If you’re genuine, you listen closely not just because ‘you want to make the person feel important’, but because you realize that they ARE important, and therefore you are genuinely curious and interested.

You've been reading "How to win friends and influence people" - Dale Carnegie?? You're correct brother. I'm subscribing and liking all new videos from now on. You've given me good value.

This advice is practical, and real. People need practice it more, especially after the pandemic. It's great that you touched on just saying, "Hello" to someone, as that opens the door for conversation, and metaphorically gives permission to speak.

Exactly, so many people nowadays think that speaking to a stranger is weird, but if that’s the case how are we meant to meet people and form relationships.

@@jameswa3366 you can meet people during mutual activities, like sports or some kind of hobby group. That's a more natural way to meet people than just trawling for friends at the bus stop until somebody finally adds you on Discord. The gym is a grey zone though, it may or may not be appropriate to approach people at the gym. Some people like to talk to the person beside them while they're on a bike or a treadmill, but personally I get mildly annoyed whenever somebody interrupts my sets, because I don't need any new friends and I'm only at the gym to get beefy.

I think I listen a lot and also ask questions, but that's all I do and I've noticed this pattern in me. I only ask questions and barely have opinions or something personal to share or add to the conversation. Acknowledging people and saying hello is something that can help me though.

I feel you bro. It’s important to ask questions but also provide personal inputs so the other person can get to know you too. It’s just about balance.

You're totally right, though my problem could probably be that I'm a person who doesn't know what to talk about.

That’s a very common issue many people face mate, so you’re not alone! The key is to be present in the moment which you can learn through meditation. It’s also important to not think too hard about what to say, just let the conversation play out naturally and improvise. The more you do it the easier it will become.

I think this is good advice for everyone but specially to autistic people, saying hello specifically, you need to force yourself to be social and that is a good starter. As a constructive criticism perhaps you could put text on the screen showing which tip you are talking about currently.

I found that when I was alive, nobody wanted anything to do with me. But after I got crucified, I had an army of followers. My number one tip for anyone looking to increase their social standing: go up on the cross for the sins of mankind, they'll appreciate it.
