Ways to start a conversation – Ask the other person questions about themselves

There’s no better way to start a conversation than ask someone a question about themselves.

Most people love to talk about themselves.  If you ask someone a question about themselves you will most likely not have to do any other talking throughout the rest of the conversation.

And most likely that personal will leave the conversation thinking very highly of you because you cared so much about them and their interests.

They will certainly consider that you are a great conversationalist even though you may have said very little.

These three simple tips are all you need to learn how to start a conversation and keep it going. Not only are the above tips helpful in learning how to start a conversation but they will also work in keeping a conversation flowing.

For example, if the conversation seems to come to an end prematurely ask another question or make another compliment.
