How do you become good at connecting with others and making friends without treating it like a job interview? What do you do when you don't know what to talk about? If you talk about yourself, it makes you look like a narcissist. If you ask questions, it makes you look like a job interviewer.

I wish I knew what to say in silence, my mind just goes blank so much
I have accepted I am not fit for social settings
I used to just drink a bit to loosen up but now when I drink I just get really sad so that's out the window

Just comment on random things in your surroundings if you reel like you're asking too many questions. Even if it sounds kind of retarded just give your opinion on low stake things. Normies want to talk even if they don't have anything to say.

>there sure are a lot of tourists here

Not if you show genuine interest and find some common ground. You can't JUST ask questions, you've got to engage with their responses.

There's videos on this with practical tips btw. I don't have them on hand rn but I'm sure you can find them if you search for it.

i struggle with this too and i'm socially retarded, but recently i was able to make a new friend. i sat down next to her said hi and told her "i love your hair" which she then complemented me back and we just started talking from there. Of course it depends on how receptive the other person is but if they aren't? Move on and try again. imo there's nothing to lose because you don't know them that well in the first place.
