How good are yours? Are you happy confident find it easy to chat to people. Are you a little shy or socially awkard. More of a wall flower or a go out get them kind of person.
Id rate my social skills quite high based on the fact i was recommended for my voluntry job based on them |

It really depends on the situation. I can be incredibly shy or incredibly outgoing.
I am a friendly person though and people tend to be drawn to me, I always end up chatting to strangers. |

In work I’m extremely socialable, anyone that comes in I’m chatty with straight away, all staff etc.
Outside? Socially awkward. I’m friends with a bus driver and we chat a lot, he asked me if I’m so awkward with him because I fancy him  |

Mine are quite good
I can and will talk to anyone about anything
I've just started volunteering too, as I have realised that although I like my own company, I do miss the interaction with others |

We're polar opposites! I'm the bend the ear off any poor soul, dance on the tables sort of person and Fuzz is the calm, quiet slightly socially awkward soul...unless he's downed a tray of vodka jellies with another fabber #youknowwhoyouare

It completely depends on the situation and also my mood.
I'm quite a chatty person so on the whole I talk to anybody but in big group situations I can be quite shy and a bit socially awkward. |

"Damn new phone & stupid carrot!
Try again....
Shutting me up is usually the problem 
And when I'm nervous, I talk even more - usually random gibberish before I burst into hysterics!

I can confirm  |

There and to the left a bit |
It very much depends - put me in a situation where I don't know anyone, or that I feel uncomfortable and I'm very much a wallflower and won't approach others to chat to unless I have to.
Put me in a situation where there are lots of people I know and I feel comfortable and I'm quite happy being a social butterfly.
That said if others come to talk to me in the first situation it doesn't take me long to feel comfortable and open up |

I am pretty good chatting but also a good listener too
God gave us two ears and one mouth for a reason
But you only get to see all of the real me once I feel comfortable with you |

At work - brilliant. I feel like I sort of adopt a successful, confident persona and it works for me.
Social situations, it depends. So I'd say I am middling - confident sometimes, others less so. |

I never shut up usually and with my job I have to be pretty confident socially. But meeting people from here turns me into miss nervous from shytown! Until I get to know them then I never shut up again |

I need them I deal with people of all walks of life all day long.
And no matter what I think I've to keep it to myself and help them the best I can.
Yet out of work I like to have time to myself. |

I'm quite good at chatting and schmoozing, especially for work.
But I've definitely found over the last few years I've become way less sociable. I'm a lot more content with my own company, or with a few close friends, than in big social situations now. |

I think the words you're looking for Peach are, aloof, brooding and socially awkward 
I certainly do better in smaller groups and one to one's though.

"More confident and social in chat as Lillie than in my male persona - quite common with Tv's apparently."
I've heard that a lot. I think it's a good tactic to learn though. |

Haha enjoyed reading that post
I float like a butterfly. Always happy, confident and engage with everyone. Socialising has always been one of my strengths in general and work. I enjoy mixing and mingling with people face to face. It's nice. Really nice feeling. |

I'm terrible. I'm really shy and prefer being with people I know. I hate crowds and lots of people.
I get anxious going to places where I know there will be lots of people, even if I know people there, and will generally hang around people I know rather than new people.
I'm much better in small groups and one to ones |
