View Full Version : It's good to talk
Gash Wed, 21st Nov '01, 6:12pm Help.
I've been going out with this girl since saturday (Dr Love strikes again) but she WILL NOT SPEAK TO ME!!
I phone her up and I'm the one doing all the talking. Anyone who knows me will tell you I can talk about anything for ages.Literally. I need good conversation topics, and this is where you guys come in.
Suggest to me random things i can say that may inspire conversation from her :)
The Grim Ripper Wed, 21st Nov '01, 6:41pm Did you use the wrong option on her? you might of- wait, is this a REAL LIFE girlfriend? *faints*
ArchAngel Wed, 21st Nov '01, 6:58pm No lasting relationship will work if only one speaks. So find a way to make her talk or break up. How could you make her talk?
Interests, family, ask her about roleplaying :p, music. The future and vacations are always great. heh.
Just don't force her to speak. She will think "stop stalking me". ohhh. Are you stalking her? :D :p

Sir Belisarius Wed, 21st Nov '01, 7:05pm Talk about hockey, BG, breast sizes, website design...It works in the chat! ;)
Spudsquisher Wed, 21st Nov '01, 7:15pm maybe you are phoning her too much! give her some space, if you start crouding her after only going out for a few days, she is gonna think you are some major possesive nutter, and will just stop things, be slick, be cool, wait for her to ring you. and if you call and she is washing her hair.. she may well be, people are always calling me when i am washing my hair - takes about 20 mins - so just chill
Silverblade Wed, 21st Nov '01, 7:29pm Just call her and ask her how her day was. She starts telling about her day and if she starts telling about something you like to do too, you have an immediate conversations. Other questions you ask anyone else are also good, like 'Have you heard about...?", "Did you see ... on tv too?", but not "Nice weather, isn't it?"
Gash Wed, 21st Nov '01, 7:53pm Thanx guys but I KNOW I'm not phoning her too much or being possessive - twice in the last three days is OK I think (well it worked with the others :D).
Extremist Wed, 21st Nov '01, 8:22pm For God's sake...
Gash, stop phoning her already! Set a date, get her somewhere "an eye to an eye", and all truths will be revealed.
Errrrr, not all, but at least the truth about how talkative she in fact is. The rest of truths (or should I say: details) you can't see over the phone, can you? :evil:
herf Wed, 21st Nov '01, 8:38pm Gash, it may just be me but I absolutely detest talking on the phone, when I get together with girls it's usually one of the first things I tell them. I tell them not to expect too much of a conversation on the phone, if they wanna tell me anything then they either have to meet me in person, do it through sms or talk on the net, but I just can't talk on the phone. She might be the same.
Ask her out, go to the cinema or whatever, it's much easier to talk in person, but that's just what I find.
Shadow_Goddess Wed, 21st Nov '01, 10:55pm Me too. I might be a girl but that doesn't mean I like talking on the phone. Net suits me best. And if you want to get her talking, ask her how was her day and stuff. Just make sure you don't poke at her too much.
Spudsquisher Wed, 21st Nov '01, 11:00pm he's poking at her already? my god! the youth of today...
Sniper Thu, 22nd Nov '01, 11:06am Hmm, if i was you and if my girl was your girl, i'd just ask basic stuff like hows your day on the phone, text messages etc. and then ask her the qestion of "wold you like to go out to the movies some time" or something like that ... its been said i know but heck! this is what i would do...
Headbanger Thu, 22nd Nov '01, 1:33pm Talk about horses and shopping and makeup.... :D
Sniper Thu, 22nd Nov '01, 4:21pm Why bother talk about horses? I'd have thought that make-up, trinkits and clothes would have done... and try to pay attention to the interests you have in common...
Satiana Fearbringer Thu, 22nd Nov '01, 6:14pm Gash----I would definetly just call and ask her to go out again. When you take her out---you might want to ask her where she would like to go or what she would like to do. If she answers you on the where or the what, then you should automatically have something to talk about once you get there, cause you will know at least one of her interests.
I know this is might be hard---but don't be afraid not to talk and just let silence fill the space. It isn't always a bad thing.
But, whatever you do, don't just assume she likes the regular "girly" type things, cause she may not!!!! And don't make her feel like she has to talk to you, because then she may feel trapped and want out. She open up to you in her own way, just give her time.
