Answer 1

Study books on communication, interpersonal skills, and human psychology at your local library.

Answer 2

Make a point of really listening to other people and how they communicate to one another. Do this everywhere you go and then you'll discover some good techniques that you can use too. Also, in any conversation it is best to be a good listener and show an interest in the other person's conversation. You don't have to say much yourself. Just be friendly and interested in what they have to say. Ask them questions about theirselves. If you still want some more tips look for a good book on conversation or communication.

Answer 3

there are people out there who feel just like you do and if you keep that in mind it helps. everyone wants to be made to feel at ease. instead of how you feel.try doing just the opposite and pretending everyone is just as shy or insecure as you are and it is your goal to make them feel as comfortable as you would want some one to make you feel. everyone wants to feel affirmed and the best way to do that is to listen. ask questions. especially questions that don't require a yes or no answer, so that they are the ones talking. open ended questions. and then ask another question about something they have answered but do not try to out do their experience with your own, or one up their story. don't judge or criticize. just listen compassionately. what i have found is that people really need some one to cheer them on in life no matter how little or big a situation they are going through. honesty and humility are very attractive to me. a good sense of humor can take you a long way. even if you could take one of the times when you were embarrassed or embarrassed somebody and were able to laugh about it later, that might be a wonderful thing to put early in a conversation with someone new then if something like that happened again you would probably both laugh about it.

Answer 4

Instead of focusing on your own internal processes, and what the other person thinks of you (which creates self-consciousness) try your best to focus on them. Pretend you're a newsreporter and you have to find out as much information from the other person as possible; ask questions to get someone else to talk. Good communicators are able to get others to talk about themselves. People will appreciate you taking the interest in them

Answer 5

I read this great article, practiced it a few times, and it works!
You concentrate more on asking other people questions, then being a really good listener. So far, it's worked for me.

Answer 6

Your public opinion of yourself is !...The Cursed...!
that just about explains everything. Try looking at yourself from a positive perspective and don't worry too much about saying the right thing, just be yourself.

... and don't forget to smile!

Answer 7

same problem for me
being myself always ends up with me saying nothing
The way i see it you need something to talk about that interests both people talking and you need to know something about it.
Like if you wanted to talk about movies you would have to have watched some movies that came out recently.
I might be wrong I still don't communicate very well :\

Answer 8

just play off of what they are saying, or how they act, or seem to feel about you. talk about generic things such as the weather and news and just be confident and be yourself and dont come on too strong or too shy.

Answer 9

just be youself. even if you dont realize it your probably trying to impress the person you are talking to but that can cause too much thought and cause you to trip over your words and embarass yourself...relax!
