#1 Conversation Starters

Always establish Positive Eye Contact first. Then say "HI" and choose your option.

"Sorry, I think you dropped [this/your pen]. (Hand it to her)"

A simple, helpful gesture. It's polite and shows you're observant, which can open the door for a brief exchange.

"(Drop a pen or something small near her) Oh no! (Pick it up) Hey, I'm [your name]."

A classic, slightly clumsy but innocent way to initiate contact. It creates a small moment that you can follow up with an introduction.

"I like your [drawing/doodle]. Are you into art?"

If you notice her creating something, it's a great way to show genuine interest in her hobbies and talents.

"Hey, that's a cool [backpack/phone case]. Where'd you get it?"

Complimenting an accessory is a gentle way to start. It's low-pressure and gives her an easy topic to talk about without feeling put on the spot.

"Excuse me, is this seat taken? (If she says no) Cool, thanks! What's the [book/game] you're working on?"

A polite and direct way to approach. Asking about what she's doing shows interest and gives her a specific and neutral subject to discuss.

"Hey, is your [dog/cat] usually this [energetic/sleepy]? (If she has a pet with her)"

If she has a pet, it's an immediate, easy conversation starter. Most people love talking about their animals.

"That's an awesome [band t-shirt/sports jersey]! Are you a big fan of [band/team]?"

Shows you might have a common interest. People love talking about their passions, and this gives her an open invitation to share hers.

"Man, I'm starving. Is there anywhere good to get [food/a snack] around here?"

Asking for a recommendation is low-stakes and practical. It can easily lead to a discussion about favorite local spots.

Establishing Positive Eye Contact

Overview

When you are young it can seem tough to start a casual conversation with people of the opposite gender, but just like anything, practice makes perfect. The most important thing is that one starts out on the journey. Once you are regularly speaking to girls, your social skills, confidence and experience will improve extremely quickly.

The first goal is to overcome anxiety: Girls are just like boys, but they often like and are interested in different things and topics. Try to know or guess what she likes and talk about that to avoid awkward moments. Try to make the conversation about her first and only secondarily about you and things that interest you.

Teasing her might be tempting, but she might take it personally. So try to act a bit more grown-up when talking to girls your own age. Do not expect your conversations to be perfect, as you will improve over time.

Top Tips

Here are some useful tips that may help you talk to girls as a boy:

• Make eye-contact and greet people. It makes talking easier and opens doors.

• Do try to resist teasing her. Try to act grown-up.

• If you lack courage, start small. Say hi.

• Wait for the right opportunity. Some situations will make it easy or even natural to talk.

• Make eye contact, smile and ask a simple question to start.

Common Problems

Here are some of the potential problems you could face as a boy looking to start conversations with the opposite gender:

• Forcing conversations is easier, but no one likes it. Make eye contact first to make sure she is interested in talking.

• Some girls may be shy and not used to talking to boys.

• Many boys do not quite understand the different interests and priorities that girls have and may need to adjust over time.

• Girls and women alike tend to be more quickly insulted than boys and men. It pays to make sure not to insult her in any way. Even if by accident.

How To Learn

Learning starts with theoretical knowledge. Our tool can give you some easy-to-remember ways to start and carry forward the conversation. However, in order to become a good driver you have to actually drive a car regularly.

Go out there and use the tool to start practicing talking to both boys, girls and adults alike. Each skill carries over to the others. The more you are communicating with people, the better you will get. However, you do need to be honest with yourself about how well you performed in order to improve properly.

Starting out can be extremely hard due to anxiety. If you are too anxious, then start by talking to boys. If you are too anxious for that, then talk to your parents. If you are too anxious for that then stat by talking to your pet. The most important thing is to progress over time. It does not matter where you started learning. It matters only where you end up.

Pros

• Social skills are extremely useful.
• You are able to do something not everyone can.
• An opportunity to learn new perspectives on the world.

Cons

• Some girls may be shy.
• Anxiety can be hard to overcome.
• You have to learn to be more selfless.

Example

1. Make eye contact with a girl that you would like to talk to and smile.

2. If she smiles back, simply say "HI". If she does not or avoids eye contact, it is best to leave her alone.

3. Ask a question related to the situation or something she might care about. Consult the tool if you need ideas.

4. Keep asking questions to keep the conversation going and track her signals. If she ever seems disinterested or uncomfortable, even if she says otherwise, end the conversation casually. It is better to back out than creating awkward moments.

5. End the conversation before it gets boring. End things while things are good to leave a good impression. You will be able to talk again later in most cases.

Conclusion

Overall, learning to talk to people early can make your life a lot easier in the future. And if you start learning early, you can improve extremely quickly. Overcoming anxiety, being more selfless and empathetic can be difficult for some boys, but as long as you keep training, you will eventually improve. Remember that girls are often interested in different topics than boys. Try to talk about the things she cares deeply about and she might open up more quickly. Most of all, do not be afraid to fail. No one can reach perfection without failing along the way.
