That's what having good social skills is.
- Retra 11y agoI wouldn't say you had bad basketball skills just because you have better things to do than play the game with me. There are people who are a priority to me, and they seem to like my social skills just fine. And if someone wants that out of me, they aren't going to get there by telling me I have poor social skills or that I don't smile enough. That's burning your bridges, and not an example of someone in a position to offer criticism.
- cortesoft 11y agoIf you refused to ever play basketball, I WOULD say you have bad basketball skills. You can only have skills if you play.
- Retra 11y agoI do play, just not when you want me to.
- irishcoffee 11y agoYou are contradicting yourself. If you stop playing basketball halfway through a game, and your rationale is "I do what I want, not what you guys want" you have _both_ poor basketball skills _and_ bad social skills.
- brazzledazzle 11y agoI think your analogy is being taken too far and is starting to unravel.
- rnovak 11y agoSo Michael Jordan now has bad basketball skills? abstaining from something doesn't make someone bad at it....that's just not logical.
