Part 1 of 3: Conversation skills

1. Be funny, but don't act like a clown. The class's fun pants are often quite popular, as are others that get people to laugh. Being genuinely funny isn't easy, but it's an important factor that can determine whether people like you. Be funny and go along with other people's jokes. However, don't be joking all the time, because that can get annoying. People can also become bored or frustrated with it.
2. Be energetic and enthusiastic. If you have some level of self-knowledge, you probably know exactly what works for you and what doesn't. However, make sure you always come across as energetic and enthusiastic. Bring this with both your voice and your body and show your confidence.
   • Make sure you talk to people in a lively and pleasant voice. Make sure that your voice is not monotonous, but rather goes up and down and thus shows emotion. (Radio DJs do this too, although imitating radio DJs probably isn't such a good idea.)
     
     
     • Try not to stutter or say "Uh" or "Hm" too often. This is a sign that you are nervous. If you find that you are not getting your words right, try to slow down. When you know exactly what you want to say during a conversation, practice the way you want to convey it beforehand.
     • Men can try lowering their voices, if this sounds natural. Research shows that people with lower voices attract more sexual partners. However, don't try to force this. Rather, stay calm and relaxed and don't force yourself into something that makes you uncomfortable.
   • Simply be yourself. The way to get people to like you is to just be yourself. You can change all kinds of things about yourself, but your personality remains the same. You are who you are. And that's great, because it makes you special in its own way.
