I keep waiting for a girl to say, "This conversation is getting boring, thrillobyte....and so are YOU! I'm outta here" though somebodynew said nearly as much in post no. 32.
No woman who wasn't raised in a barn is going to tell a guy that he's boring to his face. That's where the "you're a really nice guy, but I don't think this is going to work" comes in.

But post #34 was very educational. Perhaps it IS learning to find out what the girl is interested in. Still, I can't help thinking that there is a giant disconnect between guys and girls today. Each wants the same thing, but each sex wants it from the ones who are most likely to kick them in the teeth. It's really a jungle out there.
In your initial conversation you should be asking her questions to find out some things that she is interested in then talk about some of those things. It also helps to be a well rounded individual who can carry on a conversation about a lot of different topics. Dont overdue though, if the conversation starts to lull then make up an excuse and excuse yourself. It also helps to be a little unpredictable.
Women will try to test you and if you fail that test then they will quickly lose interest labeling you as too nice.

Which guys and which girls? I remember dating this guy. He was everything I supposedly wanted. He was kind, generous, caring. He tried to support me. He would buy me things that I "needed". I did not want him to support me. I had my own damned job. If I had wanted that thing, I'd have bought it myself. He kept trying to give me flowers. I told him I was allergic to flowers. They make me sneeze. But men buy women flowers. It was lonely as hell knowing that he did not want ME. He wanted some Barbie plastic woman figurine. I dumped him. He asked why. I told him. Two weeks later, a mutual friend came to ***** me out. He was pissed that I would dump him for no other reason than he was nice. Yup that is what the BF told the mutual friend as to why I dumped him.

My ex wife dumped me because I did not buy her enough things and didnt get her flowers often enough lol. I dont read into it too much anymore, everyone is going to be different. I just dont set myself up for huge financial liability anymore.
Nice guys don't finish last, but suckers do. Be a nice guy, just don't be a doormat.
