Attitude de négociation

It was 10.21 pm when a friend of mine said 'Hi' to me. I was kind of startled cause I wasn't expecting anyone to talk to me, I was bored and kinda pissed. He was nice asking about how I've been these days and I was being nice and asking him the same thing, I don't wanna be rude. It was Saturday and its nearly 1.00 am in his. He asked me what am I doing online, and told me that he was up painting till 4.00 am so he wasn't resting properly and worse, he is a heavy sleeper so 6 hours is not very long, he always makes me smile. He asked me something again, this time he asked me if I am chatting with my Indonesian friends or on 'all-Indo' social network. I don't lie to him, he's my friend, a good one indeed, so I told him the truth; about me not good at socializing with my own kind, Indonesian. Then he said something that made me feel good and bad at the same time, "ah that is because your English educated am I right in saying so? I know one thing for certain good grades or not with the polite attitude you have and good spelling you can land yourself a really good job when you leave school which requires one to speak English in a foreign country such as yours or a neighbouring one, what do you think?" he said, I was in silence for one minute of awkward moment with myself. I knew one thing for sure, he doesn't know me as good. I'm not good at socializing with them not because I'm english educated, I understand but I don't understand what he was talking about. He told me that I'm polite, I surely wish he's right. I always knew that something is wrong with me, not good at socializing? and with my own kind? I'm telling you, there's something wrong with me. He always saying good things about me, three things he always like about me are, my bang, my english and my attitude. But he knows nothing more than that, I'm not what he said I am, I wish I am..........
