The important thing is simply to develop the habit of starting simple little conversations with lots more people. Look for the interests you have in common.
If you want to be more socially successful, take the initiative yourself. Introduce yourself to new people and get the conversational ball rolling. Don't hold back and let other people make all the first moves.
If you have been holding back, waiting for other people to do all the work in the relationship, you are shirking your responsibility in making the relationship move forward.
Show interest in other people. Smile. Listen. Look at the person you're talking with.
Whenever you start talking stranger chat to new people, don't think you have to come up with great dialogue, or the perfect opening lines. Just get started, and keep on talking. Practice making conversations with a lot of new people. You will eventually get better at it.
It's also important that you don't beat yourself up if the conversation doesn't turn into a friendship immediately.
Don't decide that you're a failure. After all, the majority of conversations between new people don't really go anywhere.
But that's all right. It takes time and effort to turn casual strangers into friends.
Remember, that all of the friends you already have were strangers to you at one point in your life. Until you started talking and found out what you have in common.
