Every group chat seems to die the moment I send 1-2 texts there. Every single one. Old, new, offline friends, online friends, everywhere. What's going on? Are my jokes bad? Have you ever experienced this? If yes, what was the issue you found out?

I'm going to be honest and try not to be rude. This is only my observation from my perspective and may be wildly wrong. I looked through your comment history. You seem to be polite and communicative. That's not a bad thing. However, your comments don't seem very funny or interesting to me. I communicate through humor. I understand that it is subjective, but I'm not often in chats or conversations that awkwardly die out.

Show some more of your personality in what you say. Compliment others. Leave them with questions. Do you think maybe the answer to your question isn't what you are saying, it's how you are saying it?

Tough but honest advice. I can relate to needing this advice but I've come to accept who I am. People just like sincerity, too. Organic, not shoehorned comments. No compliment fishing, etc... The group you're chatting with also just may not be your kind of people; you just may not have realized it yet.

Alternatively chat groups do spontaneously die and you may only be consciously aware when it's you who commented last; but you may not be so aware of the chat groups that died with someone else's comments.
