What are good conversation topics after you've used up all of the typical ones?

Oh and a cheap trick is rephrasing the stuff their said with different words. Just don't do it too often.

Lol my ex literally only likes talking about himself. If you start to talk about anything else, or about yourself... he disappears.

No one is going to hold your hand through the conversation. Listen to the person you're talking to and ask questions about what they have to say. Ask them how things make them feel. Ask them why they feel that way. Ask them what they think about topics, etc. This really isn't that hard user.

but I run out of questions quickly, or can't think of one to ask

For example
>I prefer big cities because there's more to do and more career opportunities
How do I respond to this? I can't think of a good question.

> I can't think of a good question.
Are you trolling?

>more to do
>more career opportunities
Automatically invite fuckloads of questions. What things? What career? Why? When did she decide on it? What are the alternatives? You'd manage to only ask one question before more shit opens up.

Thanks. I am very likely on the autism spectrum

What about inquiring about someone's weekend, I don't want to be nosey
>I'm having dinner with my parents, and running some errands
How do I respond to this?

dead babies.

no but seriously, it doesn't really matter what you say in most cases, just perfect the art of subtle flirting with everything you say. if she's not a dumbass, and you can have an actual conversation with her, you will know right away, and you won't have to strain to find a topic to discuss.

That one is harder for sure, I'd probably go back to the stuff you were previously talking about. One can always ask about specifics, like what kind of errands but it's also very easy to slide into a hole of mundanity. And keep in mind, while questions are better than nothing, ideally the flow of the conversation doesn't require too many. If you appear to ask stuff all the time, there is a decent chance the other person is bored with the convo.

>I don't want to be nosey
Well, as a rough guideline you can allows put yourself in their spot. Would you perceive a question about your weekend plans as intrusive and nosey? Besides, it's not a huge deal if you go too far and if it wasn't insulting, often you can laugh it away too.

>Oh? Anything fun, or just necessary stuff?
>Are you close to your parents?
>Important errands? Oh crap, I forgot my laundry time again.
>Nice. Do your parents live close by?
>Sounds nice. I always enjoy a dinner with my parents. Is it a big thing or a regular get together?
>Oh that reminds me I need to buy food for my pet duck. What errands do you need to run?

There are a few thousand others I think.

shared interests, like music, current events, opinions on certain things, funny/interesting personal stories, history... that kinda shit

Bro, ask her what kind of music she likes and why. Ask if she has a favorite artist for a genre or whatnot. If she goes to college ask her what her plans are. Maybe ask where she’s from. All sorts of things man. Think of subjects about yourself that you might like to tell her about, and ask those questions of her, first.

Ask her this hypothetical
>She has a Japanese Boyfriend
>He can speak English but he can't read it
>What would the shirt you make him wear say?

Ok guys
As an old boomer I'll give you my secret to talking to girls. I've used this powerful technique with many girlfriends and my wife. Use it wisely and don't tell to many people about it.

Here we go- whatever her last word was, there last thing she tells you... Repeat it back to her in the form of a question.

It's that simple.

"Blah blah blah so we decided to go shopping instead"

"You wen shopping instead?"

"Oh yes i love shopping, blah blah blah"

Try it out and I hope you have as much success with this as I have. Using this technique you literally can just glaze over and have your own internal thoughts, and she'll think you're vested in whatever she's talking about.
God speed

thanks for the advice

If she is a psychology major she will catch you doing this. So dont do it too often. Its a form of conversation mirroring

Don't use typical ones. Use topics related to their interest that you have an interest in

>so do you like stuff

Give up. You are not ready to talk to girls yet.

How do I become ready?

It's something he can only learn by doing either way, so not being ready is a shitty reason to quit and not to attempt it.

Read "How to Win Friends and Influence People."

Get genuinely, actively interested in whatever the other person finds important and wants to talk about. Get them to talk about their own shit, and ask followup questions. As someone uninitiated, you are the perfect target to offload their whole baggage onto, and retell ancient stories to. This makes the other person feel relieved, and since you're the one to help them with it, they'll tie you to this feeling.

Now, will it make you laid?

Probably not.

For that, you need to be more proactive. Most people want to bitch, but what they want more is to be swept off their feet and taken out of their boring, tiresome life.

Don't small talk. It's boring. Do you want to be bored? She doesn't want to be bored either.

You need to be better at focusing on the conversation at hand, there is a script but it's not like a solid thing you should follow 100%. Conversations are similar to garden path type writing or improv, you deal with what comes up and discover things and follow them to their end.

So while you have the general script of "greeting, observation, question, ect" you should mold it to the situation, not the opposite way. That's why guidelines are kind of general with conversation.

So topics of conversation should be FORD (family, occupation, recreation, dreams) in that order generally. Avoid RAPE, religion, abortion, politics, economics.

People love talking about themselves so it's easy to get them going if you express genuine interest, which is why you need to be actively listening. You should also throw in bits of info about yourself though so that it's not all lopsided. I realized after getting good at small talk that even though I was a lot better at it, when you do too much of the interested asking stuff people enjoy it but it can come off a bit interview-ish or like you're trying to win favor or manipulate them. Offering info about yourself allows them avenues to ask questions and puts your own self into the conversation.

First of all find out if she got a bf and if so just forget about her. If not then just try telling her you are into her worse case scenario she gets creeped out. Think of it like looking for a job you apply to people with offers but a lot of times they will reject you because you look incompetent at first. You just have to keep learning until you get one. It's literally like applying for jobs.

thats what i came for

>talking to girls

No you gotta tease them and make them laugh. Yeah you can listen to them waffle on for a bit but you gotta make them laugh and teasing is ez modo for that.

how do i tease them? i am literally socially retarded

worried if i even try i will offend her

please respond

Not him but hes got it down
When they boast about something - cut them down
If she thinks shes being funny (even if she is) laugh sarcastically, make fun of her,mpoke and prod
You just have to make sure theres a good exchange of male/female energy because most of her male friends will most likely try not to fuck up and insult her and then you come along, with your snide, sometimes downright rude remarks and sweep her off her feet because she finally bumped into someone not afraid to call her out
Women are stupid like that, the same way they pay us compliments and we get more and more autistic around them

Thanks for these suggestions

It's not about conversation topics, it's about doing enough and experiencing enough in your own life so that you have something relevant to say regardless of where the convos go. it's not like a conversation goes like Topic A - Topic B- Topic C etc it's all tangents and that's where your experience matters. I feel like approaching this in a non-organic manner would not be beneficial to you.
