BAM. Instant conversation. -- Posted by PreppyPeyton at 8:20 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Jump in their conversation. -- Posted by EnticingMind at 8:20 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Hi. That one is golden to start a conversation. Try to get onto the topic of music. -- Posted by Tasbard at 8:21 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Give someone a compliment. Not a creepy one. "Where'd you get that shirt? I love that band." -- Posted by ego1 at 8:23 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 just be confident i guess hey? and yeah jump in -- Posted by medjai at 8:25 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Alright I'm going to give you something good. Remember in the future for all your relationship needs, I'm the man to come to. You better not be a coward and not do this, because it does work. Call HER. When she says hello, say "hello" back, repeat like three times in different tones of voice, then laugh and ask her, "Do you know why no one ever catches leprechauns?" "No why doesn't anyone catch leprechauns?" "Because they're actually six feet tall, everyone just assumes they're tiny, so they never find them." When I've done this, I've always been very drunk, which adds to the effect, because I'm completely serious, but also drunk, so she is less likely to take me seriously. This will start a conversation. This is real advice, and not a joke to make fun of you, if you use this and deliver it well, it will start a good conversation. Good luck. -- Posted by missarissa at 8:27 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 heres a few: hows your dayy going?? whats your plans for todayy?? what do you gonna do over the weekend?? seen any good movies lately? stuff like that, theres usually follow up questions you can ask after those, so no pressure : ) *~ ~* -- Posted by runthespread at 8:29 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 It is hard. Open ended questions about something general maybe so you get a better sense about them, it buys you more time. -- Posted by rileyy at 8:29 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 ask a open ended question .... for example 'do you come here often' -- Posted by ego1 at 8:33 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Quote: from medjai at 8:25 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Alright I'm going to give you something good.
