Attempting to socialize at events.

Sometimes trying a bit too hard to be relatable.

Trying to find a way out...
14.
...but never being smooth about it.

Wanting people to understand that you don't hate them, but would rather skip the small talk.
16.
Not even knowing what you're saying at times.

And eventually having to accept that small talk will always be a part of your life.
