I find myself sociable and extravert. Indeed, I have only few friends, when we gather and talk, most of the time I am talking and they are listening. When I finish talking we can sit in the park in silence for hours. I think my friends are introvert, but I don't think that I am introvert, because I like to talk and discuss things. With other people I am quick to argue and they don't like to talk with me. At school I also didn't have much friends, my schoolmates found me boring. But I did't want to talk with them because young people like noisy parties, talk about sex, boys etc, and I didn't like it, I didn't want to talk about my boyfriend and sex, I didn't like to go with them to disco, and they often told me that I'm boring. Maybe because I can't stand noisy parties I can't find many friends. If there are more than 3 persons talking I have a headache. But despite that I always want to have new friends and I found that I have another problem with communication. The problem is that I don't know how to communicate with new people, strangers. For example, I've registered on many social media sites and I don't understand how to talk with people. My chats with people are all the same: "Hello. -Hello. - How are you? - I'm fine. -And you? - I'm fine too. - What are you doing? -listening to music. -Ok." Chat ends. Maybe most of people have the same situation in chats? Please tell me. Tell me what is wrong with me?

Nie ma z tobą nic złego. Kiedy rozmawiam, zadaję pytania o drugą osobę, aby rozpocząć rozmowę. Nie znam polskiego ... po prostu przetłumaczyłem!
Lubię ten polski wokalista, chociaż:

I can relate a lot to what you're saying.. I'm sorry you're struggling with social interactions, too.

How about "what are you listening to?"

That's a good way to open a topic of discussion around music, exchanging personal favorites and that opens doors to other topics of mutual or individual tastes and interests...

The chat doesn't have to end at "ok"...
Thanks for this!

I just feel that I don't know what to talk about after talk about hobbies. It's like I lose interest in a person. Especially when I talk through Internet. I don't know who I am talking with. I always think that he could be a maniac or ill. maybe that's not good. But I am wondering how people talk through Internet, even find wives/husbands. How they talk so that they fall in love with unknown strangers?..
