COMMUNICATION: How To Flirt, Start Conversations And Keep Them Going? How to Make Enticing Conversations | 页面 4

3. A SAFE WAY TO OPEN A CONVERSATION IS ASKING A GENERAL QUESTION
THAT IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THE ENVIRONMENT WHERE YOU ARE, OR
MAKING A NEUTRAL STATEMENT AND END BY ASKING THE OTHER PERSON’S
OPINION: Hi, what’s up? Hi, lovely day, isn’t it? Hi, how do you like the weather today?
Bit crowded here, isn’t it? Not much lively here tonight, eh? Hi, how do you like the
band? Are you also waiting for the bus to … Looks like the train is going to be late again.
Nice music, isn’t it? Shopping time again? Sigh … I shall be glad when this week is over!
And you? --- You can smoothen the approach with a neutral pre-opening: Sorry, do you
have a light for my cigarette? Sorry, can you tell me what time it is? - A simple “yes” or
“no” need not be a bad sign, but the longer and more personal the answer, the easier it
will be to continue the conversation and the better your chances are. The best answer
you can expect is personal, informative and ending with a question.
