I don't know if I have to post it in here, but I think so. Can someone give me advice for how you talk to someone you might like? I am extremely shy and somethimes I don't dare to look at someone. Some people told me to go over my ex and I thing that the best way to do that is to meet new people. So please help me... -Iris ️
A lot of times people will tell you to go back to your ex because it will be easier, just remind yourself that easier isnt always better, as for advice on how to talk to him.. Be yourself! trust me it goes much much farther than you can imagine, I receive compliments from people due to my visible self confidence, im not asking you to become a social butterfly, sometimes just outright introducing yourself can do the trick!
Well, my ex is in love with someone else, she told me that when she broke up with me, so going back to her is not really a option i guess. But introducing myself will maybe help me to make contact with other people, i am gonna try that. Really thank you for the tip
If the problem is lightweight then you can practice small talk with elderly or cashiers and then try casual conversations with ppl you don't care that much about. If the problem is heavyweight I'd suggest cognitive-behavioral therapy.
Can you join groups where you share similar interests. For instance if you like drawing, join a cartoon drawing class?
Hi @AdictedToMovie, As others have indicated, it sounds like meeting new people in general might be a good idea, not necessarily with the specific intent of finding a partner, but just to practice talking to people you’re less familiar with. Take the pressure off yourself a little and look at it as making new friends and just meeting people. You’ve been given some suggestions by members above. Maybe start small and work up…say hello to somebody you don’t usually talk to, such as at a school or work, and when you have more confidence, look at other options, such as groups. What feels like a comfortable starting point for you?
Hey, Well I joined a drama group, so their are some people i met and I am gonna take dance lessons, i didn't talk to other people yet but I made a start! -Iris ️
Well I still have a crush on my ex, but I accepted that we are just friends now. And I joined a drama group, so there i met some new people. But I didn't talk to anybody besides that yet. Now my school has a party and other things so I am trying to talk there to other people! Really thank you for your advice ❤️
