Thanks for all the replies.

I was going to start a new thread but this one is still quite fitting for what I'd like to say..

I find that some people just don't get me.
I ask about them or about their day and get met with just short answers or feel they have no interest in having a conversation with me.

Example, I went to the cinema with my friend and afterwards asked him what he thought of the film, he said it was good and I referenced a few parts that's I liked it were funny to make some jokes and keep the conversation going because to me, seeing a film with someone is a great conversation starter! Anyway, it was like getting blood out of a stone so I abandoned that conversation quickly.

I text another friend today asking him to give me a call when he's free. He called but was noticeably distracted, I asked what he was up to he said wathxinf football and doing some work. I said for him to call me back once he's done. He said no let's chat now what's wrong? I said nothing, jsut wanted to catch up. I made a joke about the lady who lives downstairs as she's usually quite loud and asked if she's gone to bed yet in a joking way meaning has she been bashing about he snapped at me asking why I was phoning to make stupid jokes. I explained that I Purley called for a light hearted chat and be got defensive.

Is it me? Is it the way I try and connect to people. I seem to find it a massive struggle having any sort of connection to humans and it's happening more and more with so many people in my life so it must be ME.. right?

This may seem rather dramatic but should I just make zero effort now and see who actually is interested in me?
