conversation starters

fuzion007 Posts: 5 Joined: 2001/04/23	2003/05/12, 11:55 PM i'm not a pro at this and i was wondering if i could get some advice. If a girl is looking at you, what would you say to her to get a conversation going? what are some good opening lines or things to say so you could keep her interested and keep up the conversation? any help is appereciated thanx!
	2003/05/13, 12:25 AM I always try to subtly move my way towards her, and then make a fairly inane comment about the place where we are (Ex: "damn, this place is packed") After that, work in an introduction, ask her some broad questions about her (occupation, school, where she hangs out) and try to find a common ground. Once you find that common ground, run with it, peppering subtle compliments in the conversation every once and a while. Be confident, don't be overbearing, and don't be cheesy. Much easier said then done, but what's the worst that could happen? -------------- OSU Law Rugby....specializing in personal injury and pain & suffering.

Then, maybe a "How YOU doin?" like that guy on friends.. yeh that'd work. =) Sorry had to have some fun with this post! *scratches his chin* hmmm why am I single... =) -------------- Dont wait!

	2003/05/13, 08:45 PM haha...Good point, Ogun. Hopefully fuzion is young enough so he doesn't believe it. Ah, the blissfully ignorant teenage years..... -------------- OSU Law Rugby....specializing in personal injury and pain & suffering.

But hey how about some advise instead of making jokes? ; ) But seriously, don't listen to these guys who've had some bad experiences w/ relationships or just want to kid around. Be sincere and yourself, and you'll get to know her better if the balance is right. = )

If you properly portray yourself.. and she doesn't like that, then it shouldn't be. If you try to lay down something artificial, she'll see right through it for sure. Good luck fuzion! -------------- Dont wait! Procrastinate NOW! =)
