Tiny Tweaks to Your Questions Can Make You a Much Better Conversationalist
The questions you ask can make or break a conversation
Questions are an integral part of any conversation, and the questions you ask can make or break a conversation. Here are two sample conversations to illustrate:
Conversation A
You: Hey bro! Long time. How are you?
X: Hey, man! I’m great. What about you?
You: I’m doing fine as well. So, had breakfast?
X: Not yet. I just woke up. How about you?
You: I did. Woke up this late? What time did you sleep last night?
X: Around 2 AM. I was playing Valorant late into the night.
You: Oh, I used to game but haven’t heard of this one. Which year was it released in?
X: 2020 I think. Um, sorry, bro, I gotta go. Talk to you later. Bye!
You: Sure, no problem. Bye!
With the conversation being bland and uninteresting, X gets bored and ends it abruptly with a polite excuse.
Conversation B
You: Hey bro! Been a while. How are you and what have you been up to?
