Being a Good Conversationalist
In The New Millennium: Don't be afraid to toot
your own horn. Hopefully you'll be appreciated and your date will see your fine
points without you having to point them out. But you might as well do just that
-- point them out. I don't mean that you should be a braggart or give yourself
false compliments, but do say nice things about yourself. Talk about your
successes and what you've done that you're proud of. Not only might your date be
impressed, but he'll see your self-esteem, which will only cycle toward making
you feel even better about yourself.
Being afraid to tell a joke
because you're not good at it.
In The New Millennium: Remember, humor is the
most attractive quality. Punctuate your conversation with a joke. Even if you're
not good at joke-telling, you can likely remember and practice telling at least
one. Or say, "I'm not great at joke telling, so roll with me on
this..."
