Avoiding awkward pauses is literally an art
Not a professional but sometimes I would make a list at the back of my head and fill it in or when there’s a pause I’ll go like “So what is your opinion on (anything u saw trending on Twitter that day)” it can be as dumb as u want but don’t get political

@@fragjo4988 huh?
@@fragjo4988 oh shit I almost forgot that you actually commented something enough for me to use three periods...
only do it for like 7 seconds.
•Share your opinions.
•Ask open ended questions.
•Be in the moment.
• Using non verbal communication.
the first point explains, why drunk me is so likable
露デュー drinking is bad
ayman alzain You can't blame drinks but you...
ayman alzain it can be but when used responsibly, it’s not bad
When I'm on Alcohol, I'm an extrovert and more cool.
Next time the conversation is getting awkward just think fuck this shit and go ham
-So what is your name?
-Yes.
Filters are still up
Actually it’s Uvuvwevwevwe Onyitenevwevwe Ugwemubwem Osas
Ugwemuhwem Osas Uvuvwevwevwe Onyetenyevwe hahah “yes”
Yes Marley Johnson
Koyo
1. Remove filters.
2. U have to share too!
3. Use open-ended questions (avoid ones answerable by Yes or No or else convo is ded)
4. Be in the moment
5. Use non-verbal communication. (Smile, open posture, lean forward, touch that person first, etc.)
Ur welcome
Omg a true hero your the best ily
The man I was looking for
I literally found this as I finished the video. 😞
Can you elaborate on the sharing part? like can you give an example?
Am I the only person that clicks on a video and directly goes to the hero that posts this??
Me flirting with a girl in my class:
"So what school do you go to? "?
?? Haha
Copy too much?
😂
I bet you won't get her
@dneaM lolol how dumb are you guys, he literally posted it two years ago and she posted it 1 year ago. Use your brains for fucks sake 😂
Who else here feel awkward to look at a person in the eyes during a conversation?
Me, I always try to have conversations when I'm standing/sitting next to someone to avoid eye contact :D
I always took into their eyes for a couple of seconds and then I look at something else to avoid that awkward feeling ^^
Haziq Zamri Yeah I have this uncontrollable urge to look away ,even if it's somebody I like and I'm consciously trying to keep eye contact. It just cannot be done. Perhaps it's because I don't like to draw attention to myself at all.
NortexG - Art By looking a girl in the eye and maintaining that eye contact it shows a girl that you're confident and that's what a girl looks for. By not making eye contact it shows that you're scared and probably won't be as interested
lack of confidence?
ultimately stop trying to impress people by pressuring yourself to seem funny, smart, articulate and simply listen you'll find you're a lot more interesting than you think when you are no longer trying to impress or filter your true feelings
mamadou bah k
That won't work for me. I'm outgoing at home or with family members but at school I rarely talk. The only time I talk is when I answer a question or if I answer yes or no to a friend..
ItzMeAsh exact same problem for me, I feel you
ItzMeAsh bruh you just described how i act, i be wild at home or with friends sometimes but a school im considered the "quiet kid" and my classmates get suprised when im with a friend and start talking alot and making jokes.
Exactly..it's easier to just be yourself. Instead of trying to impress try to connect instead.
You know it’s bad when you’re watching a how-to-talk tutorial
🤣🤣 true
Facts😭😂😂
😭😭⚰
Bro this is not even funny anymore 😭
F
there's on problem... when I talk to someone.. the other person probably doesn't know about this video or vids like this lol
so if youre having an awkward conversation, know from now on its probably not your fault!
Itay Tabib It's not that it's not you're fault it's that they're probably not as interested in talking to you and that's fine.
Clorox Bleach I meant when they approach or we are "forced" to develop a conversation.. like let's say when I'm walking back from school with someone that always makes it a lil awkward
Itay Tabib איתי ימניאק מה נשמע
Right I have to work with this guy everyday and I try to make small talk with him because we work in such close quarters. He doesn't furthur share after I ask him questions and he never initiates conversations. I always have to start it. Its very awkward and it's not my fault. I'm playing my role.
Just don't give a fuck, if you feel like talking and he doesn't wanna give much of a response, just don't care. Like you people need to realize that this is all in your head, the minute yu stop giving a fuck you'll realize that you were just over thinking, clear your thoughts and focus on you and the ones that truly care about you.
That intro is literally every conversation in my life😂(I'm shy af)
Man this going to help my game thanks !!!
Paul Ramirez you're welcome!
Paul Ramirez if this helps your "game" you never had any ;)
Clever Username lol

