Have you ever found yourself in a situation where the conversation on the first date just doesn't go well?
Agree, this happens quite often - you try to talk about one thing or another, but the conversation keeps coming to naught.
As a result, the meeting that promised to be pleasant turns into real torture: you and your partner sit in silence, and in your head you only think about how to get home as quickly as possible.
Don't rush to mourn a failed relationship - we'll tell you how to find a way out of the situation.
How to Avoid Awkward Silences in Conversation on a First Date
First, let's remember: a first date is something like an interview. This means that the better you prepare for it, the better it will go.
Before the meeting, find out about your partner's interests. If you come across something unfamiliar, google it - this way you will have at least a rough idea of what is being discussed.
As a result of these simple steps, you will have a whole list of topics on hand that you can discuss if the conversation reaches a dead end.
If you haven’t prepared in advance, it’s not a problem: you have the opportunity to find out everything you’re interested in right during the date.
Feel free to ask questions and don’t be shy about clarifying if something remains unclear: your sincere interest, on the contrary, is a sign that you like the person you’re talking to.
And, of course, talk about yourself – it’s quite possible that you’ll find some common ground that will give you a reason to meet again.
