Do you have to talk a lot just so that people talk to you?

Question

I'm not that much of a talker I mean I'll say somthing and try to carry on a coversation but I always fail to do that. But a lot of my friends talk to each other and other people and all that and they always seem to keep a conversation going. So whats the secret? Its been freakin me out because last year I could do all that but now this year meaning school year I can't. This year a lot of the kids I talked too stayed back or moved.

Answer 1

It could be that the people you're considering friends now, you just really don't have that much in common with- hence your lack of anything to really keep a conversation with them going. You could try just asking questions about whatever it is that they're talking about, and you may even become interested... but the reality is, it's difficult to talk to people you don't have much in common with. Don't worry, real friends are hard to come by... and it's OK not to be "yackity".

Answer 2

You don't have to talk alot just be yourself.

Answer 3

its true
