[QUOTE="Sonoma, post: 1090120, member: 8421"] There's a lot to unpack here. You're not interesting just because you don't do interesting things, you're not interesting because you haven't been interested in anything enough to actually do it. A huge part of being interesting is being actively involved in the world around you, and not in some blase surface-level way. Do note as well that being interesting is entirely subjective to the person interested, and I think you have to identify who you want to be interested in you (and everyone interested in you is not an option). People who like nature interest me, people who like soccer matches do not. Conversationally with most people, the most interesting people are the ones who have a couple good stories to tell, and almost as importantly, make their audience feel like a welcome friend through meaning dialogue. You can't just start by giving a performance and expect people to find you interesting or likeable. [/QUOTE]
