  Making new people you meet have a different mind set of you from who you really are might be that easy to pull off being that they have no idea of who you were, I grew up in a neighbourhood with alot of crazy friends which definitely made me behave the same way, growing up, I began to feel different,
  I decided to take a few steps and work on my first impression, may be that could help with the way the new people I met feel about me. I didn't exactly want to totally change from who I was to a different person, I'd never advice you to do that, just try and work on you being more inviting and also in a way that gives a clearer picture about your good qualities.

 I've come up with 4 ideas that worked for me and think would also do for you. These are simple approaches, it's just about making an effort to try them when you meet new people

   Smile
 It's quite obvious and well known that smile is a measure of attraction, I for the record I'm quite found of smiling when having a conversation and try a lot to make jokes, though not that much so you wouldn't be thought as a humorous person. While smiling is important, you probably don't want to have a cheesy and inauthentic grin all over your face, cus it may risk them thinking "Is he trying to cover up his nervousness or something", this is why you also need to keep a straight face half of the way. Smiling doesn't only make people comfortable around you, it also goes a long way to make people think of you as a nice person. 

   The eye shot 
  Making eye contact is one of my thing during a conversation cus this actually goes a long way in getting people interested in what you have to say. 
  I'd also tell you that it's a great idea not to over do it, give it a break, no one enjoys eye contact for long, at least not from a stranger, you don't want to risk them getting nervous or avoiding your eye contact. Looking away too much also makes you appear distracted, keep your shot on the average. 

   Be present
  When meeting someone new, you’re in an unusual situation, and your mind is racing faster than ever: "do i look odd? what is she/he thinking about me? Am I sounding good enough? What do I say next?" Quit it. Silence those voices. Mind race cuts off your attention and at the end you'd have just had a shot and unproductive meet. Slow it, take a breath. 
  When meeting for the first time, I always aim at retaining some piece of information about them to be able to meet them again, ask only relevant questions-questions you know the answers would help you meet them another time. 
  Your full attentiveness will create a level of comfort. “The better you make the other person feel, the more they’ll be inclined to have a positive impression of you”.

   Make a connection
  When I met someone new, I try to inquire a few things about them and relate it to my self, like have you read a recent book? Or watch a recent movie?. This doesn't only help in generating comfort, it also helps you get something to talk about. Remember to be positive, trust me, they don't want to hear about how your dog died, or your pocket that was picked. 
  Your upbeat attitude and positivity will make for a great first impression.

  With these few tips, you'd be on and going with new friends. Please comment and also let me know what else we should add to this.
