Same 100%, I find myself avoiding introducing myself to people so I come across as really standoffish and a lot of my friends now said they thought I was really rude when I first met them. In my first job when I was 18 there was a new girl working there and she introduced herself to me in passing and instead of responding with “Nice to meet you, my name is-“ I just looked at her and said “oh ok”, and continued working. Still makes me laugh till this day because we’re good friends now but she definitely thought I was extremely rude and judgmental at the start.
