I mean he will just look at someone and talk to them as if he knew them forever. I am the type of person who only speaks when spoken to. Because my thing is what if they are having a day, what if they dont like talking to strangers and give me the cold shoulder. How do I open and talk to people like my friend

Just be confident and don't think the worst. Be optimistic and open, people usually like optimistic people. But dont try to be someone you're not. Find that inner outgoing side of you.

I don't know if I can help, but I can relate. I am not a big talker myself and by the time I think of something to say..how to say it..the moment seems to be gone..I guess I am slow? I find that if I can just que in here and there, they at least know I am listening. It might take time to see what to talk about not to offend people or to see what things they are interested in? I can understand that. Maybe you are more of an observer in life? Give it a try the more you fail the more you will find out. At first you might fumble a lot, but there are more people in the world and they won't remember as much as you think. Practice by doing? It can be hard to balance, it takes work. I know that I can be passive aggressive so I come on very lite..no one can hear me..or...to strong? Sorry if this makes you more confused, but hopefully helps you think about this situation. :)

You should respect who you friend is but tell him that you do not like some of his actions. The only way to make yout friend stop doing it or minimize his actions is to make him aware of how you feel.

if you are fine with the way you are and it's not hurting anyone then why are you concerned. if that's how he do things then fine that is him what makes you think his way is better than yours. not everyone wants to be approached by a stranger.

you don't have to be like your friend. i'm more like you actually...if you are in a room full of strangers and you are getting a "vibe" that says ppl want to talk then go for it...but otherwise you don't want to embarrass yourself. just my opinion

You probably are not an outgoing person and he is. You are young and will learn social and communication skills as you mature. Good Luck.

i dont talk much either... and i sometimes am afraid to talk to people... sometimes you just know when you should talk to people... you'll get a vibe, when you get it, talk. its simple. i aventually got out of not talking. now i talk to everyone! but im still quiet when i want to be. its ok to be shy.
