Lightbulb So conversation.... - April 11th 2012, 03:40 PM

I was wondering, how do you keep conversations fluid and interesting.
I'm pretty introverted and conversations aren't really my strong point.
So tell me, what do you start and keep a conversation going when talking to women?
Advice from boys and girls welcome.

the key is to listen and ask questions. remember things they said, and ask about the details.

For an example, If I say I'm going on a trip to somewhere, ask about why I'm taking the trip, what made me decide to go on the trip, then ask where else I have been, what my favorite places are and why I liked them, where I would like to go, etc. Then you can talk about where you've been and what you want to do as well... and if you were to see me when I come back, ask about how my trip was.

It's all about wanting to know the details, and thinking of questions- whether you really want to know the answer or not.

otherwise, you can play a game called 21 questions. here's how you play:
you ask the first question (i.e., if you were on a desert island what are two things you would bring)
both you AND your date need to answer
the other person asks another question and you both answer.
usually, if done right, you won't make it past question 9 because you are so into the past questions

Exactly what the above user said, try to ask question and try to relate to what they are saying. Also maybe bring up some interesting points about yourself if they fit in with the conversation.

Asking questions isnt always a bad thing. But from my best experiences dont ask question after question, It would be like they are being interviewed. Depends really on the context of it all. I agree with heather though, if you do ask a question like about her travels and she said she went to france, and youve never gone to france. you can say something like, "You know Ive never gone to france. But i imagine it like...." and just fill it in with what you think of. then end it with a small question of like "am i right?" or something along those lines.

just keep a nice fluid convo going, and keep eye contact with her while doing it. that will give you alot of bonus points.
