Find Shared Values First:
Shared Values are easier to find and relate to when you are meeting new people. Preferences, Habits and Hobbies are a lot more varied, but values like patriotism and familial wellbeing, dating are things that people are biologically wired to enjoy talking about.
Ask Questions of Others:
Asking Questions about potential interests helps the conversation go from debate mode to discovery mode. People love talking about themselves, and to be honest, not many people ask things about other people. Everyone lives in their own little world, breaking the mold is not hard at all, just ask thing about other people.
Small Talk exists for a reason:
Starter conversation has been a thing for centuries. Lighthearted conversation leads to bigger, more deep friendships without scaring away the other party. Learn to make small talk with as many people as you can and you won’t ever be lonely again!
Until Tomorrow,
