2. Choose the right topic. Some of the best topics might be the weather, sports, music, films, food, or travel. However, it is impolite to ask someone’s age, weight, or other personal information. Also, if you don’t agree with others, don’t argue with them. Just move on to another topic.
3. Be honest and sincere. If you have no idea of a subject, just say “I don’t know much about it.” If you want to make the other person happy, mention his or her strong points. But don’t just pretend to be nice, because people can find out you are not telling the truth.
