Is there such thing as being too quiet?

I met a wonderful girl online and we've started dating. She's great—she's beautiful, intelligent and a good person all the way around. She got a little upset with me yesterday because she feels like she's put a lot of effort into this so far, telling me about her life, and she feels that I haven't done enough on my part. So I spent the rest of the evening telling her about my life and just being more talkative, which she really liked. I'm worried that I'm either going to run out of things to say or she's going to get so frustrated and leave. She wants to try this out and date for a month and see where it goes from there, which I don't have a problem with. What can I do to show her that I'm very much interested and win her heart? I've bought her flowers and given a couple of gifts already, but she seems like the kind of woman that prefers a good conversation and I'm better at listening. Thanks!

She sounds like a well-rounded person, expressing her thoughts freely while showing genuine interest in yours at the same time. In the past you may have been more comfortable with women who only talked about themselves while you provided support by listening. That's not a bad thing, but in the long run you'll discover that this type of woman expects things to always revolve around her, you are there merely to supplement. The woman you're with seems open to different opinions, an ideal long-term partner. Yes, you feel uncomfortable now, expressing feelings you don't normally express and talking more than you'd like to, but that uncomfortable feeling is just a challenge to your present boundaries. It sounds cliche but being yourself is the only way you will make an ultimate impression on her. You're worried you may run out of things to say? Tell her exactly that!!! That will spark a conversation and if she's a genuine person, she will be impressed by your honesty. Buy her flowers and it's a generic gesture. Buy her a prairie lily because the first time you saw her, the orange and black shirt she wore reminded you of the flower. That's genuine. Tell her you were mostly a listener before and not much of a conversationalist, but she makes you want to be a conversationalist...she can't help but be moved. Ask her questions!!! and be prepared to have your own opinions. good luck!



You were straightforward and honest when you posted this question to strangers. I think that's what she's looking for too. And she is no stranger.
