tomorrow i'm meeting a potential roommate for coffee to see if we get along

i do not remember how to meet new people in a "free" setting

like, the last time i met new people that weren't coworkers or people my roommates brought over was probably 2019. maybe even before that. how do you talk to people. how do you get to know people without the crutches of "we're stuck in this building for 8 hours but at least we have the common experience of bookstore job" or "hello friend of my friend how are you i just happen to live in the house you are visiting and i am relying on my friend to establish conversation topics."

see my problem is i'm introverted and awkward and also have interests that are not regular people interests and most of all idk how to be a person

#squash rambles #i may sound cool and eloquent when i type but meet me irl and i'm awkward as fuck #brain to fingers: works very well #brain to mouth: total system failure #also all the media i like is weird as fuck #and i don't care about sports or mainstream media stuff #and i'm not smart enough re: politics and that to talk eloquently about it or be super opinionated (aside from being generally leftist)#i get along with my bookstore job coworkers because we're all absolute freaks but also that's why we got hired in the first place