Gash Thu, 22nd Nov '01, 8:25pm ..thanx for the advice guys but she dumped me this morning. :( She said it twas too long distance.
Sniper Fri, 23rd Nov '01, 1:00am She dumped you because it was long distance? how long to be exact? :mad:
Enagonios Fri, 23rd Nov '01, 10:18am That girl rhymes with itch. I've known my share too. Too "long distance"? GAWDS! What'll they come up with next? :flaming: Well, at least you didn't spend much yet since you just went out last sat right? :heh:
The Grim Ripper Fri, 23rd Nov '01, 4:51pm *gets back up*. The girls will start complaining about the size of your nails next. "tsk, 1mm to large. DUMPED!". at least you can get a date:(...
Extremist Fri, 23rd Nov '01, 5:08pm Whatever Gash.
First take some time (a minute or two of course) to say her goodbye inside yourself.
Second, just say: NEXT!
Satiana Fearbringer Mon, 26th Nov '01, 5:40pm Thats a shame Gash----your probably too good for her anyway. You a good looking guy with a personality----you will find someone better than her.
Sniper Mon, 26th Nov '01, 7:12pm Why not advertise yourself here? Post a picture and see if you can somehow get a girlfriend ...
Gash Wed, 12th Dec '01, 10:19pm Party on Saturday....I love setting other people up more than I actually do going out with people :p Anyone interested in my services?
Shadow_Goddess Wed, 12th Dec '01, 11:26pm Saturday? Lemme see... My boy friend's (it's spaced ok? I'm single) b-day is on Friday and he's takin a bunch of people out to lunch... Twin day on Friday too... With Dudette of course :wave: Next Friday is the dance and the last day of school before christmas holidays...
Sniper Sat, 15th Dec '01, 7:29pm I was brousing around HMV in Singapore roughly 4 hours ago and then i get approached by this girl who gives me her number ... now i'm in a dilema :p ... i've a girlfriend waiting in England whom i really like and then there si this girl's number ... do i call her? or do i remain true to my girl? Gash, i leave this in your hands, my minds already made up but i'd like to hear your ideas on this ... :evil:
Xaelifer Sun, 16th Dec '01, 1:57am My advice to you is this: Tell her who you are not who you said you were, frame her for killing you, kidnap her children and sell them to a monkey vendor in Africa. Then make sure everyone thinks you're a poor cripple and make even more money through a bin on the street.
Best way to deal with 'em.
Gash Sun, 16th Dec '01, 4:11pm Sniper I think you should stay true to your girl...maybe even tell her about how you resisted temptation :D
gollum Mon, 17th Dec '01, 8:25am Ya Gash is right you might get some points
Fergus Mon, 17th Dec '01, 5:16pm Dodgy guys,
Tell your girlfriend that someone else is interested in you ?
No way, keep your mouth shut. She may take the news the wrong way and accuse you of fancying this other girl.
DON'T SAY ANYTHING TO HER.
mark, the beneficial shah Mon, 17th Dec '01, 6:04pm Ah, no offence, but I realy do not think you can use that excuse on an island smaller than NY state. Even if she lived on the tip of Scottland, isn't that like a four hour drive at the most???
I know people who have flown to Hawaii from the east coast for (Bleep!).
Have you tried meditation? It's been my experience many pholk from Britain (and everywhere else for that matter.)can be very closed up emotionaly, so I always suggest a revamping of your vibes though a "letting go" of your defences and feelings for others. Finding your center and working your way outward, so that everything you are is just great by your standards. So, in time you can be more positive that it was her and not you that was making the errors.
And don't drown your mistakes in alchahol. You'll end up even worse than before.

Sniper Tue, 18th Dec '01, 4:50pm Er ... wot?
In simple terms?
Christopher_Lee Fri, 22nd Feb '02, 1:27pm Talk about cricket. Or the shipping forcast. In those interesting silences, throw in interesting facts about Norman Britain.
the god Fri, 22nd Feb '02, 1:34pm the fact she didn't talk enough was an excellent indication that she was going to dump you!
girls who talk too much are much better, usually means they're nervous and really interested. go find yourself a girl with OCD.
