If ever a person who knows me reads this will probably be surprised since this topic is more focused on my past. I was once a very shy guy and a quiet one. A guy usually seen in the chair waiting for someone to approach me. Luckily, I had changed and matured. I had been thinking about this since back then. How do you usually approach a person and start a topic? What are the things you do? What topics are the best ones to talk about?
I was just really interested to know what you guys have to say about this.

I also have the problem in my life. In general I think we should not talk too private things, especially when you are not very familiar with the talker. Also try to be listener than being a talker. In the world most of people like talking, not listening. So choose being the least part of people and you will be more popular. Last but not least try to have open topic, than yes or no, so people can continue talking.

Hey,
Well firstly you should never talk about private things, just ask general questions or something like that, that will not invade the other persons privacy. Even asking the person their name might be not such a good thing to do, it all depends on the person. Make sure you have a good day, Happy Lotting!!
