Haha, I don't (I usually wait for someone else to start a conversation, but when I do start one I just get straight to the point ((Unless we're introducing/meeting for the first time then it's like the usual hi how are you stuff and we never talk again. Joke we either stop after that or we try to bring up an interest that we know the other likes, usually these conversations happen because we share an interest and decided to dm to get to know each other more))
I'm bad at conversations I dunno if that's the right move or not but that's how I (try to) start conversations
