How do I keep up the conversation without seeming I'm interrogating him? (He's good at asking questions to discover more about the other.)

A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I recentlly met a guy through evening rugby practices. We haven't been goign out, but we've been conversing a bit.

HOWEVER!! When we converse, its always him asking all the questions, which I dont' mind, because he's good at it...and it allows me to talk more about myself, hah! because everyone loves doing that.

My question is, how do I go about continuing the conversation and referring back to him(because I do notice when i talk a lot about myself and it makes me uncomfortable) w/o seeming like I'm interoggating him?

He is a college senior..i believe, and I'm a high school senior. if that helps.

bqagirl2692 agony auntI dont think he'll feel that you are interrogating him because that is how we get to know people. We ask them questions. maybe not all at once because friendships do take time to progress. When you are both together and you are speaking of yourself, simply ask him the same questions in different words such as " so has that ever happened to you?", " What do you think about that?", " What would you do if that ever happened to you?". Simple questions like that usually generates the depth of the conversation and that way the both of you can get to know eachother equally. Dont be so shy. Good luck!

leanne.od agony auntyou cuold just ask him the same. when he asks you a question and you ahve answered, end it with "and what about you?" that way you learn the same amount about him as he does about you. he won't think you are interigating him because it's normal to be inquizative at the beginning of new friendships/relationships.

best of luck.
