Dang I miss the dances. Was doing a lot better back in those days. wonder what changed.
that generally means you have nothing in common. You shouldn't have to force a conversation between two people. It really should just flow naturally.
I dunno, the first time you meet someone you will not know or talk about much you have in common. I think the first couple of interactions is more about the level of enjoyment and how fun you seem. Finding out stuff you have in common seems to come later on.
E.g. with my ex, I'm pretty sure at first look, we had next to nothing in common, but we had fun when we met up. The more we hung out and got to know each other,, the more we realised we had in common, until we could text all day or hang out all day without running out of shit to talk about. I think that comes more with time.
The first time you meet someone is more like an interview or public speaking, it's more to do with the style of your interaction than what you actually say. If you're a completely different tempo/energy to someone, you'll never get on, whether it's a colleague or a girl. They'll initially make up their mind whether they like you and enjoy your company within the first 30 seconds to minute, but you're never gonna know if you have stuff in common with each other from that. That comes with getting to know the person better until its completely natural to talk about anything.
Worth thinking about in every walk of life, not just when meeting women
