I'm pretty friendly, I think. I've been told a couple of times that I'm a bit rough, but unless it's towards someone deserving it's almost never intentional.
I'm like a 10. I'm way too nice in person. Although I will admit that Larry David is my hero. I just don't have the heart to call people out on their bullshit in real life.
Same here.
For instance, someone dropped a dollar in Gamestop two days ago and I tried to see who dropped it. No one knew whose dollar it was, so my uncle took it. I asked everyone in the store though, even a guy who had walked out.
I'm super polite and friendly, the only problem with this is actually getting me to talk to you. I'm actually super shy and reserved especially around those I don't know very well. So it takes time for me to actually be open, I'm never rude though regardless of whether I know you or not.
I give my self a 3. I am always friendly to most everyone. What holds me back is my being very shallow. I make snap judgements on some people, and this often results in treating them poorly. I'm working on it,
I help people out a lot, but occasionally there are people I can barely maintain a conversation with. I'm somewhere between a 4 and a 5, but that puts me at about a 4 as a result.
Uhm, I frown a lot...which I know makes me seem horrible to others, but most are just cocks around college, kind of a warning "I don't like you so I'd rather not talk before I say something stupid". If you know me I help out loads and stick up for mates whenever I need. I keep all my nasty thoughts and rant at people like me when I can, so I'm either silent, or nice-ish. Me and my mates wind each other up A LOT, and hit each other and crap, but I still consider us nice to each other.
3-4. I was more friendly when i was younger. I remember when i was 11 i went to the movies, and when the movie was over, i held up the door for about the entire audience.
Depends on the day. My problem is though I am Schizoaffective (which is schizophrenia and bi-polar) so if I am having an episode I can be downright bitchy. But if I'm not I'm pretty friendly. As long as you dont mind the fact I also am kinda socially retarded so I may say inappropriate things at times not meaning to offend.
Dude no offense but what is it with your threads??? They're aalways about "how to understand women psyche", "guilty pleasure songs", "how friendly are you" etc. Don't get me wrong I am pro freedom of speech but I kinda see some sort of pattern over there.
And by the way I am always trying to be neutral. Neither friendly nor unfriendly because this way you can keep people you don't know on a distance. I change this behaviour when I am truly interested in people (friendly) or completly annoyed or disgusted by them (as un-f***ing-friendly as possible).
I'm too nice, for sure. I'm trying to change that, but it's hard to not always be the nice guy. Doesn't mean that I'm never an asshole, but I definitely have a habit of doing too much to please others.
4-5, if your not a nice person in real life you probably have some social issues or were molested as a child.
Meh. Some of the people for whom I have the deepest respect aren't nice guys. The way I see it, most people are nice because they're covering up for some sort of insecurity. They irrationally believe if they're nice to others, others will be nice to them. People who are mostly dismissive of others, on the other hand, are usually more secure in themselves, because they don't need others' approval to live their lives.
Now, don't take this wrong, I'm not talking about people who are maliciously cruel to others. I'm talking about people who don't bend over backwards for others.

Well I truly believe if you are a nice guy and show respect to everyone then you will lead a positive life, if your out being an asshole and looking down on people then your just putting out negative energy and there is something behind what's causing that. Now if your so nice as to let the world walk all over you, well then there is a problem. I treat others as I would like to be treated and it's how I was raised.
I also see what your saying though, I am in general a nice guy, but if someone is not giving me the same respect I am giving them, I will show no respect right back. I have no time in my life for assholes.
to strangers i'm probably a 4 o a 5. then if a relationship develops and we get past the initial courtesy stage i'm more willing to show my true self which is an asshole so like a 2 or 3.
actually you could say i have the problem of never being comfortable enough to get past being overly polite to new people and not letting a lot of possible friendships grow by acting more naturally around them. something to work on i guess
I make the greatest effort to be welcoming, tolerant, patient, friendly, honest and just. I am lawful neutral after all. So yes, I am a 5, always friendly.
