Yeah that is what people tell me. What if I just skip it and say what is really on my mind?
any books or anything you know of perfecting small talk and or becoming an extrovert?

I love it. I can have a conversation with anyone anywhere. I'm very chatty.

There is no book that will turn you into an extrovert, you're wired the way you are. You can definitely learn to be a better conversationalist though. A lot of people suck at it nowadays, but my mom can routinely talk one on one for 12 hours straight, I don't even know how it's possible.

I like that.
aight so if it’s a woman that I’m trying to win over, how would you steer?
is it safe to say women like to talk about themselves and just keep the focus on them?

Dang 12 hours straight that is a real talent. I got friends at work that can do that with customers.

Sometimes it takes small talk to explain and reveal the entire story.

The only small talk I approve of is sports related.

Girls like being stimulated (in conversation) by subject matter they know lityle about but are curious in
If there's art on the wall there, Point out a picture on the wall, and tell an art story
If you're watching tv, Tell an anecdote about the movie or TV show on the screen
If shes drinking wine, Make up some story about wine tasting in Argentina
Suggest you know a sommelier who insists you pair that exact wine she's drinking with a certain cigar, and there's a cigar lounge down the road
At some point in your dialog youll get her to lock in if you can keep the story entertaining, once they lock in you're gold- they've made their mind up

I have no stories to tell. I’m a terrible storyteller. I can bullshit fine if the other person is leading the conversation, but if it’s on me especially with a girl then I’m screwed. You should definitely work on that addy script. Up the Xanax while you’re at it.

small talk mostly makes me uncomfortable.
skip right to big talk and let the chips fall where they may.
