Re: How do you open up a shy girl
[ QUOTE ]
Initially you're going to dominate the conversation. That's just the way things work unfortunately. But once you create a vibe with her, you need to get her talking for a significant amount of your conversation (~40%). There are three ideas that will help. 1) Allow her to qualify herself. She won't feel invested in the conversation until she actually reveals something of substance about herself. A standard line for letting her qualify herself is "so what do you have going for you besides your looks?" In your case something that could work is "wow, I thought you were such a shy, quiet thing but now you won't stop giggling. That's awesome (bring her in for a hug or high-five or reward her physically in some way)!" 2) Create a vacuum when you ask a question. There are correct and incorrect ways to ask non yes/no questions. When you ask one after you've hooked her into an interaction, let/make her answer. Ask the question and look at her expectantly. Don't take the conversational pressure off of her by continuing to talk or explain the question. If she gives a lame answer, call her out on it, re-apply conversational pressure. It's this "vacuum" of providing a topic for her and then not talking that will help get her out of her shell. 3) Foreshadow. Very early on in the interaction try to work into a story or life-view that you value women who can hold their own in two-way conversations. This is also another opportunity for her to qualify herself by adopting that role you set up. Yugoslav [/ QUOTE ] I'm now looking through your previous posts. |

Yugo totally owns these discussions. Damn I'm so bummed he couldn't join us in LA a couple of weeks ago, would have loved to see him in action.
