Good for you for getting out there for the first time! That’s not a small feat. It sounds like perhaps this just wasn’t a match. I always recommend keeping things light on a first date — talking about hobbies, trips, activities, etc. That way you know if there’s some rapport. Don’t delve into serious things like relationships, health issues, family stuff, etc. Awkward happens sometimes, and that’s okay.

It was really awkward and uncomfortable. It felt more like a job interview than a proper date. The conversation didn’t flow very naturally even though I asked questions and shared personal anecdotes with my date. We ended up jumping from topic to topic for less than an hour before we decided to end the date.

Do you have any tips for how to have a more natural conversation with somebody I don’t know very well?
