"First date" questions?

Hi.

I've always been a shy guy (mind my age) and most of the girls in my classes know so, but now my father and I took a the next 4 days off to go relax and do some errands at a house far from my own - so the chances of me bumping into one of them 200km's away from usual is very low. However, there's also a good chance I bump into a girl here at the camp - and here I have a clean slate with everyone. Do you guys have any good questions that could keep the conversation continually going between us? Pretty weird since I only talk to them once in a while and evens more rarely on online games - so I'm useless here c: Feel free to post your Do's, Dont's and experienced

Don't: Ask about ex's or anything like that

Don't: Talk just about yourself or just about her. Keep it even.

 

I've never even talked to a girl with the intent of romance, so take this with lotsa salt.

Someone told Luke and Linus at CES 2017 to "Unban the legend known as Jerakl" and that's about all I've got going for me. (It didn't work)

First off start by asking what kinda GPU she's packing, then instincts should just take over

Calm down, is not like taking to a girl, oh wait I meant to say is not rocket science. Really just calm down, is not like a girl is something out of this world or anything, it's just a girl. 

Having said that... Don't talk unless you are being asked something, keep your back straight, don't look her in the eyes, behave yourself Flashie  :ph34r:

We discuss everything on LTT.

 

Except why we dislike the mods.

 

Don't do that.

That sentence doesn't even make sense.

Here's my Tech Pickup Lines thread xD

"Girl are you on ISO cuz I'd like to mount you"

 

 

@Toxicable top question so far :) @burnttoastnice yeah, wasn't sure or not, but what better advice to get, than from fellow techies :P

Just talk to people normally but approach her on your own. Ask whoever it may be for their name and just talk to them. It's not that hard.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

Some tips:

  • Act/be interested in them.
  • Ask open ended questions (For example: "What kind of food do you like?" vs "Do you like Japanese food?")
  • Keep eye contact when talking.
  • Don't keep recycling your answers over and over.

These are some general socializing tips. They work really well, but not many people apply them. :T

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600X            | Cooler: Deepcool AK400  | Motherboard: B550 Elite AX V2  | Storage: Samsung 980 Pro 1TB  |

RAM: Corsair Vengeance 16GB   | GPU: MSI RTX 3060 Ti    | Case: NZXT H440 (Red/Black)    | PSU: EVGA 650W G2             |
