How To Keep The Conversation Rolling With A Guy
August 26, 2009
Hey Katie,
So, there’s this guy, and in the beginning of the year (Sept. 2008ish), I knew he liked me. He asked me to dance at homecoming, but I kind of said no indirectly. Now it’s June 2009, and I have gotten head over heels for him. He had a girlfriend January but broke up with her around March…which I didn’t know about until recently.
When I was crying on Monday (because of my poor grades), he helped me up and let me cry on his shoulder. Then we talked again the next day, and there were some people passing by joking around asking “Did you ask her yet?” and my crush replied with “We have been going out for three months. I’m dating everyone: you, etc” After that, I was kind of confused.
I don’t know if he’s a shy kind of person or anything like that, but unless there’s actually something to talk about we only talk about that particular thing, and then our conversation’s over…which sucks because I want to talk to him more.
What’s happening?!

Dear Christina,
Sounds like he was being a little sarcastic when telling those people that he was dating everyone. It is possible that he does like you and may be wondering if you like him or not. Since you turned him down at the dance, he may have interpreted that as you not being interested in him.
When you talk to him try and keep the conversation rolling by asking him questions to get him talking about himself and stuff that he is into. For example, if he likes to read ask him about what books he has been reading lately. You can also bring up current issues that you read in a magazine or saw on TV… “Did you see that girl American Idol last week?” Keep yourself informed on what is going on in the world and your community and you will have lots to talk about!
Here are some more of my tips on how you can start up a conversation with a guy and keep the conversation going! Guys are usually not that good at long conversations because girls develop their social skills much earlier than boys. You just need to help keep the conversation flowing and it will be fine.
