Jokes first
Always
It's easy to forget
To try to be yourself
No one wants you
They only want what they think you are
Don't ruin it for them
Don't be yourself
Not in the beginning
This should be clear
Start with the jokes
Get them laughing
Get them all laughing
As they loosen up you can start to connect
Then start to relate
Then show them who you are
As soon as they are invested
This is when you can be yourself
