I agree this is the besat way to go

I remember when at a dance as a teenager a fellow I was dancing with asked me as an opening question "Do you come here often" You might like to try that as an opener. I just felt like laughing at the time but it broke the ice.

Initiating conversations with new people can be delightful, even if it can become challenging sometimes, especially in today's world, where sensitivity and respect are so important. A great opening line often depends on the context and the person you're meeting, but one approach is to start with a friendly greeting and then express genuine interest in the other person. For example, you can ask about their hobbies, interests, or what brought them to the current setting. If you're looking for more spontaneous and diverse interactions, you can try to video chat with random people. This can be a good opportunity to practice your conversation skills and connect with people from various backgrounds.

The in depth satisfaction that comes from knowing the art of good conversation can still be consumed by the sight of so delightful souls the quality sought and when found further in stills the depth of respect we all deserve one of The fortunes of life is to discover this deep well of meaning

I made the mistake some years ago when l was on duty for the first time with a female officer watching prisoners. Without thinking, I asked 'how's your sex life?' Graciously she replied, 'o.k. thanks'. I later learnt from another officer that she thought l was coming on to her. Really have to think carefully before asking a question for the first time.

Hi. No I’m not I’m just looking at various ideas for my widening social network

Are you talking about social media or new friends

 

[Happyhawk]

No I just jump right in I’ve got this inclination as I’m heavily involved in the general and varied running of a large social space it just seems to happen and 99% of the time a great success to open people up

The standard answer that my friends and I used was "Only in the mating season".

What’s the standard “ mating. Season “ I need to catch up. lol

When we were asked at the dance "Do you come here often" (which a lot of newcomers used to ask as an opener) My friends and I would answer "Only in the mating season". We got a few mixed looks at that.

It's always been important to respectful and sensitive to others. Not just these days.

I’m happy either way but I’m a lot better on a face to face situation as the stimulation of new conversation can lead to some interesting outcomes

What’s your best mode of intent to bring that person further into The view of more conversation What keeps the mind focused and the eye line on line

Just keep good conversation going. Favourite places they have been to then tell yours.
Favourite foods
Ask all about them , don't talk too much about you unless they ask or after they have told you theirs first.

If it's mashing then conversation should continue with ease. Don't over think it

Yes where the space I’m involved the chat can be social, topical yet there’s a mix of humour The varied visitors reflect the differing realms of questions asked answers given and from there the cut of the talk is anyone’s guess when you throw together all the subjects known to cause the thinking affect. Well you see

Perplexing...this is like a beautifully wrapped mystery present under the Christmas Tree with no name on it! Curious indeed!

 

[Happyhawk]

Got to admit love the way you out that it’s the art, sensation if you will of unwrapping the gift ever so slowly there’s a lot to unwrap layer by layer the nature is unveiled. It can only take 5 mins to consume time at its best to lead to the verbal prize
