How do you get other people to speak with you? Usually I never know what to say in response.

Being a chatterbox hasn’t worked out too well throughout my life. Even in my second language, German, it’s evident im sort of a “parrot” when it comes to learned social phrases.

Socially exhausted right now and feeling like an alien.

    Agreed, however I recommended against “good talk”, personally.

    No one has ever said that to me after having what might actually be considered a “good” talk. I find it’s usually only said by someone who has tried to start a conversation and I have failed to effectively reciprocate.
