Are people being weird or is it me?

Wow..a few days ago I tried making some friends. So I went up to this girl to start up a conversation and asked her if she was on her period, because I just had this feeling she did. Then she just walked away. Then a few days before I tried being friends with my science lab partner. I had a feeling he was a gay jewish boy so I asked him if he was gay (im not gay) and he started getting angry with me. Weird people or is it just me

I don't know how old you are, but most people know that there things you just don't say or ask people in order to make friends.

Even though honest is good and will take you fair, slience sometimes allows the honesty to say within.

Don't ask people if they are gay or if they are on there period, because those are not good conversation starters with people you don't know.

Keep your thoughts to yourself.
Think about it before you say it.

If you want to make pals, don't jump at them with such questions! just make em' laugh, and they would like you eventually

Start off with small talk.. You know like 'What were you up to on the weekend'. Sure enough you'll get talking. If you ask questions like that.. I'm afraid you might just scare them a little bit.

Good Luck

Dear xylitolisluxurious,
From your previous question on mood swings and to this question I would say that you may have a problem. I suggest you talk with a school counsellor...tell them what you have told us her on the forum. Explain you mood swings and explain that you have no people skills...that you ask offencive questions without thinking it though. You may be suffering from a personality disorder or something similar. This can be managed quite well with counselling.
Sue...good luck

Are you TRYING to p*ss people off? Or are you just THAT socially inept?

Hm...So I have bad social approaching methods?

...yeah... along with a severe deficiency in realizing the OBVIOUS.

well I wouldnt go right ahead and say that you're weird, if you said that to me I wouldve laughed cause I think its funny+ random=) but other people arent like that and you just have to start off normally as possible even tho your blunt and straight foward simple things go a long way

lol, maybe you should think twice or maybe three times before you ask something to somebody
