What conversations could i start? What could I talk about? How do i make things not awkward? HELPP ME!
You're dealing with something it took me decades to realize.
I finally learned it's not always MY responsibility to start conversations, or to make sure things don't get awkward.
Now, when I'm around someone who can't be NOT finding things to talk about, and actually makes things awkward because they think someone has to always be talking, I shut down.
Not talking is ok. You might want to give the other people the opportunity to practice their social skills at starting conversations.
Don't be afraid of awkward moments. They really aren't that big a deal.
