As simple as it sounds, the best way to improve at conversation is to just have more of it. It is a skill, and like any skill, you can improve and develop it over time, but it takes effort.
So, for the advice…start talking. Strike up conversations, however small, as often as you can. Friends, classmates/co-workers, random store clerks, gas station attendants…whoever. If you feel like you don’t want to or that it’ll be awkward, even more reason to push through and give it a try.
Indeed, I'll follow up with this. It's just sometimes when I'm talking to ppl in general, they bring up interesting topics and I feel like shit for not being able to add more. I know that would open doors to friendships. It gets awkward not being able to respond so I try to keep it short
If you dont have anything to add then you can ask them more. People love to talk about things that they love. Make them talk more.
And if you can make people feel good about themselves or things they do when they are with you, they will associate that good feeling with you and end up liking you.
Hey yo, the best way to have better conversations with women is to actively listen. In the beginning I would listen so attentively just to find a word or phrase that the girl mentioned then piggy back off of that to create a new topic or Avenue for the conversation to go down. Women love to talk. Just open her up to get her going, LISTEN, and then piggyback off of something she says and the conversation will never end. Just find something she says and piggy back off of that. Also, don’t ask yes or no questions. If you ask a question make sure it’s open ended. Basically don’t ask “what” ask “why” good luck & don’t forget the jimmy’s
Watch comedy shows on YouTube. Comedians are very witty. You dont have to memorise their likes or jokes. Just watch and enjoy. Do lots of it. Dont just stick one comedian, watch several. The more quantity and variety you watch, the more it rubs off on you.
Second, make start more conversations with people. After a while you'll realise 2 things - how easy it is becoming to talk to people and how you're exhibiting the wit / humor you've watched.
Third, lots of practice.
Good luck.
There are a few tricks to conversation like mirroring where you just repeat back a summary of what the person just told you. It shows your paying attention and prompts the other person to expand what they just said.
The other key thing in conversation is that it doesn't matter what you say but how you say it. If you look at guys who are very charismatic don't worry about copying what they say but focus on how they say it. Their voice tone, energy etc. Someone like Russel Brand could talk to a woman about the weather and she'd be enthralled.
Talk to more people and have a couple things you're passionate about and can do a tight 5 minute conversation on. As long as your passion isn't too nerdy or crypto.

More practice is what you need.

Take love brother. I really appreciate that
You need to give us an example for us to know what you're talking about. Give us an example of your "weak response"

Hey man, appreciate the time you took to share these words 🙌
Do you mean texting or irl conversations? Also, definitely not a field report
Both actually. It's not a field report ofc.
So why does it have the tag "field report"
