Are you charismatic?



I remember in that depressing thread where CE revealed that there are over 200 virgins over the age of the 30, that a common reason given was that many were devoid of charisma. So this is the purpose of this poll.

I have noticed as GameFaqs has been dying, and the more extroverted users have been migrating towards reddit, that as a whole these boards have become somewhat stale, and vaguely humoreless. With many users simply taking themselves too damn seriously. I wonder if a lack of charisma has something to do with that.

My charisma in a one on one setting is what I see as my greatest asset. Not in all situations, but enough. Sober while in a larger group, not so much. As soon as I have the attention of too many people I just want to shoft the attention off me as quickly as possible.

Hell, if I'm in a group, I will instigate stories for others to tell. Ill bring up a moment me and someone there and then have them tell the rest of the story to the group. A lot of the time I literally just bring it up and say "Im not good at telling stories tho, you tell them".

Only down side is, you can't correct them or really jump in if they leave out parts you like because then it's like "do you wanna tell it yourself or not?". You already forfeited rights to tell the story your way >_>.

I don't have massive CHA but it certainly isn't my dump stat.

That would be CON, because whoever designed my character sheet was a fucking moron.

I'm not sure lol, I don't think I have much charisma tbh but then again I'm never in situations where I interact with people. My only interaction with people is when I'm working lol apparently there's people at my job that enjoy my company. >_>

You sound like someone who would sell yourself short

Possibly, people have said that about me in the past lol. Idk, I know this is going to sound silly but anytime I ever thought highly of myself, there's always something afterwards that basically puts me into place and I'll always have a shitty feeling of "why did I think that about myself?" that seems hard for me to get rid of. I just feel like it's overall easier for my mental health if I thought modesty tbh

Tbh, it's easier to navigate around people when you sell yourself short and exceed expectations. Instead of talk a big gane just to disappoint. The former is only necessary if you have a job where you need to stick out. If that's the case, you got plenty of examples where talking yourself up but never delivering still got the person super far lol. I can't do it. Feels so disingenuous to big myself up. You might just be waiting for that thing to humble you when you talk yourself up tho. Then any little thing becomes highlighted when it comes up.

The poll of the day is a perfect example of "poor charisma" among a portion of the GameFaqs userbase. If you absolutely cannot engage with somebody, or you are prone to judge them as beneath you due to their grammar...you probably have poor charisma. People who lack actual interpersonal skill, especially verbal skills, tend to over compensate with their written skills. Just don't be "that guy" who gets all judgemental over people saying "your" instead of "you're" - you may think that being critical of such a thing is a positive personality trait, but it really isn't. It will only help distant you from others.

I stopped talking with a friend entirely because, once they moved away, it turns out their ability to type was actually worse than if I just slapped my dick on the keyboard in the hopes of forming a word.

That being said: I run CHA and LUK hard because my WILL is shit.

edit: judgmental has just one 'e' ;-)
