Eh? Are you asking how to have a conversation with someone?
As a general rule being a good listener and actually being interested in what the other person has to say helps make someone a great conversationalist. Be relaxed. Smile. Enjoy yourself. Expect the other person to hold their weight too. Open ended questions are good too.
You're talking to a woman, not an alien. Have fun.0 -
Do fun stuff
Clothed and naked
I think that about covers it0 -
Ask questions you genuinely want to know the answers to and then pay attention to her answers. And remember that relationships may take a little work, but they are supposed to be a lot of fun. If it feels like the reverse is true then it is time to reevaluate.0

Say: "Make me a sammich"
She will love that.0 -
Seriously though consider that she is just as keen to keep you interested
You see relationships are about giving a toss about each other, complementing each other (not complimenting...look it up if you don't know the difference). You don't have to put her (or him) first but you should actually care how they think and feel and work together to make your lives the best they can be
And long term relationships are like roller coaster rides, just make sure that the entire track is above the line of general contentment by being with someone you respect who interests you0 -

lol I remember when I was 26. Use the force. Seriously just have fun. Be confident and funny. Always look in the eye.0

OP: Is this your first girlfriend ever? How long have you been dating exclusively?
1. Be yourself at all times.
2. Be honest with yourself and your girlfriend at all times
3. Communication should come naturally. Don't try to force it.
4. If you are nervous or shy, don't worry about it. A lady who sees that you are honest and open will not be put off by the former. She will appreciate and understand that you want to be yourself around her.
5. Relationships don't happen overnight, at least they shouldn't. Just like with exercising, it takes time to get to know someone and develop a bond on many different levels. Be patient. Don't rush yourself or her.
6. Have fun. Don't fill your hours trying to impress her. Be yourself and let your actions from the heart evolve as they will. Trying to impress a lady by acting outside of what is already from within shows a lady that you aren't being true to yourself, her, or the relationship.
7. When it comes to relationships, walk beside her. It doesn't matter if her pace is a little slower than what you are used to. If you walk in front of her all the time, you won't be able to listen to her when she is speaking to you from the heart.
8. Take the time to be friends first. If you skip the friendship foundation and rush right into some overnight romantic relationship, you are missing the most important and tender part of what relationships are all about. Too many people jump right in bed or focus on trivial, shallow things, instead of taking the time to get to know someone and enjoy the companionship as it unfolds.
9. Never ever say the words "I love you" unless you mean them with all your heart, and understand the depth of meaning they convey. Too many people carelessly toss the words "I love you" about, without any real regard.
10. When you are attracted to a lady physically and mentally, and the chemistry is cracking like lightning, don't rush things. Yes, showing someone that you care about them is important and also gratifying in many ways. At the same time, having sex and making love to a woman are two different things.
I wish you well.0 -

If one can't be honest with him or herself and the relationship, something is not right, in my opinion.BasicGreatGuy wrote: »2. Be honest with yourself and your girlfriend at all times

I don't see speaking the truth in love as a bad thing at times. Granted, the truth may not always be received as we would like but, I think it is important to be honest with ourselves and the person we are dating or married to.0 -

I would rather my mate be honest than blow smoke up my *kitten* for anything. But every relationship is different.0 -

Does my bum look big in this?

I would be honest with both those questions.
If one feels he or she can't be honest with his or her best friend, confidant, and lover, in any area of life, (no matter how small or big) that doesn't speak very highly of the relationship, in my opinion.0 -
Who does like their mother in law? I thought that was every guys god given right to dislike their mother in law. 0

For the first question there is a correct answer based on who you are dating.

I think its serious, so good luck and as said previously dont be a dick.
Maybe cut back on mirror time.
If you are going to lie then dont get caught. Better not to lie though.
We need updates.0 -
