This was an insight that I had in class today as I was thinking about ways to improve myself (big changes coming soon). I realized that some of my conversations, I was simply talking too much. I immediately thought, "well how do I continue the conversation then?" and realized that instead of spewing information, a better approach would be to simply ask a girl a question and get her talking. Chas says as much in plenty of his articles, but I wanted to post this as a general tip for people like me who have struggled with conversation.

Pick a broad topic, use as open-ended a question as possible to kick things off...get them to admit something about themselves, then deep-dive. When anything is asked of you, i.e., questions about yourself - try to be as vague/mysterious as possible and turn the convo. back on her. Your mindset should be to get her to talk as openly and comfortably as possible about herself, to figure out what "high value" means in her terms. From there you want to imply that you have that specific type of value, key word, "imply"...don't talk about yourself, hint around, be vague, give just enough to keep her curious. Don't forget to "come up for air" when discussing deep subjects for a long time - you don't want your initial convo. to be too heady and deep. After all you want to sleep with her not be her shrink.

You: So what do you do?
Her: I'm a student
You: Cool, what do you want to do?
Her: I want to be a seismologist
You: Wow, never met a seismologist, what got you into that?
Her: Oh, I don't know - I was always curious about that kind of stuff. What do you do?
You: I moved here for a job at Merrill a couple months ago, really love it so far. What made you curious about seismology?
Her: Well when I was seven my dad and i were stuck in traffic in an earthquake....etc, etc -
You: So you're into earthquakes? God, it's been years since I've been in a good Earthquake too! So do you want to be where the earthquakes are at, or just study them from afar?
ETC ETC

I have been turning every response back into something that she will have to respond to/open up to - this allows me to relate if possible. Ideally you will have a few topics you can rotate through - each one leading to new topics...If one subject has dried up and you've got nothing else, just make an assumption about her and throw it out there...such as: "you strike me as a good dancer/volleyball player/whatever"...she will then verify or confirm and you can try to ask more open ended questions from her response. Don't let her get away with bullshit responses - dig deeper into the "why". Only you are allowed to be vague. At some point you will feel it, she will be telling you things about herself without you prompting it. When she's comfortable you still need to keep escalating though - try to move her if you want to close tonight, tell her you want to get drinks/hang out/see her again and get her number if you want to try to set something up later...
