I really bang my head with this one. Sometimes I have a super high social flare and other times I can't talk my way out of a wet paper bag. What makes people want to listen to what you have to say or want to be associated with me? Lately, I've been denying my abilities to draw and keep crowds and it worries me. I feel like I'm living in a shell and need to break out. So tell me what attracts you to a person socially. They listen, Confindence, have a hint of sophistication or wisdom to there voice. What is it?

Their sense of humor.
I know if I see someone making people laugh, or laughing them self, I'll want to be around them, and get in on these giggles.
But on the other hand, if people are having a nice conversation and someone wants attention and decide to be 'random' and says something, that would be funny at the right moment, but not when they're talking about something else..
I guess it just comes down to knowing where to draw the line..

Sensativity used to be a very good trait of mine. Over the years I've found that lending the sympathetic ear for too long allows for people to take advantage of your generous nature.

Warmness, give the impression that you aren't going to make fun of someone for something they say and confidence is always good.

it sounds like you are simply changing. maybe you are growing just a little differently than the crowds you usually target. you just need to find your group and your topic.

The only way I am attracted to people socially is if they show any interest in me at all. They start talking to me, then that's lovely. I have some social anxiety issues and I never really speak to anyone that I don't know, so I am usually thrilled when someone new starts talking to me despite my quiet personality.

The first thing I notice about a person is how friendly they seem. I'm usually more inclined to hang around people who are funny, and have similar interests as me. Confidence is excellent, too.

i am drawn to people who:

show an interest in me, that means listening to what i say and responding back in the relevant way... humorous, sarcastic, serious etc etc

I also like it when people tease me, but not to the extent that they humiliate me.

people who see things in me that i can't see... good things mind you.
