What is the best way to start a conversation with a person you don't know?

Question

For example when your at a friends party and the person you want to talk to you don't know from a bar of soap and no-one has introduced you. This is probably the one area of my life i suck at majorly. I want to rectify this. I don't mean cause i want to get into their pants either it's just a conversation thing.

Answer 1

ahh. i know what you mean. if its someone my age, i ask: what in your opinion is the ugliest fruit? i get laughs and pineapples, grapes, and kiwis. although i never understood the grape one... and if its someone older than me than i say hello and shake their hand. then i talk about the party. and if its someone younger than me i walk away.

i also smile alot and joke about how bdaly i dance
