What are some effective ways to break the ice with a girl or while out on a date?

Have fun... dont think of it as.. ohhh my god if i 'm a total dork this girls gonna be laughing at me for weeks to come.. who cares if someone you just met things you did or said something stupid? walk up to the girl and say something....ANYTHING and go from there.. tell a corny joke(i.e. why did the polygamist cross the road? to get to the other BRIDE!) or an piece of trivia and let your personality take over... dont be shy...YOU have alot to offer and think of this way.... if the person your talking too doesnt wanna see that they arent worth talkin too

Just be yourself...j/k : )

I've been in a similar position recently. I found it best to not push things, to just wait until the timing is right to make a conversation starter to the subject as opposed to making a b-line across the room and diving into it from there. It will make the conversation much more relaxed if you are not completely out of your comfort zone. Find something that you can both have a laugh over, some sort of an inside joke that you can bring up a few dates in. You need to keep the conversation light for the first few dates. Most of all be positive!

And I know that you said the you are not a complete moron and I do believe you...but....just as a friendly reminder, do not gab about your ex-wife, as tempting as it is.

You can do it!!

Meh, why do no longer you in simple terms get to nicely known her first, and notice what develops. It seems such as you're putting tension on her, or cornering her to circulate out till now she even is customary with you. Edit: whoa Zack, that grow to be an thrilling examine, you get carry of a few interest, Lol. My suggestion is in simple terms be actual, truthful, and affected person...in case you have your state of suggestions on her.

You know what, people's favorite subject is themselves, so start by showing an interest in her, her job, family, hobbies, friends. If she's also interested let's hope she's not a snob but also is interested in asking about your life too. And if she does....don't say too much about why the marriage didn't work out, but how you're trying to grow from the experience.

ok don't be to pushy and ask to much of your date' we hate it when a guy ask's the 20 question's but we do like it when you mute your cell phone and notice us even when in a movie ' if we are wearing a pretty set of earings.we love it when a man notice's little things like this

Tell the girls they look nice and buy them a drink! That could start off a conversation.

on what to say ummm not really sure.

Just start talking and let things go from there.

sorry if i wasnt that much help! but good luck!!!!

just take it one step at a time.
