i met all of my best friend's homegirls n homeboys, and they were pretty cool. the homegirls kept telling me i was quiet, n the guys said that too. usually, with my friends, i'm really talkative, but for some reason, with them im really shy. what are some things i can talk about with them? like what can i say to them? how do i start a conversation n keep one going? its so weird cos i feel so awkward with them.
PrettyLady16 answered Saturday June 23 2007, 1:27 am: it's completely understandable to be shy the first time meeting new people. And in time they will become good friends with you and your talkative side will most come out.. They need to be patient until you're comfortable. Try to relax and keep things cool. I understand akwardness just as every one else. And you definitely have one thing in common.. which is your best friend so you could talk about memories with her and ask her friends what they enjoy doing the most. Movies of course which is always good schools and football teams if you're in to sports. Once any sport is mentioned my friends go crazy and have tons of things to talk about. So maybe that would work for you. plan things out next time that might help. To keep one going pick a topic you thing you are most comfortable with and can talk about for a while.
:] I honestly know you will become more comfortable with them. good luck with the conversations. be confident. [ PrettyLady16's advice column | Ask PrettyLady16 A Question ]
