I'm a bit of an oddity; depends entirely on the other personalities in any situation. If I'm with quiet, introverted people, I will take the lead and be the one who organises things and gets things done - but if I'm with loud, extrovert types I will always shrink into the background and be quiet and just observe the whole time. The latter is usually my default response in any group situation, even with my closest friends, unless certain people aren't there. So I suppose I'm a bit of a sidekick in the story of life, who steps up to the challenge when needed

. Having said that, I'm not afraid of being myself if I want to impress people in a new situation.
I guess I'm about 50/50 in terms of whether or not I initiate conversations. With some people I feel like I put in all the work and that annoys me to no end though. I definitely feel like my supposed best friend wouldn't care if I disappeared off the face of the earth and I have made a concerted effort to stop speaking to him unless I see him in person because he's never bothers keeping in touch.
