Recently i’ve been trying to work on my social skills at work and try to be more open and really more approachable to talk too. Bit of lore, i’m asian american and growing up my interests were the complete opposite from those of my age. I steered towards more jpop and k-pop etc but i also did grow up with 2010 pop hits. Never got into the EDM scene, Rap, RnB the classics that most people now a days know and listen too.
People around me though talk about things i know about but never got into and it makes me feel like im missing out and thats why i can’t really hold conversations with my coworkers besides work talk.
So if i could, i need advice how i can work on that and also still be a “friend” and just someone they can rely or feel comfortable around
