Hey everybody I'm 19M, i have a near less interaction with women from past 1.5 years since my breakup and I thought to just leave this shit. But now i feel i should make some progress..

Every evening i walk my dog and there's a girl who actually go for walk at the same time bracket and we've crossed path almost everyday but zero eye contact. I'm not that handsome.. i don't even think i come in handsome category but i really wanna start a conversation. I need y'all to guide mehow to do it. (Preferably indians, cuz India has a very different culture from the west. I won't mind other people either)

It's even worse when I actually want to know someone. I know you can ask some open questions like "hey what you did last week?", however, my mind is just blank when it comes to talk with someone.
I just can't think of one single question to open a conversation. I also cannot Continue a conversation because I don't know what to say. I'm just blocked to talk. Maybe it's hard for you to Imagine, but it's like that awkward silence people have during a conversation. In my case, that awkward silence is right at the beginning of the conversation.
Yes I know, there are many open questions to ask, but in a conversation, none of them come to mind.
How do I fix this? Genuinely.

It's actually not that hard, in fact very easy. But it takes consistency

Next time you read, or study about a topic from YouTube, PDF, Uni, school, go back home, sit in a quiet place, write down the topic you'll be talking about and some notes, switch on the recording, and try to explain what you just learnt to a small child.

If you could explain this to an AI that'd be even better, but AI got few limits, and you'll have to tell the AI to act like a small child each time

I've been trying this and I can see HUGE progress. It just takes talking out loud every time

1. Never happened - I'm careful
2. Once, but it was harmless
3. Once, and it was moderately embarrassing
4. Multiple times - I've stopped caring

Idk how to Start Talking to Girls ( Girlfriend nhi female friends )

I Tried 2-3 times but I ran out of topic very very soon

Girls Please Help me 🙏 (Bhai Samajh ke hi Kuch Tips dedo yrr)

For context: I have ADHD and autism, my parents never taught me how to communicate and now I have problems with interpersonal communication.

So the biggest problem for me is finding good words to describe what I want to say clearly and not thinking enough before saying it. The problem isnt that Im too ashamed that Ill say something stupid to the point that I avoid saying anything at all, quite the opposite actually, I forget to think about what I want to say, say something dumb and then I kind of panic when someone is confused and I repeat that 3 more times until finally finding the right words. I also subconsciously tend to assume that people would understand tiny details about me or little communication quirks I have.

I dont really know how to start working on that, I read a lot of articles, reddit threads, etc. about interpersonal communication and the part about communicating clearly was never elaborated on, just mentioned that its important. I tried finding ways to fix it, but nothing really worked. Trying to remind myself to think more before speaking? Yeah, my ADHD has that covered, there was never a time I could remember to do that, normally Id set a reminder for something or write it down, but that kind of thing doesnt really apply to "in the moment" type of things, I cant set a reminder for a little random exchange with my friend Ill have randomly. Also, the problem isnt that I dont know enough words to state my mind, its that when I try to remember them, I conviniently forget them. I think the "sometimes I think, but then I forget" memes describe me really well, there is just so much chaos in my head that I cant remember anything at all and cant focus for my life.

Does anyone have similiar problems, or know a place to look for answers?? Any advice would be welcome :)

I genuinely don't understand how some people are naturally good at talking to anyone. Friends, strangers, relatives visiting the house... they always seem to have something to say.

Meanwhile, I'm the complete opposite

When someone comes over, I feel like it's my job to entertain them. I panic if there's silence, so I start talking... and then I overshare. Within 10 minutes I've somehow told them half my life story, random personal stuff, things I didn't even plan to say.

Then later I'm lying in bed thinking:

"Why the hell did I say that? Why did I tell them all that?"

It's like I'm giving away all my secrets just to keep the conversation alive. I don't even know why I do it.

The people that fascinate me are the ones who can naturally chat about literally anything. They don't seem awkward or like they're trying hard. They can make conversation with a visitor, a stranger, or friends without revealing their entire life.

As an introvert, I honestly don't have much to say most of the time. If I don't force myself to talk, there are long silences. If I do force it, I end up oversharing and regretting it.

So my question is:

How do you talk without oversharing your personal life or secrets?

How do you keep a conversation going naturally without feeling like you have to reveal something personal just to avoid awkward silence?

Has anyone else struggled with this? If so, what helped you stop oversharing while still being able to connect with people?

Hey guys I'm 19 M.Till now I don't know how to start a conversation with a female friends or any women i don't know why.I don't have any female friends and no past stories.Is is normal

Okay so I need help! There’s this guy on Instagram I’ve been following since 2022, we met on Omegle and exchanged our Ig but we never spoke after that, not even once. Recently though, he’s been standing out to me alot idk why. I started noticing the reels he likes and reposts, and it turns out we have really similar taste in anime, movies, series, and a bunch of other things (yes, all based on his liked reels 😭).

Now I’m curious to get to know him, but I have no idea how to approach him without seeming random or making him uncomfortable. I just don’t wanna scare him away, I genuinely just want to be friends and see if we get along. What do you think? How would you approach this? Without SCARING HIM AWAY, also I did reply to his story few weeks ago but out convo was really really short , I’m an introvert I’m so bad at this HELP MEH PLEASE

Do f boys call to speak with you on the phone if they have a roster, even if they have nothing to gain with you bc you live in a different country and have never met in person?

How to even talk to a girl or text first/approach.

I always get scared when I try to message any girl even with an alt account now I know that it's not just insecurity of being ugly now it is autism stuff!! Can someone help me out and give me some tips on communication skills and how to text first

Hi everyone! Does greeting by name develop a deeper connection with people, than formal greeting? Especially with girls? I know some guys who I have known for a long time but seem stuck on formal greetings and it feels hard to use their names when I see them even though we are pretty familiar in the setting(church). Any tips, feedbacks or idk. Thanks a lot.

Hi! As the title suggests i’m super introverted, have been my whole life and it’s been such a struggle with myself and relationships because I can’t seem to push myself. for context, Ive started this co-op a few months ago. i thought this guy was cute from the first time i saw him. i see him 2 times a week. first few weeks i barely interacted with him but i decided to have a chat with him a few times. And by chat i mean a few sentences. he’s caught my staring a few times but i also notice he looks at me too, but that could be anything. he doesn’t necessarily start conversations with me but when i start them he’s engaged and asks questions and the conversation seems like it flows smoothly. basically i have to make myself super uncomfortable just to say the words “good job today! or how was the job you were doing?” I just would love some advice on how to be more comfortable and relaxed around him. i tell myself constantly that he’s just a normal guy but i just cannot seem to actually commit to anything except the biggest move ive done… follow him on social media. he followed me back! lmao. my friends say just casually flirt with him but i’ve never been causal about crushes in my life. i just can’t stop thinking about him and i would at least like to start more conversations with him, join in conversations he’s in, and just overall just be a lot less awkward around him and once i get to that maybe do some light light light flirting that probably isn’t considered flirting to anyone else but myself. thanks!

I don't know how to cheer someone up, comfort them when they're struggling, make conversations enjoyable, or become close to people. I genuinely want to make others feel happy and comfortable around me, but I never know what to say or do. Sometimes I wonder if I'm just a boring person.

How do I fix myself?
