Mastering the Chat

From dating apps to first dates, keeping the conversation flowing is a skill you can learn.

Open-Ended Questions

Avoid Yes/No questions. Instead of "Did you like the movie?", ask "What was your favorite part of the movie?"

Active Listening

Listen to understand, not just to reply. Refer back to things they said earlier ("So how did that meeting go that you mentioned earlier?").

The Silence is Okay

Don't panic if there is a pause. A comfortable silence shows confidence. Take a sip of your drink, smile, and let the moment breathe.
