		<description>This really is a simple and quick look at the friendship process. Most people DO think poorly of small talk, but that&#039;s the way most new conversations are started - why try to reinvent the wheel? Besides, studies show most people don&#039;t remember how a conversation was started...they&#039;re too busy getting their first impression of you in other ways. 

Another thing is that most people who feel shy or uncomfortable about meeting new people, they usually think all of the above steps have to happen at once. That&#039;s not the case as the author stated. Getting to know someone and gaining trust can take time. More or less time depending on the person. I think knowing that going in, that you don&#039;t have to connect on every level right away, could alleviate some of the stress of meeting new people.</description>

		<description>Great article and only now I am married can I relate and honestly say that these key facts for a relationship I have.  However in previous relationships things like sharing feelings or being able to talk about any thing and everything were not possible.  Many couples get into a comfort zone where they do not open up to one another enough and so not only is it something you should do from the beginning but also continuously to have a happy and successful relationship.</description>

		<description>Having a regular and good communication is very essential to start or continue a relationship. Communication gap between two people always brings friction in their relationship and they start feeling uncomfortable when they are togather after a long time. I think everybody should have the basic communication skills because it is also a part of one&#039;s personality and helps him to express himself in a better way.</description>

		<description>I acted like a fool way before I was in highschool talking senseless stuff and also being a poor listener. I think that&#039;s why I never really had true friends due to my lack of communication and relationship skills. So in conclusion, to all the readers out there, this article really is good stuff. It actually worked for me, so why not try it out.</description>

		<description>I&#039;d have to agree that good communications skills are an important part of any type of relationship.  Part of the ability to communicate properly is to truly listen to the other person.  I find that I am guilty of thinking of the next thing to say while the other person is speaking and this does nothing but cause problems.  Instead of being a good listener, all I&#039;m caring about is my own opinions and that is a poor communication skill.</description>

		<description>I, myself doesn’t really know on how to start on communicating with other person. If I enter a room, I just smiled and nod but there is a big hesitation on my part to start on a topic. I am hesitant to discuss a topic of which I don’t know very much. The simple tips are of great help to me. Thanks!</description>

		<description>This is a great article, and it makes some good points. Something that a lot of couples downplay in their relationships is the need for open communication. It&#039;s great to have a physical attraction with your partner, but you have to be able to communicate effectively with them as well if you ever want the relationship to last.</description>
