One tip that I got that I've always found helpful is to make confirming statements or questions. For example, if someone tells you a story, in a pause, you say something like, "So you were upset because they wouldn't listen." And they'll usually go "Yes! Exactly!" and then go on with their story, usually with renewed happiness and energy, b/c they feel heard and understood. It helps with active listening, and I feel rewarded when they're like "yes, you get me!" Plus, usually, most decent people will want to return the favor and will ask questions about yourself. Invest in them first and they will invest in you.

As an introvert this trick helps aloooooot. All i do is listening and sometimes repeating what they said as a form of question and they confirm to me and keep on talking and i prefer keep listening #However, when I feel comfortable with someone I open up to start my own conversation and subject ( although im an introvert the first Method of just listening and confirming to the person talking to me helped me learn how to build my own conversation)

Can someone tell me what to do if the girl don't want or like to share any story or problems with me? How to make her believe that I am a good listener?

[@Rosula_D]

Wow, the "here I am" versus "there you are" is such an easy way to understand this! It really showcases the energy some people carry.

[@JamilaMusayeva]

Absolutely ☺️

[@LV-bk4it]

I like that very much, too.

[@NicoleCB]

I never liked small talk. But now that I know that it's an opportunity to get to understand a person's conversational style, it makes so much sense to me, and I can't wait to have a small talk now. Also I'm one of those people that kills the momentum of a conversation by letting people know that I've already seen or heard what they are saying. Now I know better! Thank you so much, Ms. Jamila!

[@jukeldups]

German here: I totally agree with everything you've said, especially about culture. We in Germany don't enjoy empty talk and I often get very confused if not frustrated by exchange students from different cultures. When I get asked how I am, I answer honestly, it isn't just an empty phrase in Germany. People from the US for example tend to be a bit taken back by this honest answer and don't know how to continue the conversation. Mind you, I'm not talking about any serious or personal problems, but I'll answer with my honest feelings. I even experienced that the person asking me was obviously not interested in an answer - any answer. That was very rude. I'm not the best at small talk, but if I ask someone a question, I look at them and acknoledge their answer. Especially since I was the one initiating the conversation in that situation.

[@JamilaMusayeva]

Thank you for sharing this!

[@Maremare680]

Totally agreed

[@olenkaha8690]

So so true!! Couldn’t agree more👌🏼 Indeed, many persons from Anglo speaking countries don‘t listen to the answer of „how are you“, so that I even stopped answering and just keep on going with the next part of conversation 🙄

[@VivPhotography]

I've generally answered honestly, too, but I'm wondering if that's because I'm a first-generation American and my parents' eastern European culture has influenced me.

[@srisification]

I have spent a lot of time with Germans and initially I thought they were too direct and straightforward. Which of course is a good thing but sometimes in a social setting we are required to have a light conversation and when talking to a German, you better prepare yourself for some harsh truth right away. I find that pretty endearing now, I like their honesty and not the need to sugarcoat everything. It is not always the most appropriate thing but it’s very authentic

[@bernadettemarayag1868]

Thank you Jamila for this video. As an 18-year-old lady, I want to level up my conversation skills and your video came perfectly on time. And I remember this quote from the book that I read by Dale Carnegie, "to be interesting is to be interested."

[@cesardelrio9326]

Really appreciated your video, thank you! I find "Being interested, rather than interesting" is really key. I see small talk as a way to establish a connection with someone--whether we end up getting into a deeper conversation or not. And I try to establish this connection is by sending love to the other person. This love allows me to be interested, find appropriate topics or questions to get started with, and it all goes from there. Maybe I'll get some love back, and then we may have the beginnings of a lasting bond and friendship with the person.

[@Lisa-sp5if]

Thank you for this! One thing that we have noticed in our lives, my husband and I, at almost 59 years old, is that most people don’t know how to ask questions. We find it very sad that people typically only want to talk about themselves and it never even occurs to them to ask questions of the other person. If you are shy or introverted or want to start out a conversation really well, ask questions! It shows the person that you’re interested in them, and then you can respond off things that they answer. And then pray they will be other-centered enough to ask you a question too! We think this is now a lost art… But we press on , hoping to show others by just doing!

[@LV-bk4it]

Very important topic. My husband is a social extrovert who takes over conversations; he's Australian, and very funny with his stories, but doesn't allow anyone else to tell theirs. I can't get a word in edgewise - he even interrupts people with another of his stories. I see their frustration because I feel it myself - most of the time I don't even bother sharing anything with him because he doesn't listen or just talks over me. I try to be an active listener with people but I'm amazed whenever anyone actually listens to me or asks me questions.

