How To Start A Spontaneous Conversation With Someone

By Matt Fuller

There is no rule book that sets out a list of guidelines on how to strike up a conversation with someone you have never met. (only seen) Our common sense approach and message explains how anyone can do it if you have some self belief.

Our advice on tackling this tricky terrain may at first sound like an obvious approach, but it's about getting a feel for how your advances will be accepted and whether you should continue or back off.

The last thing someone wants is to be approached in a manner that makes them feel uncomfortable, so keeping it simple will increase the odds of a friendly reception. You will be amazed how a simple friendly 'hello' can set up the scene to get to know someone on a deeper level.

When all is said and done, you do need to actually approach this person in order to meet them right? Give yourself the very best chance and introduce yourself in a calm and confident manner, it's important to maintain some eye contact too.

Follow up your introduction by making the person feel good about themselves and telling them how well their shoes match their top, or you love the color of her lipstick.

Why are people so afraid of talking to strangers when romance is the agenda? Place yourself in the some scenario, how would you deal with a situation if someone you had never met before went out of their way to single you out and say hi - if it were me, I'd feel pretty good about it.

Make sure your approaches are done in a non threatening way. For example, don't approach a pretty lady for conversation in a deserted underground shopping center car park - you could end up with a dose of capsicum spray.

If it is your intention to find romance or friendship by approaching strangers, there is certainly a time and place that is appropriate, and think about how your approach could be received, you don't want to come across as a stalker!

Making a comment about something a person obviously places a lot of importance in is a great way to break the ice. Something they are emotionally attached to, for example a tattoo or a piece of jewelry.

Once you master this technique, life as you know it will change forever and doors will start to open for you like never before. - 31991
