Something that made me better at conversations is going off hooks in conversations

i.e.

this girl I dated was a ballet dancer so I talked about how there must be a lot of competition trying to get spots - this leads into talking drama and conflict between people who you are performing with. Talk about how its difficult to be away from family. Talk about different country's / cultures

she's majoring in economics b/c it will make her money (its not her passion)

so you could say do you think anyone successful has made it doing something thats not their passion

talk about your passion

I think people love it when you can say something in the frame of reference you
you can do a cold read like

"so your the sort of person who do anything just for the money"

then can go with hypotheticals like say something rediculous she would do for money
