How to nail that first conversation with a girl at the bar?
“First, stop treating it like a job interview. Don’t feign interest while dropping hints of your ‘strong points.’ She’ll just think you’re over-compensating. Next (you know this already, right?), show genuine interest in her world. And last, when listening to her interests, actually admit if you don’t know something. Most guys never do. But it makes you instantly mature, confident, and the perfect amount of vulnerable. Yum! Your next step: Buy her a drink, let her continue to school you, and see where things go.”
