awkward silences?
i don't really like driving with other people, well besides my best friends because there are always awkward silences! like when you're with a boy you like, and you are driving and he is in the passenger seat, it's like we don't really talk? and it's just an awkward silence, and sometimes i will be like "whats wrong" just to say something but i just don't know how to not have awkward silences? it's fine when we're together like at someone's house, but while driving it is really awkward sometimes. does this happen to anyone else? what do you usually say, or do? thanks :)! 18/f by the way

You know I used to always have this happen to me.
But I came to realize that if he's not talking either then it's not your fault.
Like he doesn't mind not talking.
Or he's feeling like he has to fill the space too.
I don't know if you quite understand but basically I don't worry about it anymore but it just isn't me in the car but someone else.
Try turning on the music or play a car game or something simple like that.

believe me girl ive been there with people, i use to feel like i had to fill up the gap of silence with conversation so it wouldnt be so strange. what helps me is turning on the radio, you can get a conversation started up about music, or fooling around with an ipod and seeing what kind of artists he likes that you like. also you can talk about something outside, or you can come up with a cheesy game like around christmas we would see who can find the most christmas lights up, be creative. even if there is some silence believe me its okay, just be calm and collective, sometimes silence is a good thing because it shows the other person is comfortable being with you without having to talk 24/7.
give it a try
