Talking about yourself can help you get a better understanding of your partner's likes and dislikes. If he/she is a sports fan, you might suggest that they go to a stadium together. You might also consider visiting a library together, if he/she enjoys reading.

You should also avoid discussing politics, religion, and sensitive topics. You should also avoid discussing personal problems.