Yeah bro this helped me with fortnite
How to talk to people when you are the person they are intimidated by. I'm 6'7 255lbs and I'm athletic not fat. Whenever I go to talk to people (especially guys) I can really feel them being extremely cautious incase they say something that might offend me. I don't get offended easily and I'm extremely nice and kind (gentle giant) but it's very deflating when the person you talk to is scared of you. Great video btw.
James F I would be scared of u I would avoid you at all times I would feel like u gonna beat me up and throw me in the trash can and starting laughing
James F I love you
James F Dont want think of them as afraid of you, that's usually not it. People just have respect. It's natural that one shows more respect to someone clearly superior.
As a short guy, i can understand what are you talking about cause sometimes i can be intimidated from someone much bigger than me. I think that niceness is the perfect cure for that soo i think you are doing good man :)
Cool ;)
I would add something very important for me.. Be cultivated. I think it's essential to hold an interesting conversation. Great video as always !
Ephesia yes that's a good point!
what do you mean by 'cultivated' ?
@@floronix he never responded
lol
@@ncabcabin rip
Fresh breath is also a good thing to keep a conversation dont ya think?
*Removes Filters*
Crush- How are you ?
Me-yes
About the nodding thing, I used to have the opposite issue sometimes; I would occasionally overdo the nodding, especially if it was with someone in a more senior position to me, or on a date with a really attractive girl, probably coming across as overly eager to please. Gotta find a happy medium.
The spacing out and not paying attention while others talk thing is the biggest one for me, and probably a lot of people. I think ADD may play a role here. Sometimes it's not a big deal, but sometimes it can happen when it's an important conversation. If I'm nervous sometimes, I find myself thinking about thinking, or "meta-thinking", and this distracts my attention away from the interaction.
This guy was my savior to my relationship thumbs up

crush: hey
me: **heart races body overheats pupils pulsate brain malfunctions** - h-
crush: **looks away**
This is aurguably the best non-fashion related video you have ever made. Simple, concise and to the point. I always wondered why I am reviered for my abilaty to hold conversations with some of my friends and not others, and you adressed that right out of the gate; my presupositions about what they wanted to talk about. I now realize it is more important to just throw caution to the winds and just freeflow with them until I find what sticks.
Great video.
One thing that I learned from a close friend of mine. Always show that the person you are speaking to is important and worth learning from. Even if you have no interested in their passion, show them whatever they are into has value in the world. This technique will go a long way in a conversation.
But whatever you do, don't be fake with it.
"Hey guys, what's up."
"Vsauce here, with a message about escaping the friend zone."
what ? Smile ?
LoL I cant smile "crooked teeth"
Seriously? same
Seriously? 😂😂
Guess I'll die then.
same
Bruh all my teeth are spread out and crooked, which really sucks because I have a very attractive face.
*VERY* smooth transition to the sponsor: "Sometimes you need a what-time-is-it? filter. Now, I do want to thank, The. Fifth. Watches..."
This is actually one of the most informational videos on conversations I've ever heard
I woke up just to comment on your video

Omg! The way you talk, the way you dress, the way you think! You're so perfect! Keep sharing Sir!
new to this channel but i love the videos, can learn a lot from them💯
1:34 around girls don't immediatly ask to smash filter
Filter on for the homies 😎😎😎
Remove your filters, When you ask a question share something in return, Use open-ended questions, Be in the moment so you can pick up leads to further develop the convo instead of zoning out, Use non-verbal communication that shows you are very interested (smile, facing them, eye contact, occasional nods, dont cross arms, lean forward)
Thank you.

Oh great tip!
Wait.....how do I access the gui to turn off those filters?!
Dude I subbed to you this morning and am already loving all your videos! Thanks and keep it up!!
*Removes filter*

I'm a business major and I love your channel man. Keep up the good content!
Angel Zamarron yeah hus channel is great!!
Angel Zamarron where'd you get that channel?? It looks really great!
I appreciate the points you bring out in your videos. This one in particular. I'm not a dude, but sometimes I have a hard time keeping conversations going. I usually just admit that I'm a bit awkward and ask the person what they want to talk about next. But, I'll try these suggestions.
I LOVE your videos. I just found your channel, keep up the fantastic work.
Who would dislike your videos man!! Keep up the good work =)

part of conversation are those awkward silences! don't be afraid of them! accept them and being comfortable with them is very important for your confidence!
Great video!
I am so guilty of the first tip to not interrogate people!
I hate it when people ask me so many questions, now I realize that I am that person LOL
Keep up the good work!
#1 You have to share!
Thank you for this video I loved it!
Even though you talk about it very generally, this is very efficient in middle through high school. Like you said about filters, with your friends you act all funny and with teachers you try to a bit more civilized. This video was VERY useful thank you so much.
where was this video when I needed???? FML!!!!!

hay Jose, I love how ur public speaking or speaking skills has improved dramatically from when u first started the channel. This is a big problem for me. I would completely avoid a conversation because I wasn't confident enough in my ability to speak. I would really appreciate if u could make a future video on this topic. Thank you! @ teachingmensfasion
These are actually useful tips!

jose!! make "draw my life" plz?
Tukang Beling would love that :)
Tukang Beling why? his so young and seems like a normal dude. maybe a draw my life but instead he talks about his style and how it has changed would be a lot better.
He probably came out the womb giving a paid promotion
u always make such nice videos !subscribed !
These videos are really bumping up my confidence.
how will you approach a girl in public?
Alexis Mathews you don't because they usually have a "boyfriend"
genuine compliments
Alexis Mathews you put your left feet in front of your right and switch frequently in a forward movement, you are now approaching the girl. Thank me later.
