All this will make you a best friend and a good conversationalist in the company.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: How to Become an Interesting Person

1. 1 Be confident in yourself. You must have healthy self-esteem or high self-esteem. Before even trying to become an interesting person, you need to believe in your capabilities. There is nothing wrong with self-confidence, in which case you will be looked at with respect, not condescension, although most confident people suffer from a sense of insecurity.
   • There are many ways to build self-confidence and self-esteem.Try to list your accomplishments and strengths. People often focus on their flaws rather than their positive qualities. Think about what qualities others will consider you an interesting person.
   • List all your negative aspects and compensate for them. If you think of yourself in a negative way, others will follow your lead.
   • It is very important to be aware of your weaknesses and try to improve.
   • Don't be overconfident. There is nothing worse than selfish individuals. Beyond that, don't be a snob. Nobody likes people who can't be humble.
2. 2 Get ready to open up. If you surround yourself with an impenetrable wall, no one wants to communicate with you. If you do not tell others about yourself, they will not consider you open in communication. Learn to be open.
   • Try to create a sense of intimacy. People like to communicate with people close to them in spirit. Tell people about your own desires and fears. Tell them about your goals in life, family, friends, love for puppies, or other interests. Each person has their own goals and hardships. If you try hard, it is quite possible that you will learn to find a common language with anyone.
3. 3 Be unpredictable. Don't be afraid to take risks. Think about which of your acquaintances can be called an interesting person. They are likely to use every opportunity and constantly take risks, both in public and in other areas of life.
   • It will be difficult at first, but you should practice constantly. The more you try, the sooner it will become commonplace for you. Don't think too carefully, no matter what you are told. Do not try to thoroughly analyze what is happening and do not waste time thinking about what might go wrong and what others would say in your situation, or how you should react to the words of your interlocutor that have not yet been spoken.
4. 4 Be open to new ideas. Be open to new experiences and different points of view.
   • Try new things. This includes spontaneous or planned actions. If your friend wants to go to a concert of a band you don't like, go to the concert with him whatever it is. Be open to new sensations, even if they are not to your liking. You can always find something interesting for yourself.
   • Each person adheres to his own opinion, but you can find a common language even with those with whom you disagree, for example, in matters of politics or religion. Find common topics of conversation. If you know that you and your friend have different views on certain things, do not bring up conflicting points in the conversation.

Method 2 of 3: How to Become a Nice Person

1. 1 Show interest. The most important thing to remember is to listen to other people's opinions in conversation. Learn to listen to your interlocutor and express sympathy. If people think they can discuss any issue with you, they will more often invite you to their company. In a conversation, you should not endlessly talk only about your problems. If you ignore other people and constantly talk only about yourself, you will simply not be invited to the company anymore.
   • Ask questions. This is a good way to keep the conversation going. In addition, it will show others that you are interested in the topic of their conversation or a specific problem.
   • Give good advice if the situation calls for it. Some people just need to be heard. They just need to talk. Be a good listener and give advice based on your experience.
2. 2 Be positive. Concentrate on the positive aspects of your life, on your desires and aspirations. We all love to talk about our misfortunes with others, but if you talk about it all the time, people will quickly lose interest in communicating with you.
   • If you find yourself bringing up a sad topic, try to dilute your words with a couple of positive statements.
   • Try to cheer up the people around you.This will show them that you sympathize with their grief and leave the impression that you are generally a good, benevolent person.
   • Being positive is the same goal as the instructions provided in this article. Trying to be positive can help you cope with bad moods and improve your quality of life. If you've had a bad day, talk to the people around you about it, but don't go into too much detail. Be positive and things will change for the better. A positive attitude reduces stress levels, helps to cope with depression, and even normalizes blood pressure.
3. 3 Watch your body language. Your body should reflect your personality. You can pretend to be cool, tell interesting stories and be confident, but at the same time the body will scream the opposite, and people will not want to communicate with you.
   • Work on body language. Don't block people out by crossing your arms over your chest or sitting in a hunched position. Your body should tell others that you enjoy communicating with them.
   • Lean forward. Psychologists say that by leaning forward during a conversation, people show interest in the issue under discussion. People will find you interesting in a conversation if you appear interested in the topic of the conversation. All you need to do is lean forward slightly over the table when talking to a friend.
   • Make eye contact with the other person. This is another surefire way to show the person that you are listening.
   • Do not overdo it by following all these principles. Excessively intrusive and prolonged gestures (for example, walking around with your arms and legs spread wide, leaning forward too much, or not interrupting eye contact for a long time) may seem odd.
4. 4 Joke more. Don't be shy about your sense of humor. Tell both good and bad jokes. If people around you aren't having fun with your joke, just keep talking. Don't create an awkward situation.
   • Don't be afraid to tell dirty jokes or make fun of others. Copy other people along the way. Show what kind of facial expression (in a good or bad way) your friend had, whether it was a teacher or a co-worker. Reference humorous moments from popular movies or TV shows.
   • Don't be afraid to sound silly if you like it. Dance like a complete fool pretending to be the best dancer ever. Choose fun clothes like t-shirts with silly slogans.
5. 5 Smile and laugh. Even if you don't want to smile at all, do it anyway, because this is how you show a manifestation of closeness, positive emotions and friendliness. But pretending that you are having fun is not so bad, and in fact it is not that scary, because once you understand the essence of this trick, smiling becomes a natural reflex and just an attractive trait. :)
   • But don't overdo it and don't be intrusive. It will only make people feel uncomfortable.

