Hi guys, Sunday I have my first date and I’m freaking out. I’m afraid of running out of things to say. The girl is super interested, she invited me out, I just didn’t want to spoil it. What topics could I keep in mind if my social skills don’t work?
We are both 18 years old and I studied with her since I was child, but we were never very close.

Calm down, If you want topics, Maybe ask about movies or if you guys have a shared interest. Or diss a teacher everyone hates or how hard school is, It’s a really good icebreaker to trash talk our school afterall it’s a hell hole. Go to a cool place, eat something good and talk about how you guys felt about the date and what you guys wanna do next. I hope it helps AND GOOD LUCK BUDDY, DONT BE NERVOUS, ATLEAST TRY NOT TO BE. If you are, Maybe tell it to her, that worked for me-
Have some general things in your mind that you want to ask her don’t prepare a speech or anything but just think about what YOU want to know about her, after that let the conversation flow dude. There is a certain art to conversation and you have to practice. Don’t have any expectations just talk to her like you would any other person. The thing about conversation it’s like a ride just ride the wave and go with the flow you never know where the conversation can take you.
Be interested in her and ask a lot of follow up questions, good luck!
For what it’s worth I *promise* that the lead up to the date is way more nerve wracking than the date itself. The worst is already over.
Otherwise don’t worry if there’s a lul or two in conversation and remember that it’s not your job to impress her. Your only job is to present an authentic and engaged version of yourself.
Listen to her when she speaks, ask questions about her and her interests. Insert things about yourself if she’s talking about her hobbies, when she is wrapping up talk about yours. If the conversation flows well and y’all are giving with one another be the one to ask her for a second date. Especially since she asked for the first.
