@Zavss I was planning to give prompts for her to talk about, then express interest when I like something.
Like your previous advice I will be looking to entertain myself. Really helps me to stay chill.
I have a date later with a woman I have done minimal texting with.
I am super new to this way of thinking.
Give me something to work on, I guess something I can practice.
I am a guy who gets oneitis still so I would like to remain cool and work on that
Good luck. Keep the conversation light and make sure to keep her talking about herself on things that might interest you. Beyond that, consider investing in a reliable ready reference you can pick up and study to better prepare yourself for engaging the opposite sex. I'd suggest that you get yourself a copy of Doc Love's "The System: The Dating Dictionary". Doc Love, known otherwise until recently as Tom Hodges until his recent passing, wrote a weekly advice column that's mirrored on several sites and ran a podcast. While his media is a bit pricey, it's well worth the investment, but I would also suggest you review his advice column to decide if his view on dating and relationships is aligned with what you aspire for yourself. If you've already found you'd like to read his book, but find money is an issue for you, you should be able to find copies through torrent sites, but I won't say where you should start on that endeavor. Given his passing, it's entirely possible that his site will soon have a sale and afterwards his media will likely be more expensive.

Stopped "chit chat" during online dating. No more "likes". "dislikes", career, travel aspirations.
Just short replies, entertaining myself and booking dinner tables.
I have gone from online dating failure to dates and backup dates. Also not even during weekends, they will have to work for that.
Thank you all for your advice.
Single guy with friends who just will not come out and wanna sit in with their girlfriends all weekend.
What are some activities you can think of where I can be exposed to women? With a goal of picking them up.
@Zavss Thank you.
Apprehensive when it comes to going solo. I don't drink.
So I guess that makes it a little more challenging.
Situation:
I am a 29 yo male. All of my friends are in relationships or are overly focused on career etc.
For all the friends I have been blessed with, non will accompany me on a night on the town. I want to get out there are start approaching women, what would you do ?
Tinder and Bumble etc. are hard work.
@Kloi I always aimed for the goal.
I guess the process and enjoying it is more important?
I had a bit of a near death experience recently and I think it has pushed me away from worry about failure etc.
Don't get me wrong, doubt is till there, but you know what? Fuck it.
This is good advice thank you.
