Running out of topics to talk about..


Recommended Posts

I don't know if anyone is facing the same problem as I am but everytime I meet a girl I am interested in I usually have alot of things to talk about. But eventually when I get to know them better and I ask them out then things starts to screw up. At dinner I just run out of topics to talk about and eventually we will be staring at one another with nothing better to say. I know some girls like guys who are good listeners but eventually they too will run out of topics and I think it is up to us guys to keep the chit chat or discussion going. Anyone can give me some tips and pointers on what I should or can do ?

I think this is a good topic. I too often run out of things to say to women.

For guys, its pretty easy. So, how about them, L.A. Lakers, or that girl is cute, or check out that new mustang.

 

It's pretty easy to come up with guy topics. Can't do that with women.

 

Sometimes, at least the girls I talk to, dont like to talk about themselves.

Which kind of cancels out the above post.

 

I, too, am interested in what to talk about when topics run out.

So many people just talk about themselves and never ask the other person some questions. Ask about their family members, friends, experiences when younger, likes or dislikes.

 

You can spin a question off any statement they make. Or if they ask you a question simply ask them the same question and expand from there asking more details ect.

 

Many people talk so much about themselves they forget the other person is supposed to be in the conversation.

I don't know about you, but I find it very boring when someone's just talking on and on and on and on just to fill space.

 

I enjoy a good listener!

 

That doesn't mean you don't talk....but you try to find out more about a person by asking them thoughtful questions, such as

 

* Why did you pick the particular field you're in?

 

* Tell me about your family. Who are you closest too? Which parent are you most like?

 

* Where would you live if you could go anywhere in the world and cost is no object?

 

* Did you play any sports in school?

 

 

If you're doing a lot of talking and never asking questions, you risk being a Big Blabbermouth and not really fun to talk to anyway.
