@askvinh: How to talk to strangers - this is a common question I get, and the answer is simpler than you think! No need for fancy openers, this simple approach with a dose of vulnerability is a powerful way to inject yourself into group conversations. What's your way of approaching strangers and striking up a conversation?
And if they say NO to that..you don’t want to be in that circle. And if they say YES, how welcomed would you feel?! Simple, but effective

My friends and I would probably get really uncomfortable if someone came up to us and asked to join our conversation

I do this at every networking event, conference, and convention, etc. I always add that I’m here alone. Yes, most always welcome me. It's a great way to make introductions and people will remember you. Most people are afraid to ask, so take the risk. Be the one that walks through the door of potential opportunities.
It's a practice, like everything in life.

the people in the group usually watch themselves awkwardly, not willing to make a decision

Can we normalize this people?! Bc I’ve attended a lot of networking events at conferences and everyone just stay within their own group of friends. No one networks at network events lol

Why make it awkward by saying “may I join the conversation?” Just say your name and share something about what’s happening and naturally join the conversation.

The difficult I find is trying to find a gap in the conversation without looking like a weirdo listening in before you get a chance to interject and ask anything
