Some of us
feel awkward in social situations. Every opportunity to meet new people makes
us sweat, blush and look away. When we fancy a new person and want to approach
them, we have to break the ice first. It means we have to say or do something,
but what can we do? There are a few things that might help us in such
situations.
We look
better, friendlier, when we smile. When we smile, nothing can go wrong! A
smiling person comes across as an optimistic and positive person; it feels good
to be in the company of an optimist.
We
shouldn’t be boring and should talk of the things we are interested in. It
would be a good idea to listen to other people, let them think that they are
smart and interesting. Let’s remember that other people may be just as shy as
we are. If we make a habit of talking to strangers and we shall soon get used
to dealing with new people – it’s well worth the effort.
