I've interviewed a socially at ease friend named 'Eric'. He's a great guy who went from moving to the US and not speaking any English and not fitting in, to living his dream life in Bali.
Here's some of the gem's he shared:
Quoting Eric:
I think asking questions and listening works the best when you’re trying to meet somebody. People love talking about themselves. They don’t get that opportunity for somebody to truly listen. So the more you listen to them the more deeply they become connected to you. They’re investing in you by giving you their time and sharing their lives with you. So just ask a question, and hear who they are and what they do and what they enjoy.
