Conversation Starters, Part 1

At Perfect Partners, we wish every date you have to be fun, light, and comfortable. But we understand that, if you have been out of circulation for a while, it can also be intimidating and overwhelming. Especially when you’re meeting someone for the first time. So over the next few blog posts we’ll give you some easy conversation starters, to help your personality come shining through.

Conversation starter #1: Hobbies. Ask your partner to tell you about what interests him or her, whether it’s sports, the outdoors, cars, video games . . . the list is endless. This will also help you discover interests you have in common.

Conversation starter #2: Music. Most people enjoy some kind of music. Find out where your interests overlap, and where they do not. You can talk about concerts you’ve attended, or bands that you are currently following.

Conversation starter #3: Books. Do you enjoy reading? Maybe your date does, also. Talk about a book you’ve read recently, and find out what type of books interest your date.

Conversation starter #4: Pets. Nearly everyone has a pet, or remembers having one as a child. Share happy stories with each other about animals that have been important in your life.

Give these conversation starters a try, and see what common interests they spark.

Until next time,
Chrissy
