Good Topics to Talk About on a First Date

ByEric S Mortensen
If you are like most people on this earth, sometimes a first date can be kind of intimidating. Our brains have the tendency to go right out the window. There is nothing worse than having awkward silence when you are trying to think of something to say but you just can't come up with anything. For those awkwardly silent moments we have come up with 5 questions to get the conversion moving again.
What Do You Do For Work?
Yes, this seems like a pretty basic question but believe it or not when people get nervous they forget to ask this question. This is a great starter because most people can talk for quite some time about what they do and you might find out that you have more in common than you originally thought.
Who Is Your Favorite Band Or Music Group?
You can learn a lot about someone based on their musical tastes. So no matter if you are music buff or not music is a great way to find some common ground more often than not.
What Is Your Favorite Dessert?
Everyone loves dessert and most of us have had a favorite since the time we were kids. So find out what your date's favorite dessert is and then see if you can guess what they would order at the restaurant based on what they have to say.
Do You Like To Travel?
Seeing if someone likes to travel and where they like to travel to is a great way to know some of their passions in life. If you can get someone talking about their adventures traveling you can really get to see their true colors.
If You Had One Wish What Would It Be?
This is always a fun question to see if they would solve world hunger or if they would buy that new watch they were looking at. It is a great way to have fun and see what type of person they truly are.
What Do You Like To Do In Your Spare Time?
Finding out your date's hobbies can be fun and you might find out that you both share the unique interest of juggling flaming swords. (Hey it may be a long shot but stranger things have happened)
So don't get stuck with nothing to say on your date. These 6 topics can make sure you always have something to talk about and can be the cure for the dreaded awkward silence that can kill even the best first date.

What To Talk About With Girls - Conversation Tactics

ByLesley Anne Yabut-Pangilinan
When it comes to talking to women, very few guys understand how to "connect" with girls through the use of effective conversation. Regardless of what you might have been heard or read, no one has ever actually figured out the exact words that will make a girl feel instant attraction. There are, however, some guidelines you can follow to make your conversations with women flow more naturally, and make them feel comfortable in your presence.
My first piece of advice is to be more original with the questions you ask, and the topics you introduce into the conversation. You can bet she's already been asked a million times about where she's from, what she does for a living, what she likes to do on the weekends, etc. Asking these questions make you seem like just another ordinary guy who isn't at ease talking to women.
Instead of asking these generic questions, try turning them into "educated guesses." For example, instead of asking her were she works, you could say: "I get the sense that you've got a pretty demanding job, which you're very good at...but on the weekends, you like to cut loose and blow off steam. So what are some of your favorite hangout spots?"
As far as conversational topics, two topics I like to use when talking to girls are fashion, and "relationship drama." These are subjects that women naturally find interesting. Here are some examples of how I might introduce these topics into the conversation. Notice how I "frame" them in the context of a story about a friend of mine:
Talking To Girls About Fashion
"So let me ask you a quick question. My friend Eric just broke up with his girlfriend and he's back on the singles scene. The problem is that his dating skills are a bit rusty and he's not feeling very confident. Personally, I think one way for a guy to boost his confidence is for him to buy some new clothes and try a new style. So, I told Eric I would take him to the mall this weekend and help him pick out some cool clothes. I can tell you've got great style...is there a store you would recommend?"
Talking To Girls About Relationship Drama
Women enjoy talking about relationships, and if there's an element of "drama" they really get intrigued and want to share their opinions. So you could tell a story like this:
"My friend Jennifer started dating this guy recently, and she saw on his Facebook page that he's still chatting almost every day with his ex-girlfriend. He told Jennifer that they're just friends and there's no longer anything romantic going on between them, but Jennifer isn't comfortable with it...she'd really prefer that he stop talking to his ex completely. How would you feel in that situation? Is it OK for a guy you're dating to still carry on a close friendship with his ex?"
Those were two conversational topics you can use when you talk to girls. Now I want to give you instant access to my MOST POWERFUL conversation secrets. These are the best ways to "open" your interactions so that you always talk to a girl you like...
But I have to warn you first... if you're a "nice guy" who just wants to "be friends" with women and take things slow... these controversial seduction techniques are not for you.
However if you're ready to TURBO CHARGE your "game" with women, and learn how to start a fun conversation in any situation, read this: http://www.whattotalkaboutwithagirl.net

5 Things You Ought to Know About Cougar Dating

Maybe you're just one of few older women in society who's been thinking about dating younger men. Back in the old days, this was considered to be taboo, but there has been a tremendous transition in social perception, and this has allowed several women all over the world to expand their options. All you need is an open mind in order to be successful in cougar dating. However, there are 5 things you will need to be aware of before you decide to invest in such a lifestyle:

1. Keep an open mind. Some women in the world in the 40s-50s range have somewhat become rather reserved, unlike during younger years when they were at their most active, sexually speaking. However, there are a number of them who are actually in touch with their primal side as they grow older, and you need to be open to the fact that you want to date a younger male. Once you carry that certain vibe, you can easily attract men.

2. It's a different generation. Young men these days have significantly different perceptions about life compared to the baby boomers and Generation X-ers. A lot of them actually admire women who are independent and have a place in society, and may also be more sincere with his courtships, which makes it something to appreciate.

3. Dating a younger man can help you learn many things. Because of their drastically different viewpoints, you are opening your world up to whole new possibilities. Because of this, you just may be enlightened to the world in his eyes and see it much differently for the first time. Both of you will have certain similarities, but it's the differences that will excite you.

4. Though the term "cougar" resonates power and domination, don't expect the younger man to be a toy. He may actually handle certain matters in a way you can't, and may actually allow you to become freer and more accepting of the person you've always wanted to be. Don't mold him to be someone you want him to be and you just might end up being satisfied.

5. When it comes to cougar dating, you may not even realize it but the male you're dating might actually be more sexually active than you've ever been. You may learn a few tricks from him that will leave you grinning from ear to ear during your quality time. Self expression should be encouraged during these moments, in order to keep your relationship healthy.
