How do you establish good relationships with new people?

Answer 1

Just socialize.

so·cial·ize [soh-shuh-lahyz] -verb (used with object) 1. to make social; make fit for life in companionship with others.

You might be shy at first, but dont worry, because they might be thinking "Oh jeez, what should I say?"Ask questions like:

• "So what school do you go to?"
• "How old are you?"
• "Whats sports do you like?"

Ask specific questions about specific things when you're both talking/hearing/watching it. Dont annoy them, by asking too many questions, or...being too shy. You'll make a friend, dont worry.

At the same time you have opposite pressure working toward you. Not all people are open to being social, and getting along with people can be hard. (honestly speaking) One of the easiest ways to get along with people would be to agree with them, or be friendly with them; mainly be reasonable with them. Unless they`re the type of person who enjoys debating. Getting along with people is more than being social with someone; it`s also about understanding how the person acts/reacts, understanding the person in general, and so much more that people don't notice on the outside.

You should try to find out what you have in common, and if you share interests.
it's more likely you'll get on with people if you're willing to make some compromises and if you find people with the same interests as you.

Answer 2

I believe that you need to try to read new people carefully. First start with watching their body language while you start off with a conversation that you think you may have a common interest in. Next, try to be flexible with your own style and make them feel more comfortable around you. For example, if you would like to offer them a beverage and you notice they answer with "Sure, I would love a cup of coffe." Then serve them coffee and you yourself join in with a hot beverage. If they say, "Oh, just a glass of water would be fine," then ablige them and you also have just a glass of water. This is something called style flexing. Body language can tell a lot about a person, if you notice they keep stepping away from you when you are talking, this is telling you that they need more personal space and you should allow them more room in the future. Or if they are confinded to a space and seem nervous, try stepping away from them or sitting back in your chair to give them more personal space. I call it my "bubble." Try to stay on noncontroversial subjects at first until they start to bring up something that can get more indepth. Be open to using humor to keep things light and get you out of a touchy subject. If a serious subject can not be avoided, approach it honestly and use a your least tense face as possible. The more comfortable you are the more they will allow themselves to be. Repect boundries that you notice, if they are showing uneasiness by figiditing in their chair, offer to move to a different room without making it because of them. For example, if you know they are a smoker or like to be outside you could offer to go for a quick walk or out for a smoke with them. Or you could think of something you would like to show them in the next room and ask them to come see it, this will open up the opportunity for them to get up and move and for you to take the first step in sharing something with them. On the other side, be aware of whether the enjoy an occasional alcoholic beverage, if they do, pay attention to what it is, this is both a good conversation starter and a way to see if they would approve of you having one. If they are yawning often while visiting, keep it short. They are either tired or very nervous, many people yawn when they are nervous. Ask permission to use something of theirs or even if it is something that seems obvious to you such as a chair or a pen. Asking shows them you are have both manners and respect for them and their surroundings. Take an interest in something that seems it is important to them. Such as their family, hobbies, car, music, pets, art, flowers, etc. Even if this is something you have never been fond of, look at it with interest and at worst you still won't like it, but you will have both learned something about them and about the subject. It is vital that you remember it is ABSOLUTELY okay to agree to disagree but still repect someone's opinion. Finally, do not over stay your first visits or conversations. Keep them short and not to intense. Pleasant, is the impression you want to give them at first. Use your own body language to help them feel comfortable. Be as relaxed as seems appropriate and try to smile without being fake. This will put them at ease as you get to know one another. Other people are reading you too, trying to remember that and not seeming over anxious or paranoid can be hard but it is an art that develops over time. If you are meeting someone in a hospital that is a patient in their room, stop at the door, introduce yourself, ask if you can come in, maybe if this is a good time for them. Notice a plant, photo or pamplet they may have received. This can show interest, start a conversation and be a great to start veiwing the vibes they give off. Good Luck! If you could be more specific about a situation I could maybe lend an opinion. I am not a degree holding anybody, I have life experience at my disposal and years and years of being very good at sales and taking many sales train courses. I do not claim to be great at spelling either, lol.

Answer 3

If you have a great social life, making friends with people from all over the world won't be a problem for you! You'd be talking with them like old buddies in 10 minutes! Now, if you are a more shy type of person, it may be very hard to get words out of you to go and make friends. Here's a trick: If you don't like to talk to people because it's very hard to get the words out because you're too shy, then make friends with a very popular person first. Afterwards, he/she will introduce you to all sorts of friends that they have, and all you'd have to do is simply say "Hi! My name is ___."

Answer 4

Try to be kind to others, that will be start for a good relationship