[@JamilaMusayeva]

A good trick to apply is even when he interrupts continue talking. He will stop eventually.

[@KD-up3sz]

That's frustrating and disheartening. I dated a guy like that. He would go on and on while I listened, and when I finally wanted to share something important, he couldn't reciprocate and give me the same attention. I would be like you and shut down.

[@ZionRV]

I have known some Australians that take the stage, unfortunately

[@genxx2724]

Talk to him about it and then have a signal when he does it to other people. Arnold Schwarzenegger had a handler who stood behind him when he greeted people and gave his upper arm two squeezes when it was time to move on to the next person. Sal Maniscalco did a comedy skit about it. It’s on KZbin. You could give two squeezes when your husband needs to stop and take an interest in what the other person has to say.

[@shirleyann3471]

You have just described my husband. We are also Australian, so maybe it is an Aussie male trend. When I am talking with my husband he will walk away before I have finished speaking. Feel upset that he cannot spare two minutes to let me finish.

[@ashleymarie7731]

This was so helpful, thankyou! I am American but I struggle very much with small talk, I grew up where the only conversations you have with people are knowledgeable and deep. I struggle with making light conversation on items or hobbies etc. I am more likely to analyze people and behavior or history and speak on that. I see now this is most likely very off putting to the majority and might be why I fail to make friendships. Thank you again!

[@TheEmaile]

A year later, but I’m exactly the same! It’s good to hear this reflection because I’m also the best listener, but never feel the desire, or know-how to talk about myself, which I’m realizing impedes my ability to form connections with people outside of my good friends and family.

Hi, Jamila. I think most of us love people who are interested in us rather than themselves in the context of small talk. I also really love your choice of colour in the setting in this particular video. The colour of your lipstick compliments the shade of the hydrangea and your dress very beautifully. You look great.Thank you for this resourceful video❤

[@sonerithageises4441]

"There you are", something I'll definitely strive for in my daily interactions. Because nowadays everyone is more interested in what you have to offor instead of who you are. And personally, I would like to have conversations where they are the interest and not me.

[@JamilaMusayeva]

That is an interesting standpoint ☺️

[@ameliefayet]

Thank you Jamila for what you teach us. It is universal skills, you know how to explain clearly how it differs fromage one culture to another. Small talk is rather difficult for me, I fear to be intrusive or not ask the right questions. But it is a real pleasure when I meet people who show me. For instance I am now in Brittany in France, in that region the weather is constantly changing. People are commenting what they see, when they are going outside, what they wear etc. It helps them show a little bit of themselves. I love it. 🙂

[@JamilaMusayeva]

That is exactly right ☺️

[@usernamedunno7784]

Thank you for this. I especially enjoyed learning the purpose of small talk and how to "volley". I would caution against using someone's name too often, though. I was in a conversation with an acquaintance, and she used my name four or five times during a 10-minute timespan. Each time she said my name, it felt as if she was poking me with her finger. It was irritating. My name's a spice, not the main course, lol!

[@JamilaMusayeva]

There should be a middle ground in everything we do that includes using the name.

[@julieb750]

Different ethnic groups and regions in America have their own rules for small talk. As a New Yorker, I have to navigate so many because typically, everyone is from somewhere else. I’ve found that for people born in the U.S., their propensity for and style of small talk can reflect both their ethnic background and the city/state in which they reside. And then immigrants and visitors have their own differences. I feel like participating in small talk, especially in NYC, requires a sixth sense.

Absolutely agree with you on that ☺️

As a north african, I absolutely agree with the cultural differences, small talks are so important in here and you will probably have it with everyone, the waiter in a restaurant, cashier in a shop, really everyone. And the funny thing is that when we say hi, we'll start asking how are you doing in 3 different ways one after one and the one you're talking to will have to answer in a similar way with questions and not really giving the answer. after that you'd start talking about something and then only you'd ask how are you doing truly and you'll get an elaborated answer

[@Mychannel76707]

With me the first question people ask is “where are you from” which for me is a very intrusive question. People have their biases about cultures or nationalities, therefore asking about your nationality right away is inappropriate. Unfortunately, I’m asked this question every single day no matter where I go to. it is not a curiosity question as many people think. It goes deep down to categorize an individual. I can be from any culture but it doesn’t mean I need to be put in a box based on where I’m from right in the beginning of conversation.

