    I ain't that good at starting it replying to convos online, I don't know what to type half the time. I'm good in real though. I normally just say random words then we start talking 'bout stuff.

    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.

    I'm pretty terrible at communicating with people in general in person. Online its easier since you only need the words. I'm actually very loud and sociable but I get really awkward and stuff.

    Online, I'm usually the one who starts the conversation, but sometimes the people I talk to online from Skype never respond despite having their green status on. In real life, I tend to be shy to start conversation on random strangers, especially if it's a woman.

    I just find people in the online list and then go and talk to them. It's fun to read their Biography and send them a VM which is related to that........

    I'm bad a keeping up convos via on the internet and text, unless I have you added on skype. Like a real life conversation between people I can keep up well. I have a short attention span, which can makes social things like that hard for me sometimes.

    I'm terrible at it everywhere. In real life I'm usually too afraid to try it and online when I rarely initiate conversation I usually get short replies and then none at all or they just ignore me. Lol. I'm cool with it though, I wouldn't talk to me either.

    Online, I'm usually the one who starts up conversations, but maintaining them, no. Doesn't help when you can't think of anything to follow up. Real life is a tiny bit better.

    My online self is slightly more outgoing than my real life self >< My tendency online is just to approach anyone who seems friendly or if someone messages me first, I will reciprocate :) It's not that I'm scared to start conversations, I just don't know how or what to talk about XD I can be an awkward turtle sometimes.

    I prefer calm silence over anything, but I can be the funniest most social person there is if the time calls for me to be so.

    Online?? Wow I would talk to you hours on end and wait until you have to leave because I don't like saying goodbyes.

    I'm pretty good at starting conversations but some times I have a hard time holding them when the other person isn't much of a conversationalist. :(

    I find myself starting up conversations with new people both online and offline. I guess I am just a friendly person

    I'm very rarely the conversation starter. I do better with being spoken to and then replying, but occasionally I'll ask the usual how someone is doing at work, what's going on with school, and etc.. but that doesn't last long.

    Online I very very rarely ever speak with someone first. 98% of the time others have to shoot me a message before I do just cause.. it's how I am. 8( I assume I'm pestering people or just don't do it unless someone wants to tell me something.
