It's just sometimes hard for me to start conversations with my friends (guys and girls). I am fed up with myself for standing in silence near people. How do you people start conversations? It doesnt come naturally to me...

If you notice a bit of crumpet that you'd like to chat with, introduce yourself (you need to overcome your own self-confidence issue here).

Then make a bit of small-talk and casually joke with them about various things. That'll break the ice a bit.

Work from there.

I don't have a problem talking with people. I just say hi and start talking. If it's with a guy I smile and bat my eyelashes a little :)

Alright, with girls look at them in the eye. Don't look at the ground, that is a sign for lack of confidence. To start a conversation I usually just say "Whats up? How is it going?" they usually take it from there.

I say a couple of things, some of which are: hi, hey, what's up, how are you, and many others.

*girls name here*, how's it going?

As in "Sarah, how's it going?" By saying their name first it shows that the person saying that wants to have a connection with you or some crap like that and the how's it going? shows that you have interest in the other person. The same can be accomplished with something like "Julie, looking nice" only less lame

And I too rarely talk (girls like that BTW, it gives you a sense of mysterious-ness that girls really dig)

Really, my friend used to say it all the time, it got annoying actually. And I just made up the "Carlos", it's not my name, nor anyone I know.

New friends or current ones? If you see a girl you don't recognize on the streets, try not to. She might have something better on her mind. If on a bus than it should be okay, as she might be bored. Just talk about the weather or you could always ask where she's going.

With girls, I usually start with something simple, I'll ask how they're doing, what they're doing today, ect. Then we go from there. With guys, it's "Hey, what's up?"

Just bring something up, like if you're in the same class, at school, ask them how they did on a test or an assignment. Then let them talk, and build up on that.

I actually haven't. Usually it's them or someone else that gets me into a conversation. Afterwards, me and the girl usually become friends.

I mostly think of ways of phrasing 'I really badly want you' in funny sounding ways. For both guys and girls.

You start conversations by not thinking about the action and just doing it. Why must you fear a social situation? People say they fear some kind of social circumstance and then have a hard time coming up with a reason why they fear it. Life's too short to be making up personal excuses for not being social.

Does a conversation with a member of the opposite sex have to lead to some kind of intimate relationship? No. Why would it? It is just a simple conversation about something like what you did last weekend or what your favourite movies are. They are just girls, they won't bite... unless you ask them to.

"Hello". I know (well, an educated guess) that there's a good chance you're a nerd, but it really isn't that complicated. Be truthful when talking about yourself, works better than trying to smooth-talk with the ladies.
