How can I strike a conversation with guys?
Amber writes, “I am a bit too shy and I really don’t know why I’m like that. For example, I go to a social event and I just stand there looking blank. How can I engage in a conversation with guys?”
The key to talking to a stranger is finding an excuse. Last week, I went to a shop and as the girl greeted me, she also yawned. I greeted her back but told her, “You need to get some sleep. Go home.” She smiled and responded, “No, I think I slept enough last night.” I was not expecting it to get that far but I immediately answered back, “Maybe then you need to get some exercise.” She was ready with an answer again, “I did workout at the gym this morning.” Now I knew, she was game because she was also giving other hints of her interest through her body language. “Maybe then you think that you are sleeping well but in reality you are not. You are probably very stressed out and do not even realize it. You probably need a massage and if you like, I would love to give it,” I said jokingly. I couldn’t believe that she gave me her card and said, “Call me and I will give you my address and we can arrange the time.” Guess what? I gave her more than a massage.
I suggest that you initially try to go to events where you know a few people. That way you wouldn’t feel so lost. Then pick one guy you want to talk too and start off by complimenting something that he has — all you need is an excuse to chat. Guys love it when girls praise them. It could be a tee-shirt that says something or a wrist-watch or anything that makes sense in the situation. Once you start the conversation, guys will then take it from there but always have a few questions ready. Nothing personal but about latest movies or restaurants, or if you like, sports. You will be amazed how easy it is.
