    Hi,

    Me and my girlfriend recently finished things after a long 5 year relationship just kind of finished... The thing is that I really want to get back into the game on a casual basis. Just to take my mind off he. I'm not looking for another relationship...just conversation etc..

    I guess my main problem is that I cant really talk to girls. I mean, I've had previous relationships and female friends but approaching a girl on a night out who I dont know terrifies me. My main problem is that I just dont know what to say, how to act etc...

    Its even more daunting when theyre surrounded by their friends...

    Can anyone offer any advice?

    Thanks!

    - TT

    I'm in a similar boat myself.

    Talking to strangers for me is simply impossible unless I have at least one line of conversation, and let thinks move from there. I always have to plan in advance what I'm going to say to a stranger. Most of the time though, I'd be too terrified though.

    Looking for an answer myself on the same topic to be honest.

    There's your problem right there, you plan in advance. What if it doesn't go to plan?

    The real secret is to be yourself, if they don't like that person then feck it, they probably weren't right for you in the first place.

    I find that lines don't work, all I do is go up and say hello, judge what kind of response I get (95% friendly btw) and go from there. Most girls are out to have a good time too so it wouldn't the end of the world if you spoke to them.
