Re: Tips on making/starting small talk?

[nyxelestia]

I'll definitely have to try these and keep these in mind. Thank you!

(While the "I've always wanted to travel to..." thing sounds really good, I also worry that when I'm dealing with people from smaller, less-well-known, or "boring" places like Midwestern states, I'm going to come off as too blatantly lying when we're in one of the world's most famous cities and tourist destinations. Thoughts on if I should go for it anyway, or just try something else in these situations?)

And don't worry, I'm really not an upbeat or positive person. This tended to be really helpful in my previous work environment of corralling twitchy kids or teenagers into sitting down long enough to tutor them - deadpan works really well in that situation - but it's not so helpful here.

Hrmmmm....well, even the most boring midwest state has some gorgeous scenery or whatnot. But, yeah, i get your dilemma. Unless you want to research things about other states so you have some handy trivia, you could just stick with the 'what's your favorite thing/have you seen this thing/how are you enjoying your visit' kind of talk.

And, like i said - people love to talk about themselves, so a 'oh, you're from blah blah, what's that like?' kind of question always goes over well. You can pretend to be the 'never set foot outside my own neighborhood, what's the wide world like, you globe-trotter you!' person.

Glad any of this helped - for whatever weird reason, despite my personal hate-field and general dislike of most other humans, i'm *good* at small talk. I credit my mother, who could always find something encouraging and/or kind to say.
