It's not always easy to meet new women that's for sure. So once you meet someone new you really don't want to blow it in the first few minutes. There are plenty of potential hazards and you want to artfully negotiate around them. You are looking to continue a conversation which she'll remember with good feelings attached to it. You want her to look back on it with a smile and a warm feeling towards you. First off you want to show interested in her and develop a conversation where she feels you care about her as a person Sounds easy enough, right? But we all know it's not that simple.

The real challenge when you start trying to get to know a woman can be deciding what not to say. Well all women are different so it's really not entirely possible to predict what effect what you say will have on her. However, there are some things that are a pretty sure bet in terms of turning the conversation against your interests. Remember we're talking about a conversation with someone new, someone you just met.

Kids and Marriage Just don't go there with someone you've recently met. The chances of mismatching with her on this topic are too great. You blurt out you want marriage and seven kids. She may have very different ideas. If you are world apart on this one then you may never get a chance to get to know her a bit better. Save this conversation for much futher down the road if that becomes a reality. Steer clear at this stage.

No Previous Record She may think that you are not relationship material if you let out that you've not had a long term relationship before. Avoid the subject at this early stage. It's not that if things develop between you you're going to withold this information. Just at first keep your relationship record out of the conversation. There are plenty of other subjects. She may fish a little around this topic, but you don't have to bite.

Mummy's Boy Comparing notes on mothers is not a smart move at this stage. Family relationships in general can be pretty intense and never more so that maternal relationships. Also, you might think that talking about your mom makes you seem sensitive, but it may just make you look like a mama's boy. That's not a great impression to leave her with. If you want a second date then make sure it not your relationship with your mother that she remembers you by. Play safe and steer the conversation away from families and in particular mothers.

Controversial Subjects It probably goes without saying that subjects on which people hold strong views are to be avoided. There is no point in risking a serious dissagreement about rligion or politics for instance. In a meeting with someone new my advice is to play really safe. The aim is to have her remember meeting you with a smile and a warm friendly feeling towards you. You stand a much better chance of getting a second date that if you part after a difficult conversation.
