Do you hear an interesting conversation and would you like to take part in it?

Steps

1. 1 Listen to what it is about and take a moment to insert your opinion on what the conversation is about or ask a question. If you do not know what the conversation is about, but it seems that the conversation is very interesting, ask a question about it directly. * * The question of what the conversation is about can sometimes seem inappropriate and make people want to avoid communicating with you, since you are not part of their circle. Be aware of these boundaries and do not try to interfere with the conversation you overheard.
2. 2 Continue to participate in the conversation as if you are part of this circle, and perhaps the other people will not object to your participation. Most often, it is best to start with a short comment and check the response before continuing.
3. 3 Be careful. If they are discussing a subject that is familiar to you, carefully insert your word. Never interrupt anyone to speak up. If you do not understand what exactly is being discussed, ask someone from the group to explain to you.

Tips

• Before engaging in a conversation, try to identify what it is about. It is best to avoid trying to break into a personal conversation, since it will not last long with you, and you yourself will be considered an extremely intrusive person.
• If you join the speakers without the slightest idea of ​​what they are discussing, do not say anything until you understand what they are talking about.
• Try to read the sign language of the speakers.Before you join, pay attention to whether people are speaking openly or in a subdued tone; if their conversation seems too serious, chances are you should leave them alone. If the group appears to be open, accept the tacit invitation. If the other person is trying to stealthily remove you from the conversation, take this as a hint and conclude that the conversation was initially quite personal.
• If you are familiar with the people between whom there is a conversation, they will accept you in their circle much more willingly. However, if someone even hints slightly that you had better leave, leave without hesitation.

Warnings

• Do not get involved in a personal conversation, otherwise you risk hearing negative feedback from its participants.
• Do not interfere with the conversation again and again, otherwise you will be considered intrusive, and this will turn people against you in future communication.
• Sometimes, even if you enter a conversation in an acceptable way, some of the participants may feel annoyed about it and try to exclude you from the conversation. If so, then this is their problem, and you don't need to waste time trying to keep the conversation going again. It's not worth it.
• The worst communication killer is shyness. Don't be afraid to say or do something stupid; everyone goes through it one way or another. The worst thing you can choose is not to talk at all, even when you get the chance.
