Hey, guys, I don't have a problem approaching a hot babe, or talking to her, etc... but I have a problem sustaining a conversation. Any advice or point me out to where I can find something useful?

tl;dr: Learn conversation threading.

It's so simple, and after I learned about it, I was amazed that I could suddenly carry on long conversations with anyone.

This is also my current sticking point. I've caught myself doing interview style and not holding her attention.

I've got a few ideas that I'll try tomorrow and I figure I can share.

Say the first thing that pops into your head, regardless of how random it seems.
Make up an obviously fake, over-the-top story
Have some canned material

There's probably some better ways to get over this hump, but it doesn't seem to draw attention from seddit often enough to make the sidebar.

The moment you stop trying to have a conversation, is when you start having a conversation. In other words, you aren't listening to what she's saying because you're too busy thinking of what to say.

Talk less. Only when you need to. Talk slow. Its easy. Dont have the 'I'm so happy to be here' look or gush at the girl.
