I read the mood first and kinda look what kind of personality the person I wanna talk to or trying to talk to. But If I don't think I should, I won't. If I think I should, I'll make a topic out of the blue and will be easy at the end.

Well, the only way for me to talk to people online is if I start the convo. So overtime time I started to just learn how to talk to people. I don't think that I'm good at it though. Can be quite awkward at times.

Usually if I break away from being shy, I'll strike up a conversation. But most of the time, I am shy, and I usually wait for people to converse with me.

In person, I'm pretty good. Start with small talk if you have to and segue into something actually worth talking about. Works for me like a charm. It's different on the internet, though, because people might not respond. On screen is generally more difficult than off.

I'm getting better at initiating conversation. I come off as being shy/unapproachable at times but if someone starts a conversation with me I won't shut up after a while xD

I'm not quite fond of making a conversation in real life, even though sometimes I can find it easier to do in online.

I'm not good at all with starting conversations. I'm a pretty shy and asocial (note: this is the correct term and not anti-social, that means you're against society , not shy) and just have a really hard time talking to someone and even thinking of what to say to someone. So usually I just wait untill someone starts the conversation. Then the conversation usually goes like this:

Person:Hey how are you?
Me: Uh hi. I'm good how about you?
Person: I'm good thanks for asking.
Me: That's good. *can't think of what else to add to the conversation* Okay gotta go so bye.
Person:See you later.
Me: Yeah you too

I've been trying on improving this though and helping my talk more when not behind a keyboard. I think by taking an oral communications class this semester it might help.

I can hold a conversation online and offline the same amount of time. I usually start them online, while in real life I usually am the one doing more of the listening. Still, I can make small talk and hold a decent convo.

I like to think that i'm pretty good at starting conversations and keeping them up in person
Over text/internet I have a lot of confidence in my conversation skills XD it's a lot easier

But yeah if i'm the one in person being approached I get all awkward and stuff :p

Online I usually wait for someone to send me a message, same with phone messages, unless I really want to tell someone something or I am bored.
Offline, I do not start conversations much unless with family, lol. Even then I don't start most conversations. Except with my boyfriend...I never shut up with him, poor soul.

I'm usually the one striking up the conversations. It's also depends on the person I'm conversing with. I have no problems with talking to Strangers. I enjoy the faces people make when you randomly talking to them. You either get the "pleasantly pleased" look or the "why the hell are they talking to me" look.
