    Yeah, I’m the opposite. The handful of times I’ve asked when desperate for a conversation, the results were at best mixed for the conversation and most times I feel worse.

    If they’re ‘above’ me that just results in me feeling small. If they’re below me it makes me feel uncomfortable or even rude, even if it was just a question. The only time it works out is if they’re roughly “on par” with me and that’s only like a third of the time the case. Not great odds.
