Tips on Conversation When Dating

Here are some simple tips on conversation when you're out dating or trying to get a date. What topics to pick, how to develop your conversational skills and other advice to help you win more dates.

Tips on Conversation

1. Keep your conversation mostly about your partner. People love it when you spot that they are the centre of their universe.

2. Don’t just ask a list of random questions, you are aiming for depth.

3. Look for intimacy rather than information with your questions.

4. Keep the conversation light enough to allow them to open up rather than feel interrogated.

5. Get your potential partner to talk about things that excite them or they find fun, anything that lights their lights. Something magical occurs when they connect your face with those feelings of excitement; they actually begin to regard you as fun and exciting.

6. Keep in mind that you’re in this conversation to get the option of a date. Make sure that every question you ask leads in the general direction of seduction. Simply put, everything they and you talk about should be in the vein of feeling happy and maybe even excited about life.

7. Aim to leave the person feeling a little bit better about themselves. Get good at giving compliments without sounding creepy.

8. Men - although there's a lot of demeaning padding and rubbish in the 'pick up artist' stuff you can get on the internet, one area of conversation that does give results is being cocky with a humorous edge. It takes practice, and it's definitely an advanced dating conversation tip, but it can work unbelievably well. 

Conversational Skills

The thing that always gets me about tips, useful as they can be, is that if you don't apply them they will be useless to you!

So what are you going to do with these tips?

Conversation is a skill - which means you'll need to practice the tips for a few days each for them to become a natural part of your conversation.

I suggest you take a note of them or print them off and aim to focus on just one tip at a time in all of your conversations (dating or otherwise). Do this for a minimum of 3 days per tip and your conversational skills can't help but improve. Obviously the ones that are strictly related to dating you'll need to keep to those conversations!
