don't underestimate how much people like to talk about themselves lol. If you can ask the right questions, she'll go on forever

So I should try to strike a balance between getting the focus of the conversation on her without showing too much interest right? I've kind of heard that part both ways, in terms of being aloof or showing genuine interest.

@missliterallywho funny how women feel like that when they talk alot

Yet guys will ramble on and on without a thought, I wonder if it's women are just more aware of their effect on the surrounding environment, although why I don't know

The same way women will cover their mouth when chewing, I always find it funny in an odd way

They acknowledge their actions in the world around them, with a specific set of rules thats seem to apply only to them

Ive been on both sides of it, if we are talking about a topic I like and the girl seems intelligent then I usually am interested in what she is saying but ive also just nodded along when girls gab on , more so when its about somthing stupid, and the only reason to pay attention is cause shes cute. So then its fake

You seem more interested in how they brought you to speak so much and easily when normally you don't but maybe you hit a topic you enjoyed speaking about that normally you dont get a chance to talk about. Or maybe your just socially awkward hence you dont say much and when you are able to talk in a comfortable setting with a seemingly interested person you gab on

Which I can kind of speak from experience there because I use to do that.

Yea I do the same thing with strangers go way to into personal details, not sure why i was homeschooled maybe thats why. I dont know. But ive become alot less socially awkward thr older I get

But it's still there..haha

Haha

Thats a good thing in my mind

@Attrition in the desert update?

@ThisIsChris Going to a museum tomorrow. Texted a bit with some of the advice from you fine people, (getting her to talk about herself ect)

wholesome! have fun!

I'm in no position to give advice. Good luck!

Fresh OC from me:

My sister is working on setting me up with an old basketball friend who is 6'5". Talked with the girl's sister who said she'd probably be into it. She's never dated much because "1. She'll only date taller guys [I am 6'9"], but she doesn't like black guys."
BIG IF TRUE

Tall if true

I met her years ago when my sister and she played ball. But yes, 6'7" average relationship height if it works out.

IE eugenics program

sheesh

Marriage is for eugenics. Whatever you got, get more or get something good to go with it.

I was *sheeshing* at the heights, not the eugenics part 😉

Oh yeah. I'm a total freak. Shorter than me dad, though.

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN bruh

Christ dude!

best of luck on your date

No date is arranged yet. Perhaps jinxing it... We'll see. I'm trying to get contacts and a haircut before the first meet up.
And back to church for at least a week or two. She's a pastor's daughter. -__-'
I read most of the New Testament this summer, and listen to the godcast weekly. So I'm pretty well versed in scripture.
That could be my biggest difficulty.

Don't want to be "that guy" that just goes to church for le trad waifu, though.

Project confidence

I have lost 35 lbs in seven weeks, thanks to keto and lifting.

I want to be "that guy"

If that means acquiring a trad waifu

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN good luck man. My gf isn't a pastor's daughter but she is pretty close considering her family is the only family in Australia who are members of my church and her father leads their Sunday worship services. Try to get on good terms with her father. It's really important for actual trad girls that you have the approval of their male family members.

@Der Seeteufel - SD Thanks, and absolutely. Going to do this slow and right if at all.

Definitely keep going to church too and don't feel bad for going just for a girl. If that's how the Holy Spirit got you in the door that was God's plan.

Any good places to find trad waifus (I can't believe I just typed that) besides church?

I feel like any relationship started through church would be a lie since I don't believe

@TMatthews In my opinion no.
