i have a small problem...................

Well I guess the only answer to your question is reading newspapers and/or watching news everyday... Sometimes reading newspapers can be really very boring but sooner or later, you'll get addicted to it so you'll not face any problem. It'll help you in improving your current general knowledge and so you won't ever be in trouble when your friends ask such questions... Another thing is that you can directly tell them that you don't know and being good friends of yours, its their duty to tell you....

Just tell them that even you don't know much about what they are talking about you find it very interesting and would like to hear more. This makes them feel good and makes you sound like a person willing to learn. If you can ask a question. This is very flattering to the person you are talking to.

it is not tat every one in this world is born genius....so it is not bad tat u dono some answers..but it is good wen u learn from them ..so tat u wont feel embaressed wen u facethe same situation again ...u can also ask them question regarding tat topic so tat the person ll be very pleased to ans to u ...be uch interactive

Hi parthu, I think everyone facing this situation atleast once in their life. but i'll suggest u if dnt know anything about topic then be quite dnt say anything is better OR just say straightly u dnt know anything about the same. as people use to laugh on both the conditions. but it is in ur hand which option u'll choose and when. Thanks a lot. Hope this will help u out.

Hi parthus, I would recommend you to just inform them that you missed that information. You could just go with the discussion by listening to them and be involved by asking questions. Well, we can not really acquire all issues and info across the community and i'm pretty sure your friends or neighbors will understand you also. So it's still best to just tell them the truth that you don't have any idea about it. Happy mylotting. cheers :-)

well at times it beeter to be truthful. thats the only way & solution to get out of most troubles in life. may be they will laugh at you once but you ensure that you will not give them a second chance. try ansd learn something from them. i once encounter the same kind of situation , i pretended as if i kneew the topic,and started repeating the same thing as they were saying. after some days the same topic was brought out to a new friend along with the same previous group. the new friend frankly told that he knew nothing about the matter, then the group asked me to explain the topic to him... i was being so patheic. i felt so embarrassed that day. i didn't knew what to say. my friend understood that i was ignorant about the topic & they toke over. well its a personal experience of mine " BETTER TO BE TRUTHFUL"

I've felt like that before. When I was younger I used to either avoid situations where I felt out of my depth or bluff my way through which usually made me look silly. Nowadays if everyone is talking about something I don't understand, it even happens here sometimes, I take a look at the subject and if I want to know more I will do some research or, as some here have suggested start reading the newspaper daily. I feel no shame in asking though, in my younger years I was too proud to show that I didn't know something. There are some subjects that I don't understand which don't really interest me and that's fine; that's another thing that has come with age not pretending to be anyone but myself.

Hello parthu dont worry this is not usch a typical situation to be worried.you can do just a simple thing ,whenever the people around you are discussing something you dont know any thing about just listen to what they are saying and when they ask you something just say what they said in your own words as if you do agree with what they say.so simple isn't it. happy mylotting

well, i think the best way to do is to tell them you don't know the thing exactly. It is no need to fell embarrassed when you can't answer the question, just tell them the ture. It is good for us when we don't know something. And then you can get much more information about that something from newspaper or internet. Maybe you can tell the people something they don't know next talking. I think this can save your face. The key is to learn more in daily life.
