Great Conversation Starters

1- Ask the other person questions about themselves. The biggest secret to being a good conversationalist is simply allowing other people to talk about themselves.  Why? It's a subject they are familiar with and that they probably feel comfortable discussing. Try these tactics:

  • Ask for his opinion. You could tie it to what's currently happening in the room, current events, or whatever else you may want to discuss.
  • Delve into "life story" topics. Ask where your conversation partner is from, how he grew up, and so on.

 


2- Remember what to avoid. You know the old rule: never talk about religion, politics, money, relationships, family problems, or health problems with people you don't know incredibly well. The risk of saying something offensive is too high, so just stay clear; these are often emotional charged issues as well.


3- Discuss interests and hobbies. People are complex, with different interests, hobbies, likes and dislikes. Discussing your interests and hobbies with other people, and inquiring about theirs is a great way to start and continue a conversation. This is because it is a way to engage in conversation without discussing things such as religion, politics, money, relationships, family problems, health problems, or sex. These topics could make the person you are talking to uncomfortable and may leave them with a bad first impression with you as these are sensitive and controversial topics.

4- Ask about past travel adventures. Ask your conversation partner where he's been. Even if he has never left his hometown, he will likely be happy to talk about where he would want to go.


5- Ask about work. This one can be a little tricky because the conversation could end up sounding like a job interview. Still, if you can handle it carefully and keep it short and sweet, it can lead to an interesting discussion. And don't forget that the person may be studying, retired or "between jobs". 


6- Find out why you are both in the same place. If you've never met him before, there are plenty of unknowns to explore just surrounding why you're both at the same event. 


7- Offer a genuine compliment. Try to make it a compliment that involves something he did rather than something he is. This will allow you to carry the conversation forward by asking him about that skill. If you tell your conversation partner that he has beautiful eyes, he will thank you and the conversation will likely end there. Be sure to remain enthusiastic when you give a compliment so that you come across as sincere.
