just like most of ppl’s comments here,I’m not talkative at all and only talk a lot when im around my close friends or family. (or sometimes not even family) but the thing is that i feel no awkward feelings though i stay quiet with my family. one good thing bout me is that, I smile a lot (may be its b/c im a shy type of person) and ppl actually like my smile : ) hehe so I guess I’ll be smiling straigth at the person I wanna talk to, then start saying hi, give the person some compliment first..like…WOW! YOUR HAIR LOOKS GREAT TODAY!!...or in case, you have not seen a person for a long time, I would say..WOW! LOOK AT YOU! YOU GOT SO MJCH PRETTIER!!...sth like that..
I believe that once you have made a nice starting, have built an impressive first impression with the person, the following conversations would just flow…or if not, at least, your smile and compliments allow the person to know that you’re at least ‘friendly’ though not that talkative, he/she might be the one, instead of you, who would find topics to talk about with you. ..
hope this help!
SMILE and BE looking HAPPY + give compliments!!!
