Starting a Conversation With a Man

How can you fight those nervous feelings to help you speak up and talk to him? You don't know him well or at all so how can you keep confident and try conversation with a stranger? Do you struggle for icebreakers and what to say to him? These are all common fears but there are some helpful hints you should try.

Starting conversation with a man can be a little frightening when you are trying to make the best impression but remember he is still just a person. Think of him as an old friend or someone you haven't seen in a long while, what would you say then? You might ask what he's doing as a career, how life is going, any kids, and if he's out celebrating tonight with friends or he just came in to have some fun. If he's watching the game, ask whom he's rooting for, if the game has been a good one so far, and cheer with him. Talk to him during commercials to get his name and something else out of him besides sports talk. Starting conversation with a man is pretty easy with sports and his favorite team.

Ask each other some questions or make a game out of it. Come up with open-ended questions you both answer and discuss in a few sentences. Mention odd things such as having a black belt, you're SCUBA certified, favorite authors, or anything creative. Be honest. Lead the conversation somewhere besides boring and tedious. "What do you do for fun?' is the worst question ever and always has the same answer like "hang out with friends, go to the movies, that sort of thing". If you skydive or go horseback riding then bring that up because it's unique for most unless you live in Wyoming or any of those Midwestern states. Skydiving is impressive to most but don't lie because that bad karma will someday come back and your tall tales will be outed.

This introductory conversation is the perfect time to learn a lot about him. It's a fun conversation to get some information, be casual and laugh. You can easily talk for two hours about one another and find out some interesting facts. Starting conversation with a man is easier than you think with confidence to approach him, engage talk, and be yourself.
