Can anyone share their own experiences of talking to new people? Or to people who you've met a few times, maybe exchanged very few words with?
How did you progress the relationship into a friendship, or a close acquaintance, or a romantic relationship?
I'm nervous about talking to people. The sting of many rejections and things having gone wrong in the past, some of it recent lingers in my mind.
It really does depend on how you feel about the person. If you have the ability to reach out to them, I'd just go with what feels right to you in terms of starting a conversation.
I'd suggest not forcing it, and if you feel the interaction is draining you, try and back away.
Hmm, okay, thank you.
