How can you convey your awesomeness through conversation? Here's the big rule about first dates. Everything surrounding the date, especially conversation, needs to be fun, happy and sexy. Remember this number one rule. We will come back to this. But first let's start off the list of stuff that you shouldn't talk about on the first date. Number one, do not talk about your ex-girlfriend, your past breakup or your divorce. This is not the time nor the place. Remember our big rule? There's nothing fun about breakups. It didn't work out at the last one, which sucks, but those aren't the first things you should be talking about with the girl you just met. Keep the ex conversations to a minimum until you have at least a few more dates. Number two, politics and religion. Do your best to stay away from sensitive topics. This breaks the big rule. In general, there's nothing sexy about politics or religion. There is an exception. If politics or religion define who you are, maybe it's your job, maybe you're a religious person then fine, I understand. You're maybe screening for someone who has similar interests but if none of that describes you then stay away. Number three, don't talk about your problems. Listen, we all have issues and nobody is perfect but a first date is not the time to discuss those. Back to the big rule, keep things happy. If you start talking about how you're stressed out at work or your mom is always nagging you, then you're going to be labeled as a complainer your stress is gonna make her stress and now you're making a bad impression. Okay, enough about what you shouldn't be talking about let me tell you what you should talk about on the first date. Here's a quick list: passions, hobbies and interests. What does she do for fun? What is she interested in? What are you interested in? What's your favorite music and movies? Family background. Ask her about her brothers and sisters, where she grew up and what it was like. Your careers, what do you both do for a living. The date itself, how's the food, any good people watching, what's going on around you that you can comment on? Interesting things you've done over the year. Have you traveled anywhere cool lately, been to any fun concerts? Have any funny or weird stories to share? If you haven't seen a pattern yet let me help you out.
