Ask Your Question today
I have diarrhea of the mouth sometimes with new acquaintances & can't control what I say about certain personal things. Like example "Oh my brother used to be in prison." or " Im obsessed with gory movies." I need serious advice guys how to start things out with people you just met. Tell me your experiences.

Why not just listen more? Then (as most educated people do) think before you speak!!
That's what I do nowadays just listen more but people even find me more awkward. Im socially awkward.
Makes the conversation less, dumb and adds flavor to the conversation. I don't see Anything wrong with it, if they judge you harshly for what you have to say, then find better friends!
Happens to me all of the time. I get nervous and don't consider most of my information personal. Do what joybird says.
Ask them about their lives and just listen and keep asking about them. They'll like you and you hardly said shit. Then paraphrase what they said when they paused like they expect an answer from you. Trust me, works for me every time. I have tons of friends. I am just no good at keeping contact.
If you find that you say the wrong thing spontaneously, pause for half a second and come up with something else.
