Being a Good Conversationalist
- Ask a question. You might ask, "Where do you work out?" or,
"Where's your favorite restaurant?"
- Tell an interesting story about what you have done recently. You might
have visited the White House or learned a new sport.
- Talk about the moment. Tell how you feel about where you are and what
you are doing. For example, you might say, "I'm excited to meet you,"
"I love industrial decor of bistros like this," or "This is my
first calm moment after such a crazy day."
Some people seem to be born conversationalists or good talkers. but most
people have to learn the skill by practice, getting a sense of what makes other
people respond positively. Here are some tips to help you be engaging on your
date:
- Talk about subjects that are meaningful to you (from cooking to
volunteering at a soup kitchen) so the other person can sense your passion.
