[QUOTE="oval_man, post: 1496403, member: 22602"]It was the first day of class. People tend to be nervous on the first day of class and will often try to break the ice with small talk. Small talk is, well, small because most people are self-conscious, want to make a good first impression and fear that esoteric topics or those that are too personal might be off-putting. The first day of anything, particularly when meeting a new crowd, can be uncomfortable for a lot of people—but especially for introverts, as was pointed out earlier. Jason, as this experience clearly bothered you enough to post about it, sounds like you need to ask yourself if you're anti-social—or, more accurately and constructively, why you felt anti-social at that particular time. Did you prejudge all these people as shallow? Doesn't sound very fair to me. I agree with what jeffB said: real estate is the domain of the extroverted. My realtor is the most extroverted person I know.[/QUOTE]
