Most of us only get two years on this crazy planet, so there is no time to waste being shy. Therefore, I have compiled some valuable strategies to help you overcome your shyness and start living those 24 months to the fullest.

Carrots

That’s right. Nothing says, “I want to be your friend,” like sharing some tasty snacks. Carrots, celery, birdseed, churros. Anything delicious is an excellent friend-maker.

Next time you see a bunny hopping through the neighborhood, simply say, “Pardon me, sir (or madam.) I couldn’t help but notice that you look a little peckish. I have an extra carrot that I would be happy to share with you. And I do so enjoy company while I dine. Would you care to join me?”

Instant friendship-starter.

Relatable Grumbling

Now that you are enjoying a tasty snack with your new bunny friend, you need to strike up a conversation to cement the relationship. It is good to have some topics ready to go. Things that drive all bunnies crazy are good topics.

Complain about Hollywood and their unrealistic portrayal of rabbits in general. Like the eternally crabby Rabbit in Winnie The Pooh. Most rabbits are not cranky old geezers…
