This works in so many situations besides dating. This used to be called “active listening” where you ask a question, LISTEN to the answer and respond to that. Just LISTENING instead of thinking of what clever thing you’ll say next will set you up for conversational success. And who knows where that will lead?

Lol! This post made me think of a couple questions.

Like:

Omg do you remember baby Jessica when she was stuck in the well when we were tiny tots? That was big news back then.

And have you seen that lame quibi streaming service show called Dummy with Anna Kendrick? I think it’s like modern day Mannequin with Andrew McCarthy and Kim Cattrall!

Also you definitely need a sub stack merch side hustle with a cute pastel pink sweatshirt that says I’m Terry and you’re Gross™️

Sadly, as a 37 year old woman, who has dated both sexes, it is ALL GUYS (except you, which does not feel like a win but it damn well should be). This is going to be my official reading requirement for any future dates.
