Title: Quick, phone advice.
Post by: Daddy on October 28, 2008, 08:48:34 PM
If I don't know what to say or talk about, but I really want to talk to someone on the phone how do I make sure I keep an interesting conversation without long awkward silences?  :(

I don't know. Last time I talked to a girl on the phone she never wanted to speak with me again. I'm terrible at talking to people on the phone. :(

Act like you're extremely drunk to the point that you're barely comprehensible and liable to make rash, irreversible decisions.

I don't know. I hate phone conversations and they're by far my least favorite method of communication.

here are some things i go for:

- ask them about their day
- what they're doing on the weekend
- what they want to do with their life
- about a friend you and that person have in common, how they met and what not
- if they've ever seen someone die (i actually ask this to people i don't know too well a lot)
- what they do on their spare time
- what school they went to
- favorite (place noun here)

for someone you want to be in a relationship with
- bout their first kiss
- first real partner

ask them anything, questions start conversations.

You know you can talk to me about anything, if you need to. I'll give you my cell number.
And I'm the definition of awkward, so silence isn't an issue.

You could do what Cam does and just start singing some random song when you run out of things to say
