Dating Advice: First Date Conversation Tip

When some of us are nervous, we speed up our speech. A key to conversation success and appearing confident (even if your nerves are about to burst!) is slowing down on the talking front. If you come off high-strung or that you’ve overdosed on espresso, the intensity could be misread and could even make your date feel equally anxious.

Learn to listen to yourself talk and when you notice that you might be getting too fast for anyone besides you to understand, slow it down. There’s no sense in frothing at the mouth because you’re trying to get everything you want to say out in some sort of record time.
