Toodaloo Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 1. Family 2. Where she grew up 3. Her Job 4. Education I was watching a video and it was stated that these are dull topics for a 1st date when trying to make a connection. Guess that has been my problem I am screwed... I spent my last date with both of us showing each other really cute pictures of our nieces and nephews and talking about our siblings and parents... We talked about where we grew up and what it was like. What we did and didn't like about it. We spoke about work. Again what we like and don't like about it. Didn't chat about education as we had then moved on to talking about pets and showing each other cute pictures of pets... Blimey. Guess I better be more witty or something... 1
LookAtThisPOst Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 I am scratching my head at posts like these when even havinghavintvinvintoggl ...having to worry about what is "boring" when conversing about these topics? ? It's only a matter of opinion of what is considered "boring"...is it not? Also if the person gets so bored easily, why even date them?? [thehenhdatg15;6256144]1. Family 2. Where she grew up 3.

Guess I better be more witty or something... - it depends on how you approach it... is it done in a prying way, or just small-talk? Sharing pics of family can be fun. I'll give you a quick example of how it can be fun. If you ask me about my job, I might say, "I'm a writer. It's a lot better than my old job down at the the..................................... ...................wait for it................... ..............asbestos factory! Just don't let it turn into an interview. Deflect with humor or change the subject, or ask the same question back to shut it down.
Rejected Rosebud Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 1. Tell me about your day! 2. Have you seen (band, movie, art exhibit, Walking Dead episode, whatever) 3. what do you think of this place? (where you're meeting) 4. Share a funny story about your day I guess what I am saying is that it's the time to see if you can have good rapport with the person and not the time to find out about all the big stuff, that can come later.
wb1988 Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Depends on the person, but hopes dreams aspirations personal bitches (we all have them and love to air them) I was going to say something like that as well. The OP is correct, those PUA nono topics are there because she's been asked that a million times and even when someone asks you it feels like you're talking out a soundtrack (boring a fk).
Author smg15 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Posted April 7, 2015 Sounds like a positive experience on the whole, don't over think things as it just fills your mind which a ton of what if's and makes you worry with no reason. She responded to my text this morning asking how I am enjoying my day off. So I will contact her some this week to set up a second date
Fhsjkfjrhsdh3646 Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 She responded to my text this morning asking how I am enjoying my day off. So I will contact her some this week to set up a second date You responded to her again last night after she said she made it home?
Author smg15 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Posted April 7, 2015 You responded to her again last night after she said she made it home? Yeah 5 hours later. I only sent one text after she told me she was home
rester Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Yeah 5 hours later. I only sent one text after she told me she was home What time was that? 3am?
Author smg15 Posted April 7, 2015 Author Posted April 7, 2015 What time was that? 3am? 2am right before I went to sleep and her response came at 11am this morning.
Fhsjkfjrhsdh3646 Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 2am right before I went to sleep and her response came at 11am this morning. You don't text a girl in the middle of the night unless it's a booty call. You can text her RIGHT after you get home (as long as its before or around the time she gets home most likely), and give her a good night/made it home safe text, but after her reply you go silent. Earliest response you should make is the following afternoon.
