My problem is, I've talked to so few people since 2005 that I've lost my social skills. I can do brief conversations with strangers e.g. 'nice weather isn't it', 'busy in the shop today isn't it', 'hi postman, thanks for the parcel,' etc.
But anything more than that, I get bemused stares, whispering behind my back, sudden accusations of 'saying horrible things.' Whatever those horrible things are, I've no idea. So I'm giving up on talking to people.
