You got invited to a party and you are excited!
"But wait..." you tell yourself, "First, I need to find out which of my friends are going?"
You call up several of your friends, only to discover that none of them will pull up.
You feel disappointed, "Only strangers?! How do I go to a party with no one to talk to... I can't just talk to strangers!"
And so, you decide to RSVP:
"Thank you, but no thank you."
But that is not what you wanted to do; you tell yourself that you can't help it.
Another situation could be that you have reached a party before any of your friends or colleagues, and all you see is a sea of unknown faces. Some people feel almost petrified in such situations. So, how to turn the tide in your favour? How to make a solo appearance at these parties, and still manage to have a fun fiesta?
Here, we will discuss some methods which will help you to not only feel comfortable in such situations but also make some good friends (even life-long. Yes, it happens).
Before You Go
To begin with, be optimistic and confident: You need to feel confident in your own skin. You are a unique person with your own set of strengths. You can be a bit nervous, but be confident about yourself and your abilities. A reasonable self-confidence will help you be optimistic and look forward to the events. This feeling of selfassurance will contribute to a better first impression. Those who appear sad, jittery or cheerless, drive away people even before the conversations begin.
Please remember that people like to be around happy, confident, optimistic beings.
