How do I get better at talking to people.?
I've been wondering about this for awhile, and I would like to know how to get better at talking to people. I always had a problem of stuttering and I seem not to have any real experience with communication. I of course, was brought up shy, and this meant that I had no real idea of how to start a ransom conversation. Is there a way to get better at talking to people, knowing what to say, and not having any social anxiety? I really want to get out of it.

I had the same problem, just think to yourself any situation that could happen when you talk to peolpe and just try to over come that. keep it to small talk i suppose, ask a few questions here and there but dont tell about yourself unless they ask, you dont want to come off as self centered and what not. just gradually talk to them now and then, be funny but not the dumb kinda funny, just be you i guess!! haha but with the stuttering thing i had the same problem, with that i would just rehearse what i would say over and over in my head so i knew what i was going to say instead of thinking while i spoke and making myslef stutter. if people can see that you 'THINK' before you"SPEAK' theyll actually be more interested in you and think your intelligent for doing so. just talkj to yourself alot when your alone to get the anxiety away and then work from there. talking out loud will also help your stuttering. well there you go(: hope it helps some what haha
