I have relatives who find this kind of conversation very difficult. I wish there was some kind of program in which people who are shy (or withdrawn or simply loners) could PRACTICE this with “like” others. If done right, it could be a fun opportunity. For those who find communication with strangers to be a really hard thing, there is a need for practice in a comfortable setting before stepping out. Ahhh, what joys they miss!

Thanks, Marsha. I'm one of "those" who find it hard enough to talk to people I know, much less strangers. I've often thought of a group for learning interpersonal communication. Others think it silly that one can't do the basics; for me it's painful.
