8 Ways to Talk to a Girl and Keep the Conversation Going




Talking to girls you’re interested in can be scary, but it doesn’t have to be as long as you know how to keep the conversation going. Even if you don’t get her number, if you can keep the conversation going and keep her interested, she’ll want to see you again in the future. Here are 8 ways to talk to a girl and keep the conversation going.


1) Ask open questions

Instead of asking direct questions, you can keep your conversation going by asking open-ended questions. For example, if you’re talking about her day, instead of asking what she did today, ask how her day was. This gives her more freedom in answering and makes it easier for you to follow up with another question about what she said. Asking lots of open-ended questions will help keep a conversation going without feeling awkward or forced.


2) Turn your listening into talking

Guys can get nervous and talk more than they listen. Women love men who listen to them, so remember that you’re not just trying to keep a conversation going (you can do that by asking questions), but have an actual conversation with her. This means you need to know how to keep quiet at times—and ask engaging questions about things she tells you about herself.


3) Be playful

Girls love men who have a sense of humor. In fact, research has shown that women view funny guys as more attractive! The next time you see a girl you like, keep your tone lighthearted. Make some playful quips or silly jokes—anything to get her laughing. This way, she’ll associate laughter with being around you. When you meet up again later, she’ll remember how much fun she had hanging out with you last time and want to recreate that experience!


4) Don’t be afraid to sell yourself

People like others who are confident, so you need to be able to sell yourself in order for them to want you around. Make sure they know your strong points and don’t be afraid of talking about what you can offer them. If there’s a hint of desperation or shyness in your voice or your actions, it’ll likely turn people off. Be honest and confident, but also listen carefully when they talk about themselves.


5) Show her you are an interesting person

A lot of guys will try too hard to be funny, or they’ll talk at girls and never really listen. If you want her to like you, show her that you are interested in what she has to say! Make sure that you get her name (or what’s your name?), then use it every once in a while in conversation. Notice something about her and ask about it: Does she have an accent? Are those earrings new? Why does that t-shirt have French on it? This shows you pay attention, which is sexy as hell. Ask questions back: Do most people call you John or Johnny? What was your major in college? Where did you grow up? You can also ask general questions—such as how do people usually pronounce your last name [Her surname]—which shows interest without getting personal right away. 



6) Take note of her body language

The first thing you’ll want to do is see if she’s open for interaction. This can be done by subtly studying her body language. Pay attention to whether she’s engaged in what she’s doing or not. If her face is pointed towards someone else, it could be that she’s busy talking with them and isn’t interested in starting up a conversation with you just yet.


7) Give compliments, but don’t overdo it

It’s always nice to be told you’re pretty or handsome, but try not to overdo it. Complimenting her on specific traits (not just her appearance) will help keep things interesting in conversation. You have gorgeous eyes or I really like your style shows that you’re interested in more than just looks. If you say something thoughtful, she will appreciate it and likely return the favor—giving you another chance at impressing her!


8) Ask what she likes about you

The first thing you should do when talking to someone you’re interested in is ask them what they like about you. Not what they like about your personality, but things specific about your physical appearance, your fashion sense, or anything else that could be important. The best way to learn what it is that people notice most about you (and therefore, how you can improve) is to just ask them.

3 Reasons Dating Makes You Feel Depressed

It’s well known that depression can come from feeling lonely, but what about when the loneliness isn’t yours? When you’re dating, whether it’s casually or seriously, you can find yourself in situations where you feel left out, rejected, or lonely despite being in a relationship. Dating makes you feel depressed because of three reasons: low self-esteem, lack of communication, and unreasonable expectations. If you can fix these issues, you won’t have to deal with dating-related depression anymore! 1) Checking your phone all the time If you’re dating and spending a lot of time with someone, it’s inevitable that you two will text each other.

Put your phone down and spend some quality time with your special someone instead. It’ll be worth it when you look back on your relationship later. Remember t...

The 10 Best Ways to Build a Happy Relationship

When it comes to creating lasting, happy relationships, how do you know what’s going to work and what isn’t? Learning the ins and outs of how to build a happy relationship can be challenging — especially if you’re doing it on your own.

This guide will help you take the guesswork out of knowing how to build a happy relationship by teaching you 10 of the best ways to ensure that your partner feels supported and loved every single day. 1) Get Regular Dates It’s easy to let dates with your partner fall by the wayside when you’re both busy. That’s why it’s crucial to build regular dating time into your routine. Pick a day or two each week, and use that as an opportunity for some one-on-one fun with your mate.

10 Ways to Make Him Chase

If you like him, and you want him to chase you (and not lose interest) once he gets to know you, there are some things you can do to make sure that happens. Here are ten things you can do that will make him chase you and keep your relationship fun and exciting! 1) Flirt and avoid Flirting and a good first date is important because it sets you up for later. Avoid being too available; make him work for it a little bit. When he texts, don’t answer right away. Wait 2-3 hours (and if he’s waiting that long, he really wants to talk to you). This will drive him crazy and force him to chase you. It’s time-consuming but totally worth it in the end! 2) Don’t give all your attention One of the easiest ways to make a man feel comfortable is by letting him know that he has your full attention. Men are simple creatures—they want what they can’t have, and if he feels like he can walk all over you then he won’t be as interested in you. To prevent him from taking advantage of your vulnerability, only g...
