How To Talk To Someone New, By Zodiac Sign
The art of communicating was never easy.
pexels It's not easy to strike up a conversation with a stranger. If you're a shy person with a zodiac sign that is more introverted than others, you understand.
Breaking the ice is never easy. It takes a lot of courage to go up to someone and talk to them.
Especially in the day in age of digital connectivity a lot of us have lost the art of talking 101. However, you may also be aware that if someone were to approach you on a topic you're passionate about, chatting is a lot simplier.
With applications like Tinder and bumble it only supports the notion that you don’t have to go up to someone and introduce yourself. Sure there are the safe topics such as asking about the weather.
You can occasionally ask what a person had for dinner last night but talking to someone is super difficult. Also how many people really want to talk about the weather?
People prefer to talk about themselves.
I think we need to go back to basics and really understand what makes human connection. Put down your phones and focus on the person who you're trying to build a relationship with.
Perhaps it's as easy as understanding someone's astrological sign. If you want to know what topics to break the ice with, look further at the list below for each horoscope sign's favorite topic to talk about.
