How To Talk To People

But CONTEXT is so important. Having a clear purpose or shared setting gives you a starting point, a "hook" as marigold calls it. 

 

 

This is so true. I always approach people with small dogs because I think they're absolutely adorable. Everyone is always very happy to talk about their pet and on a few occasions I've struck up 10 minute conversations. Doing this in a vacation town will give you the best experience because people on vacation, especially at the beach, are just naturally relaxed and happy. 

 

When we go to Barnes and Noble, my fiance always ends up in brief conversations with people. It's happened to me too. Just think, if you're looking at the Christian books or the Classics you're likely standing next to someone who has the same interests.
