The Best Way To Start A Conversation: Learn To Approach Anyone
Most people make a really big deal out of talking to someone they are attracted to.
They get nervous when even imagining talking to them, get flustered, even start to feel pain inside just because they are too nervous to just go up to them and have a conversation.
That being said, think about what you would want someone to be like when they approach you.
Would you want them to be calculated, coming to you with a good, rehearsed pick-up line, or would you want them to be shy, cowardly and barely able to stammer out a word?
Or, just maybe, would you like them to treat you like a friend? Would you want them to just come up to you, smile, and start a random conversation as they would with any friend of theirs?
There is a reason we like our friends and a reason we approach them in the ways we do; that reason is that all of us want to have fun.
We surround ourselves with people that make us feel good and people that bring us joy.
Keep that in the back of your mind and then approach that attractive person like you would a great friend that you haven’t seen in years.
The trick is not to treat them any different than a really, really good friend.
