Ways to Start a Conversation With Anyone
Ways to start a conversation with anyone
Everyone thinks how to start a conversation? Starting a conversation can be so hard sometimes, I had a really hard time for years growing up. One thing I want you to remember is that, 99% of the times, the way that you started that conversation will be forgone in under 1 minute. Now most of you think it’s a bad thing but its actually encouraging, think about it. After the conversation is flowing, people don’t really care how it all started. It’s a clean slate for you to impress whoever you want.
There are five easy ways to start a conversation with anyone:
1) Be in the Moment
A good way to start a conversation is to be spontaneous. Means all of us worry so much about the planning, the introduction, then we really overthink it when we don’t have to. The more you think about it, the more pressure builds up on your head and the harder it gets to go there and talk to someone. One of the best things you can do, if you want to go and talk to a girl, go up to her and talk about the first thing that comes into your mind. It can be a compliment about her dress or her hair, it can be as simple as ‘Hi my name is Zain’. If you are out somewhere, there are a lot of things happening around you both so you can bring that up as well. You can talk about whatever song is playing, the drink in front of her or whatever you see around you. Just don’t overthink as they are most likely to forget what you said within 60 seconds.2) Know What Not to Talk About
There are somethings that should never be talked about, especially in the beginning of the conversation. I mean there are few ways to kill the conversation right when it starts, or maybe before it even starts. Conversation starters should not really be personal, you should not talk about your job or your recent breakup, or that weird rash on your body, that person is literally going to turn around and walk away and you are never going to see them again.A common mistake for guys is asking girls if they are single. Why in the beginning of the conversation, you just going to creep them out if it’s your first question. If you are trying to find out whether or not, she’s single, there are other ways of asking that later in the conversation. For example; you can ask her friends which is usually the best way of doing it but you can also slip it into a joke like ‘your boyfriend must be proud of you’ to see what she said and you can say about anything she talks about, her job, her new apartment. Honestly, even if she said, “I was tired, but I still came outside today”, you say, “your boyfriend must be proud of you” and see what she says.
You know what else you should be talking about right away, YOURSELF. You should answer questions so she gets to know you but talking herself, will be kind of boring so try to know her as much as possible, don’t tell her your whole life story because she probably doesn’t care, point is you just met. This goes for both boys and girls.
3) Look for Similarities
Look for some common grounds. Maybe you drink the same beverage or maybe you guys are walking similar shoes, try to notice anything common to break the ice. If you are actually going to bring something common, you are going to make an instant connection with that person and that is going to give you more things to talk about, and keep the conversation going. To make this a little bit easier, try to open it up with a question but make sure it does not sound like you are interrogating a person.Like, you can go up to them and say, ‘look at us, we are wearing the same sneakers tonight, they are kind of similar, right but I have to say they look more so better on you’. Its kind of like fooling fun at your side but it’s a good idea to break the ice. Don't be Shy.
4) Don’t Worry About Failure
Don’t worry about failure. Getting interacted will hurt her a little bit, its fine especially the first time but it has happened to every single person. It happens to everyone, no matter who you are, how much money you have or how good looking you are. We have to look at it this way, what’s the worst thing that can happen? Maybe the reply will be no, I am not interested or maybe they are completely going to ignore you. Either way, who cares. Getting a NO is not the end of the world, that’s a matter of fact you should get as many no’s early at the night, so you are warmed up, its completely normal.Practice, start conversation with your neighbour, person on the bus, anybody at the convention. The more often you do, the easier it gets. The more NO’s you get, the less they hurt.
5) Body Language
One thing you have to keep in mind before you ever open your mouth and that is to make sure, your body language is positive. Some people get rejection before they even start the conversation and they don’t even realise; it has nothing to do with how they open the conversation. Like or not, people have created their own opinions about you before you even say anything to them. To be honest, you are doing it too, we all do it most of the time without even realising; look at body language, look at posture and we make our own quick assumption. So, you have to use your body language to your own advantage to look attractive and to feel more attractive before a single word comes out of your mouth. That means stand up straight and make sure your shoulders are back and give her full eye contact.
Basically, don’t look like an idiot.
