Okay context.. Ig its because I barely text new people and have been texting the same few my whole life I really struggle with maintaining conversation with someone new (especially if its an online friend or smth) how do you just move past the awkward stage and what do you even talk about help its sm easier irl but i struggle with it online I keep overthinking that the other person isn't interested in talking and is just forced to continue bc I keep dragging it on sigh
It took me a while to figure this out, but if you ask them questions about themselves, people LOVE to talk about their own interests.
Mostly talking to strangers or people is just faking confidence, and realizing that not everyone is going to shoot you down. And those who do, probably have their own issues.

Just remember embarrassment is fleeting, you will die, and so long as you don't start off extremely or way too personal and also BE KIND, you'll be fine. That's how I ended up talking about Peter Steele's cock with a stranger, so trust me, it works. reply
