Things in Common.
One observation I have come to realize is that I have nothing in common with people that I can build a friendship on simply because I have lost interest in everything.

@Gettingbettertoday
what would you like to talk about?
I, myself dislike all the favorite this or that questions as i see them as not helping anyone connect. I seriously doubt i can form a friendship with someone simply because a food or snack choice.... if that worked i would answer NA too on most as i simply do not assign this or that as my favorite.
i think people can have issues making friends because people would like a deeper conversation then that but how do you start..... i recently met someone and we talk about almost everything without hesitation or judgement and not based on liking same things..... as i do not really know why we clicked i can not give the formula on how to do it.....
@toughTiger6481
what would you like to talk about? Nothing because nothing interests me.
How do you transition from small talk to real talk?
@Gettingbettertoday
I have actually had some thought on this since your post ....
it is something i have struggled with when meeting friends ect...... i often assumed I had nothing to talk about ... had no real subject to spur things on.... but i have made great friends over the years that i can talk about almost anything with them.
How did i get there it is hard to articulate .... it is different with many ppl ......i try to talk about things we can relate to .... when you start comparing stories you may find you have more in common then you could imagine.
Even friends whom have little in common make good conversation if for example I have perspective from another view....
Recently i was discussing looking over concerts scheduled coming to our area comparing music tastes and agreeing that a venue that had insane fees that made tickets out of my budget.... discussing whom we would have liked to see in their prime .. why so many people continue to tour at advanced ages ... do they need money from bad management or do they really just love performing that much ? .. enjoying plays on names that often are cover bands etc....
it started a conversation and we found other things we could talk about.
well you can make more serious icebreakers but it wont be comfortable. we can talk about why no one likes us, our last failing, our stressful jobs and how we make money, our crazy political ideas, our messed up bodies, etc. but this will drive people away quicker unless you meet that one super compatible person. so must people dont do it.
