I’m a guy and I suck at getting into relationships.
What are your suggestions?
How do you start conversations?
How do you talk to them in general?
How do I tell them I like them?
Other advice would be great too

I hate to sound like I know precisely what women want but something is I think they like men who can think on their feet.
Men who are quick.
I’ve been called a flatterer but that is not the way.
You can’t just look around the room and blurt out what may be obvious.

Buy yourself some cheap flops and head to your local bookstore.
Then as you’re looking at those Fangoria magazines and you notice a babe checking you out say, “Hello ma’am! Whadaya say we head back to my place and make a few bebes?”

After I started admin’ing a facebook group, I had to learn how to talk to people who 1.) didnt speak english as a first language 2.) were not adults and dont have the best communication skills and 3.) needed diffusing such as arguments.
Just from talking to people from all over the world, I really trained myself to get better at small talk and asking questions. Im also a writer so its my job to fill up dead space. Lol
Basically you cant go wrong with asking people questions. People love to talk about themselves.

I know asking questions isn’t something I’m good at. I’ll ask stupid stuff.
I’m not good at starting conversations either. I’ll say something bland and dumb like “Hey what’s up?”

I feel that I’m really bad at conversation since coming out of psychosis. I have a blank mind, when I try to recall something it takes ages etc.

Im better at talking on the internet. In real life I get tongue-tied all the time. Especially trying to explain something from memory or explain a thought ive had. Concepts are difficult.

I can’t claim that I have much in the way of a dating history, but the best way to strike my interest was to become friendly and slowly get to know each other. I was always worried that I came off as uptight (probably due to nerves around people I’m not familiar with), but when someone got to know me, I could let my personality shine as I become comfortable. I think this can be applicable for anyone regardless of their gender identification or sexual preference.
I like @Montezuma’s suggestion of meeting someone at a library, but that’s probably because I’m a book nerd. Someone who gets a daily dose of Starbucks might be happier meeting in a coffee shop. It depends on your interests.
Just remember- staff is paid to be nice to you, so I’d avoid waitstaff, librarians, baristas, etc, if you are at their place of work.

The girl I’ve been interested in and I have had a friendship for four years. I’m too scared to ask her if she feels the same way.
She has told me she feels safe around me and that she loves talking to me.
