I don't know how to be social. I can't use the social media tools. I am a user of many. I don't use any. Or to be fair, I don't know how to use them. I would passively scroll through the timeline and yet not respond to any of the posts. Not that I don't want to. However, I don't know what to say. Or how to say it.

I feel awkward interacting with people I don't know.

Maybe that's who an introvert is.

Even in real life, I take time to comfortably open up with others. I am that silent, awkward guy hanging around in a group. Not knowing who and how to talk to someone.

No wonder then I feel the same discomfort in the digital space. What troubles me is I just end up wasting time not using these tools in the manner they are supposed to be used. I don't benefit in any way by using the services.

So why am I even on these social media sites then?