[@Blueisawesome62984]

I get asked this question ALL the time and I honestly hate it. I know they mean to ask what my nationality is because you don’t see a lot of people who look like me in my area or working in the job I work at. So I always hit them with “I’m from California” so they look at me in shock😂 i even had someone come up to me without greeting me, he started naming a bunch of different countries and I was like 🤨 until he asked where I was from🤦‍♀️

[@nmcclanahan969]

I agree, it is a rude question. Apparently, even the cashiers at the grocery store can't ring my items if they don't know where am I originally from. So I had to learn how to dodge that question without being rude. These days, I just say that although I believe they want to be friendly, I consider the question a little too personal and I'd rather not share my origins with them, but we can talk about the items I picked from the store if they're interested in having a conversation with me. Usually, they don't want to continue, so that is a good way for both parties to leave the situation with their dignity intact.😄

[@Mina-hm2og]

I get what you are trying to say, but I am a bit awkward in conversations and if we met I might ask that just as a conversation opening and not to categorize you or insult you/insinuate anything,and I believe that goes for some of the people you meet.

[@Mychannel76707]

@@Mina-hm2og Why do you want to open conversation with such question? What does it give you? There are so many other ways to start conversation other than to ask a sensitive question about national of origin that actually is the most sensitive question that goes in the same category if you ask about race. Maybe you have never thought about it but this is why I wrote this comment to make people aware to NOT start a conversation by asking about the national of origin.

[@lilu2830]

I get what u mean. That is true about a lot of ppl having their biases about certain cultures. Not cool when ppl do that and keep one in the same box, especially when I am a multifaceted individual lol. I get asked that a lot, too. Sometimes ppl ask me that to see what ethnicity I am or just as one of those few starting questions just as general conversation... especially in my Mexican culture, I am realizing that rn, that they ask that a lot to each other and then proceed to talk about where they are from and their towns and growing up and then the conversation stems from there. So for a situation like that and other ppl, like me, might ask that question as a way to connect to someone if I can't think of anything else, bcus I can be awkward if I blank on what to say, so I guess I specifically may have been conditioned from my Mexican culture that that is the thing to ask, so not to categorize and put u in a box, but to find something to connect on. Like I see ur 1st name sounds very pretty and ethnic and ur last name as well. So if u introduce ur name to someone, my mind initially goes to thinking 'ooo that is a pretty name, sounds ethnic, I wonder what ethnicity she is, to get a name like that?' Like that is just where my mind naturally goes and I think ur name sounds cool. Now, if someone is asking u "where are you from?" online, I'm guessing after they see ur last name, too. So just for the ones that think like me or approach conversations like me ofc, might wonder (bcus of ur last name) if ur also latina/hispanic or italian? For me, just bcus it's the 1st thing I see here, and the 1st easiest and obvious (to me) to find some common ground (if I don't know anything else about u) to then stem the conversation further from there. Yeah, I can only speak for latinos/hispanics, that we like to find each other. It's just like "Ayeee, u latino/hispanic too?? Ayeee, wassuhp!" Bam, immediate connection, and feeling of comfort. Yeah, that is the best I know how to describe why some ppl, latinos/hispanics, and specifically mexicans might ask u that. I will take what u said here into consideration, the next time I want to start with asking that or as my 3rd question to someone who seems like they could be latino/hispanic. :)

[@mdillard881]

Thanks for these tips. I especially like your tip to keep it light. I messed this up recently and still regret it. I have found in business on Zoom or Team style remote meetings we discuss where we are calling from. This leads to the others saying if they traveled there or asking what is the weather. The others may say if they have done business near that location or ask about our sports teams. We also discuss pets as we may have to apologize for a barking dog or fussy cat.

I would love if you could do a video of how to eat a certain food. I mean there are so many different types of food but not many know how they are eaten. Eg. Foccaccia bread. It would be nice if you could do a video on food or dishes that are famous all around the globe.

Saying hello is so difficult for me😭 I just feel so vulnerable and am afraid of being ignored. It’s a deep problem I need therapy for but even having to approach that gives me so much anxiety 😢

Hi! Ive just found your channel and I love it I have a question though: how do you deal with small talkers who DO kill the conversation, overshare trauma, or another faux Pas that really makes it difficult to continue. How do you swiftly change the conversation, EXIT the conversation, or prompt them into opening up more? Really would like to see a video like this
