Your Type
You are used to breaking awkwardness with deep questions; the more meaningful the question, the better the atmosphere. You are the kind of presence that makes people feel deeply understood. This tendency to "guide conversations with deep questions" actually masks your extreme resistance to "facing superficial pleasantries and failing to build true connections"; you fear that wasting time on meaningless nonsense will make you feel intense emptiness and social fatigue, so you use "questions that strike the heart" to forcefully pull the relationship to a depth you feel safe in. But if every chat feels like soul-searching, it can sometimes put invisible pressure on the other person. Try chatting casually about a silly movie you watched recently or good food you ate the next time you meet a new friend; when you learn to swim comfortably in the shallow end, your depth will be even more warm and charming.
