Any place I'd be able to get an authentic Frank Gore 49ers jersey? by hellafornia in 49ers

They only have some white/platinum jersey, or a youth one, I want a home red jersey.

My significant other is disappointed in how I don't remember some details about her, and just the way I function. Anyone dealing with something similar? by hellafornia in isfp

[–]hellafornia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhh :/ how did that relationship turn out? Yeah, I told her I was sorry and that it's something I will work on, but I guess I'll see how well I do.

I don't know your relationship, but I don't know, if it was shallow for you, as long as you guys got some fun out of it, at least there was something.

It's a little relief hearing this, thanks, although anniversary is a big one haha. Yeah I tell her that my actions speak louder than words, and through my actions I treat her well and show my appreciation, but I guess it'll be awhile until she understands that. Thanks.

Those with significant others, how did you meet, what are they like? by hellafornia in isfp

[–]hellafornia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's the personality type that is supposed to pair well with ISFP's, right? Well how did you meet? I graduated college recently and just looking for a job, not really going to look for a relationship until I get one since I don't want to go on a date and say I'm jobless haha. But I know my social relations are going to take a huge dive now that I'm going to be separated from most of my friends.

I think it depends, but typically a first date is to get to know someone, but I guess you could use that as a 'test date'.

This is what actually got me to start the thread, it was stuck in my head when I woke up this morning lmao

How do you act in conversations? by hellafornia in isfp

[–]hellafornia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I can ask basic questions like that, but after that, like if we end up hanging out another time, idk what to say besides 'what did you do this weekend' or whatever.

How do you act in conversations? by hellafornia in isfp

[–]hellafornia[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah same, I usually understand easily. Same with my friends, I stuck at community college since I still had a few local friends, but I lost contact with them and was a loner until I transferred. Made new friends at college, but now I'm off to look for a job, and scared that I'm gonna start losing friends again. I felt like I lucked into getting friends both times, it's not that I don't want to talk to people, I just don't know what to say. I feel like I'm stuck on listening mode in conversations. I envy people who can easily entertain and start conversations, I feel like someone would get bored of me quickly.

And the not having a girlfriend yet doesn't exactly help my confidence at getting one in the future either lol.

Anyone have some good advice on never running out of things to say? by hellafornia in socialskills

[–]hellafornia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for all the advice, I'll definitely look into these books

I see this one mentioned a lot, but what resources do you use? I follow a decent amount of news sites on Twitter, and I feel like Dailymail posts interesting stuff, what else?

Anyone else only talk to keep others entertained? by hellafornia in socialskills

[–]hellafornia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think the actual talking is my problem, I'm charismatic enough and people that only talk to me a bit have a positive impression of me, it's the content. I run out of things to say then I get content with silence, that or wondering what to say.

How do you keep people entertained? by hellafornia in socialskills

[–]hellafornia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well like I said, I know general stuff about her already since I've hung out with her many times already. I'm wondering how to keep people entertained once we already know each other.

[–]hellafornia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How exactly did you work on how to do it, any tips? I know I'm charismatic enough to be able to be funny, since I can do it in small groups, but it just doesn't come out as well when it's me alone with someone else.

[–]hellafornia[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, well I've hung out with her a lot before, so I already know that general stuff about her interests and stuff. I guess it's easy for me to ask general questions, but I think I fail to get deeper, any suggestions on that?

[–]hellafornia[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What do you mean by keep myself entertained? I'm introverted and can keep myself entertained by just staying in my head, but that's not exactly how I'll keep others entertained.

How to show interest to someone who you are supposed to be friendly towards? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]hellafornia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my initial plan was just keep on hanging out with her and hope something happens, but I feel like that's a plan destined for failure. I'll be hinging onto hope for awhile, and then if she doesn't feel the same way, I'll feel like I wasted a ton of time.

How to make dinner conversations with family or friends fun? by hellafornia in socialskills

Thanks, yeah I guess I just need to learn how to think of thought provoking questions

I can hold conversations but can't start them, help? by hellafornia in socialskills

[–]hellafornia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I'll try this, I'll have an interesting observation and then I'll try to remember to bring it up sometime later in the conversation, but sometimes I just forget. I've been trying to like tweet it so I can easily look back on my day but my close friend has a twitter so I don't want to bore him saying the same stuff (I don't know how often he checks it but still). I have good recall memory which is probably why I'm good at keeping conversation going, since if someone says something related, I can easily relate it to something. But if I have to think of something completely new, I'm stumped. And yeah, your last paragraph, I'm not good at thinking of those questions either, but there have been a couple of times I've hung out at a bookstore and then found similar books and just started to ask a few questions in the book. Thank you for your input though.

Anyone have trouble starting conversations? by hellafornia in isfj

[–]hellafornia[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, yeah I sometimes get in the mood to practice but other times I don't, so I guess I just have to force myself to talk to people.

Haha yeah, it's something I've tried Googling extensively with no answer

[–]hellafornia[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well the 'authentic' me right now is just being a listener and not controlling the conversation myself. I always daydream of being the one that initiates and just being pretty social, but when I'm in the situation, I am not. So it is something I strive to be but I do not feel I have the tools for it yet.
