I have always admired people who are genuinely social

OK, I sorta lied a little because i've never managed to label myself, so i was interested to read your interprestations.

I HATE public speaking, but I'm perfectly willing to do it and am not bad at it IF it's necessary for somethig I'm passionate about AND ...I know the most of the crowd (like a school function)

I hate to talk to strangers on the phone, hate to make small talk with shop assistants, would rather do the British thing of pretending people coming toward you on the sidewalk don't exist.....

But once I'm comfortable with you, watch out... I love to party and I'll talk the hind legs off a donkey.
