Default First Date Fall-back Topics

Let's say you're on a first date, and you can't think of what to talk about next. Sometimes the conversation just flows, but sometimes there ends up being a break in the conversation. What are good fall-back discussion topics if you can't think of anything to say at that exact moment?

music?

books?

school?

assuming its a girl,, just ask her a question about herself, but if you do that it might be hard to get her to shut up

Where are you from?
How did you get here?
How big is your family?
What do you do?
What music do you listen to?
What books do you read?
Do you like sports?

I suggest getting 3x5 cards and putting these on them in case you can't remember them.

Get her to talk about herself. Her hometown, high school, family, etc.

I used to like to talk about roller coasters or Halloween.

Just ask questions that require more than a yes or no answer.

Just shut up and let them worry about it.

Hmm, kinda a tough question. Alot of it depends on your age, and alot of situational stuff. School, jobs, TV, movies, music are never bad. Just ask alot of question, especially if you don't know them well. Friends, family, where they grow up, what they have done with their lives. Everyone prefers to talk about themselves so you can never go wrong trying to find out a little more about them. Plus it is a great way for you to connect yourself with them.

I can't wait till someone pulls out a PUA routine as their idea of fallback conversation.

Ask her how she feels about you posting a TR in OOT after the date.

I'm of the opinion that it's not something you can go into with a set of questions. If things work, it just flows and you don't even think about it. You can talk about hours and not have a dull moment. If it's not working, there's no question you can ask that will save everything.

Awkward dates suck, but they happen all the time. Just know how to cut them short and don't drag them out.
