People are different, so it’s needed to know how to deal with different people in order to be sociable.

So I started to watch movies and TV shows I wasn’t used to, I started to read blogs, books, magazines and newspapers that I was not used to, I started going out to places I wasn’t used to and started eating dishes that were new to me.

So I gathered a lot of new experiences that I could comment on people.

The first time I was sociable was in 2009. I was at a cousin’s house and he had some friends over, and I didn’t knew them. They were talking about an indian restaurant they went to.

So I took courage, and tried to project a calm attitude and asked: “Indian food? Is it good? I am looking forward discovering new restaurants”.

So they told me how they liked the restaurant, and I was able to comment about the new restaurants I went and my opinions on its food. We got along pretty well.

So I noticed… trying to meet new things is a way to meet new people. If I hadn’t ate in new restaurants, I would not be able to talk about it with them. I would not even be able to show interest when striking a conversation by ASKING them about the indian restaurant they were talking about.

After it, I tried it more times and ended up that I became more confident in talking to people and even made new friends. 2 months ago
