K so I'm looking for a bit of advice here, I like a girl who I know likes me back, but we can never keep a good conversation going.

We hooked up once at a party (we were both drinking, so we don't really know each other) but ever since we've been talking to each other on MSN pretty much daily, only problem is we never have much to talk about.

I'm going out with her this weekend, but I really don't know much of anything about her, and the conversations we end up having are short and akward.

Just small talk really, any advice on some topics to get a more solid conversation between us? I'm sure she's probably in the same boat as me, because I know she likes me, but she never has much to say either.

Any input is appreciated.

Star_07 agony auntHmmm..perhaps she is shy? Maybe she is nervous? If that is the case then keep trying to talk to her, maybe she will come out of her shell!

jm81690 agony auntWell I do try to bring up topics and music and movies, how her weekend was, etc.

She just gives short answers though and doesn't really carry it through ith a conversation so I'm having a pretty hard time communicating with this girl.

Hi there, its hard at first to start a conversation off but the only thing tha might help is if you find out what she likes - music, movies, sports etc and get her talking about that....

Or else ask her what she wants to do after school or college ie would she like to go travelling and if she says yes where etc.

Star_07 agony auntWhen meeting new people or even talking to people I know, I always find myself talking about the things Im interested in and seeing what they are interested in. What does she like to do? What do you like to do? What do you believe about this topic or that topic. Tell her stories and maybe she will engage in the conversation. For example, Im really into music so if someone happens to like the same type of music, then I may talk about concerts I have been to. Or if someone likes camping then I might talk about funny camping trips or what not. The list is ENDLESS but its good to know what each other likes to do and what they have done. Thats how I get to know people anyways!

Good Luck!

hi well sometimes getitn the conversation flowing can eb ahrd unless your a chatter box. i would surgest asking her questions just simple ones like how was your day if shes done alot ask what kind of music shes into what food she likes etc think of some before you meet her like a questiona nd answer session tell her she can ask you questions and it dosent matter if its the same questions you have asked her. that way itl open it up to discussion say you asked her what was her favorate film she would say one n you could ask why and get into a converstaion about it.
