Yeah moments of silence arent good.
Most women are jabbermouths. You jsut have to find out how to get it out of them.

What ya do is before the lunch have some topics of conversation already planned. Write them down before hand if you have to.

Plan this out like a chess match if you have to.

Bring up topics, or issues, but have them already in your head.
And if she is the quiet type, think of some things you can talk about THAT will get HER talking too.

You want her to get out her opinions. And you want her to see you are a good listener. Agree with her on her issues even though people may disagree. She'll like that. Empathazie with her, and dont argue with her about anything..

Its a total stratgy. Think of this as a formula or a puzzle.

"If this happens, I do this. I plan to do this if this happens. I want to bring up this if she does this." YOu have to think like that and be confident alll at the same time.

Once you master this with the first gal it will come easier for the next.
Before you know it your mojo will be there and confidence will be born. You'll see this ability shining through in your college intervies, job interviews, work, whatever..

Its an artform you have to develop.
But you can do it. Its all in your head. So since you are still a rookie, no harm in planning a written game plan out first. About what you want to talk about and that kind of thing.

What ever it takes to give you that confdence bro
