Polina A. (ILI) - On Interesting People

Sometimes I get the feeling I’m not very interesting to the person, so I try to distance myself and act as if I am detached from them.

I would like to socialise with interesting people; if I don't like someone, I won't talk to them. I don't have that thing where I decide at first sight that a person is terrible and I won't talk to them. First, you have to get to know the person, and then I’ll see if they are interesting or not. I'm interested in people you can talk to about various topics without necessarily getting personal. I have acquaintances who only talk about themselves, and others who talk about school, people, friends, world events, or politics. I find it more interesting to talk to the latter; I learn more information.
