For the record I do enjoy the 'jerk' character I have. She's not quiet so much as she's a very irritated person. She comes across as very blunt and doesn't have a filter at all. I have fun RPing her when things get going or if its for some plot thing but there's always this awkward part in casual/social RP where I find it hard to approach people while still maintaining her personality.

Oh, I didn't mean to imply that you might not, I just personally struggled was all >.>;...

I see what you mean though, I do recall an instance where I attended an event and someone was very obnoxious/rude bumping into me while also requesting me to buy them a drink all in one process... It sounds like your character could greatly benefit from just being brash overall in any actions. Walking/bumping into people on purpose while in deep thought, or interrupting someone's conversation because you find something in particular distasteful in it. Walkups are tricky but I've often found in going about my business, I find the best roleplay without actually trying to look for it.

Bumping into someone while reading or writing something in my journal, even just being a poser near a light fixture while /em'ing to myself writing/reading attracts people. I often do that when I see someone's within vicinity to view it that has the tag up. I could picture your character going about a similar concept of just brooding aloud or grumbling , maybe staring at someone walk by and describing their character a bit in a harsher way. Suddenly noticing a delightful looking well dressed lalafell dancer is instead through your character's eyes and /em's a "pint-sized tramp with a stupid grin" or something to that effect. That would warrant attention at least, in the end you just have to be creative with your writing and not give up if someone just skips by you.

Meeting people as a stoic/anti-social character?
