donnieosmond Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Hey guys, I have a question about incorporating humor on my dates. My friends would describe me as a pretty funny guy, but it seems like when I go out on dates there tends to me more awkward pauses then I'm comfortable with (and usually my date is comfortable with) and it sucks! I do a lot of online dating through Match.com and I can wow girls into a first date within a day on there by being witty and funny over the computer, but once we get on the date I just can't think of funny things to say! It's very confusing and frustrating for me. Occasionally I can throw a joke or two in, but you can only do that so often. If I was hanging out with my friends, I can easily think of funny things to say. Does anyone have any suggestions for me on what's going on? Thanks alot.
Tomcat33 Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 Dude why are you so worried about making women laugh on dates? If they wanted a comedy act they can go to a comedy club. Just be yourself on a date and don't force it, and stop trying to pull rabbits out of your butt for them. They should like you as you are and in time and when you become more comfortable with them your conversation will flow. Some first dates are more awkward than others.
Dumbledore Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 , and stop trying to pull rabbits out of your butt If I had a rabbit in my butt, then I would let it stay for as long as it wanted to.

Green Posted February 14, 2009 Posted February 14, 2009 I'll echo tomcat and say don't worry about being funny. What your doing wrong is your forgeting to have fun on the date! its not life or death... haha I mean it could be life if the condom breaks lol (not funny on a date or posibly ever) Look just go in there and look at the girl and no matter how bad you want her to like you put yourself as first priority and make sure you are enjoying the date... if you think it would be funny to say something and see how she reacts and you don't really care wheather she laughs or not she will be more likely to laugh because you are being genuine. And you'll enjoy the date more and I gaurantee your results as far as humor will be better.
