6 thoughts on “How to turn small talk into smart conversation”
Was feeling awkward, checking out your blog from the meet n’ greet and seeing a lot of makeup stuff. But then I found this gem! Followed! Totally like the Pearl Harbor comment. I’d probably suggest that a cloud probably is hiding an armed UFO, but either works.
It’s something I’m going to, and subconsciously have been, working on, in social situations. I really hate how unrewarding small talk is, and love personal stories. Going to meet a bunch of online friends in a couple weeks, and soon going to my first screening at a film festival, so I’m going to keep this mentality in mind for sure.
Wow! Please let me know how that film festival goes..sounds fun! Im also working on social situations…im so bad with small talk..its sounds awkward! But i used to immerse myself in books and writing, that I completely left ACTUAL HUMANS out 😮
It went well, although I didn’t have much chance for social interaction. Hanging out with my friend Zack, who is a master at conversation. Went into a couple of places for food and drink. He guesses the man that served us coffee was a dancer, and he was… he encouraged him to get back into it, and asked him for an email if he ever did. Then at a Greek restaurant, asks the waitresses if they’re artists, and they both were. I think he wants to commission one that does inflatable art (http://colettealiman.com) to make an inflatable sofa for him. Fun times. I stick to at least being approachable and friendly.
