I used to be introverted and i started putting myself out there. i started by talking to completely random people online and getting that experience meeting people. it’s a lot easier online when you can have time to think and the physical aspect isn’t there. I’d also recommend getting comfortable with silence. small talk doesn’t have to be a constant conversation, it can be drawn out too! if you need help you can dm me

i enjoy small talk now that i see it as a form of surface level connection to people without an expectation of friendship or anything. the weather is always a classic small talk topic, but i also ask if they have Big Plans coming up. ppl are always excited to talk about Big Plans
