Stay sober and just talk about stuff you enjoy man if she likes you she will fall in line but if not she should still enjoy your company doesnt matter what you talk about in all honesty. It’s about HOW you say it not WHAT you say - womanese 101

Women who are interested in you should be interested in ur hobbies too! Talk to them about weight lifting they might ask questions about it if they like u if they don’t ask questions they probably aren’t too interested. Talk about stuff you like and ask her about things she likes!!!

Girls don't care if you lift. When will a girl ever ask you how much you squat?

Flip it then, sir! Find what she is truly passionate about, and keep asking questions and digging into it. If she asks you questions in return, answer, and then flip it back to how it relates to her.
People love talking about themselves, so find someone with things you like hearing about. Plus, people love the validation that comes with being heard, and that will work in your favor.

Go buy “the art of small talk.”
You need to brush up on your communication skills yo.
[–]BudgetInteraction811 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
No. Do NOT talk about that unless she brings the subject up. Otherwise you’re going to come across as trying waaay too hard to impress her. Women do not want to hear about your weightlifting regimen unless they explicitly ask.
My advice is to go bowling or do an actual activity together for the first few dates. There is nothing worse than a coffee date for a first or second date, in my personal opinion. It’s awkward as fuck, and awkwardness doesn’t make you feel attracted to someone.

Use the FORD method. This can help branch the conversation to a thousand different places. It also puts her in the position of talking about herself and what she values.
F for family Everyone has a family, right?... Whether you are close to them or not, we all have at least a mother and father. Even if the person you are talking to is adopted or has lost their parents this can be a great place to start because talking about things that are a bit deeper than surface level helps you build a stronger emotional attachment to the person sharing. Studies have also shown that talking about your family to strangers helps you to become significantly closer to them.
O for occupation One of the easiest topics to start a conversation on is work. Although in some cases work is the last thing people want to talk about, most people have some form of occupation and it’s where they spend most of their waking hours. People’s jobs or education are often related to something they are passionate about, so this can give you insight into what they are interested in.
R for recreation Recreation refers to anything that others do for relaxation or enjoyment. This is all about fun! This is an easy way to get to know someone on a more personal level, as you get to find out what they do with their spare time. You get to find out people’s hobbies and the ways they like to switch off.
D for dreams When engaging in small talk, you don’t often get the chance to hear about what people really want from life. Everyone has a dream but, they are often afraid to share it because people HAVEN’T supported them in the past and think you’ll be the same but, if you show that you’re interested, this can make people hold you in very high regard. Talking about these topics with people can be like being on an emotional roller-coaster with them, you talk about happiness, struggle, fun and excitement.

This isn’t easy for anyone as far as I know. Even if you go out with someone 3 or 4 times, conversation still takes some effort. That is because both people are unable to be vulnerable. So don’t beat yourself up too bad.
My only other tip would be to let her talk. If I find there is an awkward pause, I ask the girl about herself and things she’s interested in. Especially if you are asking her to go further into detail about something she was talking about previously. It shows you were listening.

Your and her Hobbies, your and her personal experiences, your and her funny anecdotes, your and her life goals and dreams,… etc
Tom can share personal stories that happened and you can show interest in her personal stories, you can joke around, tease her, roast her,

If ur on a date ask about her. People love talking about themselves.
[–]baddog992 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I made a script in my head. So when I went on a date I would have at least have something to talk about. You could do the same. Just write something out and memorize it. It doesn't have to be word for word. Try to make it funny and interesting. I talked about my job in inventory and the time I went into state prison. We were doing inventory for the state.

Getting to sex is like a sales pitch you are trying to make to an interested buyer. Class is in session:

I hope this inspires you to think about what sort of topics you need to be talking about with women in order to sell more effectively, and close reliably. The aren't on a date with you to get out of the rain.

Emersion, decide who the best social person is you know well. Spend time with that person in a social setting then observe and emulate.
[–]SlugTheToad 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
practice and look for women whom with you would like to talk about things you are doing in your life rn
oh, and live your life, so that you can talk about things you are doing, otherwise, you'll have to find a girl who lives a similar life to yours (I don't know your circumstances), that's just my two cents

Focus more on activities, implement purposeful pause in your game, let her lead a conversation from time to time, say things that require some reaction from her. Also, you may be just not compatible and your conversation dies because there is not enough interest between you.
You can really just focus on present and near past/future and see if the words will you take you somewhere far naturally.
[–]Chicagoj1563 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
There are a few ways you can go with this.
First, get her talking about herself. Ask her open ended questions and that should get her talking.
Second, you already know what to say to keep the conversation going, you just don't realize it. You are worried that what you say will not be good, or make you look bad and this puts you into your head where your thinking mind shuts off. If you learn to free flow without judgement of yourself, you would be able to talk and talk without issue.
Work on not caring if what you say isn't good enough. Try self amusement and making yourself laugh. Or just say whatever you want in the moment as you would when your with friends.

I've removed this because I don't believe you've used the word "retardation" properly in describing your issue, and the word is touchy enough that it got reported by some people. Used properly, I wouldn't remove it
