How to talk to anyone

I can see where you may feel like you don't want to say too much. There are so many judgemental people out there, so we are inclined to remain quiet over talking. However, I have changed my attitude over the years about this. I found that if I just start off with a sense of humor I tend to understand what a person is like easier. I had to lose my shy attitude when I moved to a new town. How else did I plan on meeting someone to talk to and hang out with? It is boring not being able to talk to someone.

I am too, but that is before! now? I can talk to them without hesitating. I think that you have the same problem with me, being shy to talk because of insecurities?, am I right? just don't mind what they think about you, just believe n your self, ei! besides, they can't do anything about you, and YOU IS YOU!

You need a self esteem boost honey. All you have to do is talk to people like you are not worried about wether they like you are not. If they are going to like you they will and if they are not they won't. I just don't worry about it and you shouldn't either.

I was shy before I started working at my last job. I found out that if you ask the person something about themselves and find out something you have in common with them its so much easier to talk to them. Even if its about their shoes or clothes. I also noticed that once you have kids you talk to just about anyone that will listen. I did come off as being a snob b/c I didn't talk and would just smile and nod alot of times.

You are not a simple animal. you are a social animal. And a social animal could not live alone. He or she tells something about innerself to other, by talking or explaining and exchange of ideas and thought. The discussion on mylot plays the same role of talking and expressing the ideas and thought. You should take keen intrest in discussions at mylot. Try to response as well as you can. Aso try it in your practical life. start a discussion with some fellows or try to response his or her discussion.This will make you courogious and you will improve your talking power.

I can sure understand ur situation coz i was similar to u a couple of years back..but the best thing is,try to be friendly..try to ask them a question or two..im sure they wont mind..try to get involved in the discussions raised..this'll surely help!

I have the same problem when I first meet new people. I don't have any friends and it makes me think that people just don't like for some reason or another. I had been treated badly by kids when I was growing up and by some adults. I am always shy to say something to someone because of that reason. I am afraid they will not like what I have to say to them even if I am nice to them. I try to just hold my head up high and not worry so much anymore about what other people think of me or what I say. We are all the same and none of them are any better than we are. I just speak freely, like I have known them for years, but I do not carry on a long conversation with them.
