when i meet new people, like colleagues or classmates or mutual friends, they are so awkward around me. they're not mean but they aren't their full selves and they seem very hesitant, which in turn makes me feel awkward and discourages me from being my usual bubbly self.
i'm not doing anything to make them act this way, but they don't act like this with others.
also, when i speak to people (strangers, usually) such as customers at work or meeting them at parties, etc, people usually laugh/giggle when they speak to me. i'm literally never saying anything funny and (at least i don't think) i'm not making funny/weird faces. I scoop ice cream as a job and when people order w me they often laugh and all i do is ask them what flavors they want, just like my colleagues who don't get this reaction ever.
or it's happened a few times that i've met some guys who are mutual friends at parties and in the middle of a normal convo they just start laughing 🙁 i don't get it
am i a freak of nature? why are people so awkward around me like this when i'm truly not doing anything to create an awkward atmosphere??