Method 3 of 3: How to have an interesting hobby

1. 1 Learn to “have fun”. Entertainment can be different depending on the nature of the person. Some people enjoy just sitting and watching TV, playing games, or talking. Other people think of entertainment as a variety of interesting activities outside the home. Find out what your friends or potential friends love to do and adapt to them.
2. 2 Experience popular culture. At least familiarize yourself with all aspects of popular culture. Once you have a good understanding of the main points, you can adapt to people and join the conversation without any barriers.
   • Try not to criticize popular culture too much. Assess the setting, because you don't want to be the only opponent of popular culture. You should have your own opinion, but try not to offend or infuriate other people.
3. 3 Get lots of interests. If you are interested in something really entertaining, you will have a lot of new acquaintances with similar interests. Determine what you really like and develop in that direction. Don't be limited to a few options. What one will find interesting, another will find it strange.
   • Don't be afraid to develop your physical skills. Learn to juggle, do gymnastics, start playing sports or dance. You can also introduce people to your interests after you develop certain skills. This will make them admire you for sure. Plus, you will have something to talk about.
   • Get new hobbies. You have found wikiHow, so you will definitely cope with this task. Learn languages, learn how to cook Italian food, learn how to improvise on stage, write novels or distinguish the voices of birds by their singing. It doesn't matter which one you choose, the main thing is that you like it. Everyone loves learning new things, and if you can do something well, you can share your passion with others.
4. 4 Go to a new part of a city or area for you. Like gaining new knowledge and skills, some people enjoy trying new things. Look for new opportunities in a new part of the city for you, in which you have never been before, invite friends with you and treat it like an adventure. There are many excellent online resources to help you explore a new area.
   • Find out more about the region you live in. Inquire about new restaurants and public events. All people eat something, therefore, knowing a good restaurant, you can recommend it to others. Everyone loves to listen to music. Inquire about outdoor concerts in your city and tell others about them
   • Don't be afraid to go beyond your imagination. Look for activities that are new to you, such as poetry battles, roller derbies, exhibitions in a museum or gallery, cooking classes, or yoga classes in the park. Participate in eclectic activities. This is the best indicator of your spontaneity and openness to new ideas.

Tips

• You should enjoy your own interests and hobbies. If you like them, then the people around you will definitely like them too!
• Be honest and keep promises. Being reliable is very important, and if people understand that they can rely on you, they will feel much more comfortable with you.
• Treat people the way you would like to be treated. Show interest in them and they will do the same.
• Chat with people who are pleasant to you. If you're feeling unhappy, chances are you're just surrounded by the wrong people.
