RE: Do you know a social chameleon

Most social chameleons I know are playing a role of sorts when socializing in large groups. I've met very few people who are genuinely themselves in these types of situations. They keep conversation light, ask pointed questions to get people to talk about themselves and then just listen intently (this makes people really like you generally), and never stay with one person or group for very long. I'm naturally an introvert so this takes a lot of work for me. I can do it but it takes a vast amount of energy. I also have a hearing issue that makes it tough to concentrate and determine how loud I'm talking when there's a lot of background chatter so I tend to lock in on one conversation at a time, preferably in a quieter part of the room.

I am totally the same way. I don't have a hearing issue, but I do have an attention issue. In certain circumstances it is impossible for me to focus on any one conversation. Great points you made here.
