Do you ask your partner how much experience they have or do you just know from being around? I find it to be a difficult way to start the conversation especially if I have never met someone. I am not there to start a "measuring" contest. I try to say something like, "Hey
, what do you do for a living? How long you have been running in-between the lines?"
Any suggestions on a conversation starter?
