Okay, so my problem is that I can't start conversations. I mean, like when you try to think of something to talk about, there's nothing to talk about! I'm not like too shy I guess... Because I know like what tone to use and crap, but I really don't have anything I can say to start conversations. I don't wanna go up to some random person and say, "hey.. uhm... hi, ummm, what's um up?" Because I mean how friendly is that? NOT VERY. So I guess what I'm looking for here is topics of conversation that are good to talk about with people you don't know.

Well... think of it this way. What would you want someone to talk to you about?
Think of the most popular topics that people discuss. Movies, celebrities, events? If they live nearby, maybe you can talk to them about something that just recently happened... "You know the Smiths just moved out? Do you have any idea who's moving in?" But try to be a bit more interesting than that... Or you can walk up to them with a compliment like "Hey i love your earrings! Did you get them at [posh store]?" But don't top it with too much sugar or you'll seem too fake, though. Good luck~ |
