Talking to a guy you’re interested in can be quite nerve-wracking sometimes. After all, what do you say that a) makes you sound interesting; AND b) reveals stuff about him? So it’s not surprising, really, that we sometimes get stuck on the “Hi, wassup” and “Not much” routine, which is both uninspiring and uninteresting! That’s why, to save you from those awkward silences – whether it’s on a first date, when you’re chatting with someone on a dating app, or just the cute guy you bumped into at a party – we’ve put together some GREAT icebreakers to get the ball rolling. Trust us, these are super lines to kick-start a conversation that will DEFINITELY help you get to know him better!
