Some of these are really good, my problem is that many times i forget these when I'm in conversation, how do you guys remember these?

[mojtabamaali]

I am generally a good conversationalist, but sometimes I run out of subjects to converse... Thank you for providing these conversation starters.

[alondraceja]

I am seriously so thankful for you! I’m working on getting myself back after years of battling internal insecurities 😍

[jenniferdalton]

I want to thank you for your tips about conversation starters. I used to be an extrovert. As I have grown older, it seems I have be one more introvert which has resulted in being closed off but longing for connection. It is nice to have guidance for topics to talk about because everyday topics can be limited and lacking. Thank you!

Some of those seem really vague and broad. i can see those questions being more suitable with someone i'm somewhat familiar with like a co-worker, an associate, a neighbor, but with a stranger or someone i'm trying to date, no way. me, personally, i'd get annoyed real fast. i understand conversation shouldn't be a "job interview", but i don't think there's anything wrong with the generic questions as long as you can give back. That's the real art.

That's much more substantial than i expected a 10-minute video would go. Thanks, V!

I found you back in September 2018 because I needed help in a new social situation and it helped me soooo much. Now I am needing help with dealing with this other parent at school. I dont know if this is part of your scope, but I cant handle this one parent who thinks her kid is perfect, yet I see what he is *actually* like.... she's so negative and she makes me feel on edge. She's my ambivalent relationship. I have to see her everyday and talk to her but I hate it.

Watching this I found out I am naturally good at this, it’s what I do. ❤️💕

I LOVE this channel! It provides a huge amount of useful information. Thanks Vanessa for such amazing tips

One of my faves is asking someone about what they're doing/holding. I love being asked that because it shows that the person takes interest in something I chose to partake in. On the flip side I get the best reactions from people when I ask that. The key is to be genuine and sincere about it.

Love this but whenever someone I just met asks me what I’m doing that weekend I always feel like they’re going to try to invite themselves lol

[bradfl]

Thanks Vanessa. These are great starters! I like the months ones.

[robertspencer]

I'm trying to figure out what else to call a, "personal passion project". I love that it's about something both personal and bigger than a passing interest. I just need a term that suits me/ the people I approach better. 🤔

[benergyk]

You just nailed these down VVE. You go girl. This is real. Keep it up girl.

Restaurants, another good one. Also helps to find a good new place you've never heard of.

[daanbanaan]

thank you for these tips. Many times i wanted to talk with someone but i just didnt know how to start the conversation. So instead i would say nothing and hoping the other person started the converstation (most of the time they didnt). But im going to use these tips in my life and hopefully getting better at starting a conversation and keep the conversation going. Maybe make someone friends
