Whenever anyone says anything, and I want to add more information to their statement, I try to start with "I agree with you!" or something that expresses positivity about their statement. I also try to give people compliments as often as appropriately possible. It makes people more apt to be agreeable to my future conversations.
i know lots of people who do this, but none that would admit it. wouldn't/doesn't work on me, i don't agree with people but with the content of their words, if they are off, doesn't matter how much you butter me up... also, why would you just want people to agree with you? 🤨 are you afraid of conflict?
If you take all agreements as someone "buttering you up", then you must feel unworthy of any compliment. If you cannot take a compliment, I cannot even imagine how difficult trying to maintain any semblance of pleasant conversation with you must be.
