, "boring" jerk at a party and I didn't want to be rude and blow him off. Turns out he was very intelligent, and hilarious. He still makes me laugh every day after 20 years.

If I was replying to lane6 I would have hit reply. I agree with lane6.
