[BlockPapi]

kulang na kulang ako ng skill na 'to

Not to brag, but yes, I am very good at small talk. I think the key is to look around you and inside your mind. There are so MANY things to talk about. Ask questions, tell a story about yourself, relate something to the situation you are in. I can talk to most any person. If they are hesitant to talk back to me it makes it even more exciting to try to get the person to respond to me.

only up to a certain period of time...

 

when i get tired talking... i fold.

[bilyarcity]

ok lang pero i rarely initiate small talk... i sometimes like to keep to myself unless i am really bored or frustrated..

[jlx]

most of the time yes. i'm fairly talkative. make that VERY talkative. given that everything is normal then you can throw me anywhere anytime and i can usually find something to talk about with that person. but also give that the other person is normal and not some major KJ:D

i normally am good at small talk. but there are just certain situations when it seems awkward to even engage in small talk.

 

for instance, i once accompanied a friend to his clinical psychologist ( he was under a lot of stress lately) and since i had no business inside the doctor's office, i sat in the waiting room. the next patient came in and sat beside me. which made me wonder: how do you make small talk inside a psychologist's office? you can't say something like " anong sakit mo? bipolar? ay talaga? yung friend ko naman, schizo".

[lite_blue]

it depends sa mood ko.. there are times i initiate there are times naman hi hello lang.. but kung crush ko yon.. naku baka big talk!

I don't do small talk. I engage in colloquy.

[ButtChicKick]

Nope, not good at it. Some would find me rather boring.

 

 

 

P.S.

depends on my mood

Easier said than done...but I think the key to small talk is to make him/her comfotable enough to do most of the talking. Try to come off genuinely interested in what he/she has to say. I think people would prefer to talk than listen and knowing how to create a situation where they feel they have the liberty to yap away is a skill one must possess to engage in successful small talk.

Modesty aside, I will say Yes. I am good with small talks.

[emorocker]

no I'm not.

 

Magaling lang akong makigatong sa mga naguusap.
