How the fuck do you start conversations

>>39264582
if you have to ask, you shouldnt

OP, tell me more about your current position.

I may have answers for you.

Read the situation if you're autism allows. If it's a good environment a simple "hey what's up" will suffice. If it's not a good environment, and it's stiff and the vibe is not inviting keep that mouth shut. You can follow up with a light question, and a joke response.

If someone talks to me I can kinda keep a conversation going. I cannot start conversations, everything I think of saying sounds stupid.
>>39264614
You're probably right

>>39264582
all I can talk aobut is anime and the jews

Hmm.

It sounds like you are trying and you wqnt to change.

I can help you.

If you want help.

This will take 90 days.

You will have occasional assignments.

We will have to communicate a lot.

If you can put in the work and step outside your comfort zone, it is possible.

Same.
Let's be friends in an original way.

I think you are shitposting because of the reddit spacing but if you are serious I would like to get better at initiating conversations yes.

>>39264582
I know I could probably figure out how to start conversations, but I'm too scared to even try.

>>39264582
Simple. I use my perfect introductory line, which works for making friends every time:

>"Hey I'm anon, wanna be friends?"

>>39267137
>"No, not really"
What then?

>>39264582
Just say hello.

The real trick is getting them to last over 1 second. I haven't made progress on that one yet.

>lean into it; start conversations like uhh hey haha like how are you haha
>you are now in a conversation and their pity will get you in on the ground floor maybe 1/100 times. thats enough to find a friend group pretty quick

This is my real problem. Conversations never last more than a few seconds.
