Or maybe “regain” charisma? I effectively have negative charisma. The weird thing is that I never used to be like this…I used to be far more outgoing, felt like people liked me more. Was able to converse much easier. I find myself being almost ignored in new friend groups now. I don’t know if it is because I am uglier than I used to be or what but it’s very disheartening. I feel as if my ability to have even simple interesting conversations has vanished, even with people with shared interests and hobbies. I know people say it’s more difficult to make friends as you get older and, sure, that could play a part, but I am so envious when I see other folks I know who are around my age if not older effortlessly be charming, outgoing, and have full, fun conversations.
Sorry that this is kind of vague but I’m not sure how else to put it. Has anyone else become more charismatic in their later years?
Tagging this as relationships/dating as it has a lot to do with my relationship with the people around me 🙂
