Where do you find this. Bars provide me with a building full of people who are likely more sociable and open to talking with randos at the time, though the conversations tend to be dumbed down a bit. The disinhibition is powerful.
The only other places I have “good conversations” these days are in niche online spaces, with people I won’t find irl.
- muffinman26 5y agoOP is college-age, and most colleges have a variety of seminars, which are a great place to start. The people who attend these seminars usually are interested in talking about the same topics informally afterwards. If you're not in college, any course with content to study where you see the same people multiple times in-person is a good place to meet people interested in talking. If you're not sure what interests you, check out the continuing education catalog of your local community college. If you don't have much practice striking up conversations with sober strangers, it may take a few sessions before spontaneous conversations start up, but by the midway point of every wilderness or language course I've taken people were very chatty.
