Conflicted on how to hold a small talk with random strangers I meet when I basically have nothing going on for me in life.
>inb4 talk sports and weather
I do, but there's a point where the talk eventually shifts to us and our lives. I am working on it to get it back on track but it'll take a year or so. Until then, what do you think I should do?

Family, Occupation, Recreation, Dreams

>HEFE
Hobbies, Entertainment, Food, Environment

If you get asked about your life, just be honest without being negative. Or just be brief and change the subject.

This is a valid approach for speed running whether or not you like someone

I've found success in talking about the interests surrounding the place you're in
>Grocery store, talk about food and cooking
>Cafe, coffee and the shops around town
>Bookstore, books
Etc.

small talk is faggy if you don't intend on furthering the conversation.
>How's the weather nigga?

maybe start with something meaningful or change the conversation to something meaningful after starting it
Otherwise don't do that retarded bullshit, it's not doing anyone any good or helping you socially
