Tomorrow I'm going to tennis with my crush, but the problem is I'm more some of a silent guy, I barely say anything to others unless I can really trust them and know them since a long time. I am afraid I might just say nothing which will give an awkward silence :( She's a little shy too so I don't think that helps a lot too... Any tips what to say or what to talk about? I have no idea if you can call this a date but it's the first time I'm going to tennis with her, and I'm not going to try to kiss her but I might go to the forest or movies with her next week so any tips to get her ready to kiss me? I never had a gf and never kissed so I have no experience in anything... :S

I would wait on kissing her 'till I got to know her more. What I would do, assuming that I played tennis, is talk to her and if you like her, then if you do want to continue to talk to her, get her phone number. Simply ask for it, don't be fancy about it. Talk more with her and when the time feels right......ask her to the movies or lunch and go from there. As a wise friend of mine always says, a good relationship begins with a casual friendship. Now go get her!

First of all if youu don't have nothing to talk about. Act really stupid to make her laugh or make just talk about random stuff. It worked for me ^.^ && Girls found me too be funny about it. I would say wait on kiss as well just because you might come out looking desperate.

It was a fun game but the problem (as expected) is that I didn't say more than 'Hi' 'How's it going'... And then hours of silence 0_0 She didn't say anything either (she's really shy I think) but once you talk to her she says a lot but yeah, I didn't talk a lot to her... I have no idea what blocks me but I'm like 'if I have nothing to say, why say anything', it seems I had nothing to say...

But, you have to talk to her to get to know her. You like her, don't you? Talk about tennis, do you and her play on the same team? Talk about team members, an upcoming tournament, talk how you play tennis, how about when you won against a really tough opponent, does she need a doubles partner? (That's when you both play together on one side, right?) Anyway, you have an advantage, you have found a broad topic to talk about that you are both involved in. Use that!
One of my favorite things about going to debate tournaments is meeting people. If I am not competing, I occasionally will sit in on someone I would like to get to know's round. After the round, I start up a conversation about how she had a great argument or how she performed her piece so well. Even if I did not sit in on a round, I just go up and start asking what her (or her team's) events are. Sometimes I will even comment about how great she looks just to get the ball rolling. If I like the person, I ask for their number.
Play another game with her, talk with her, get her number. You got this :yes:

Thats a difficult situation when two shy people are together and niether one talks much so it might be best you go out in a group setting where others can start the ball rolling. invite her to the movies with a couple friends like a couple girls and guys. she maybe more incline to talk in a group setting and it may make it easier for you to get to know each other. as you learn each others likes and dislikes you'll find you have a lot to talk about and share. Good luck
