Hello Truddie,
The best way to break the ice with someone when there is awkward tension is to simply ask questions. People love to talk about themselves so the more questions you ask, the more you will find out about this guy and then you will get a better idea of the types of things he likes, dislikes…etc. Ask him questions like what he likes to do in his spare time, the types of movies he enjoys, the music he listens to, or ask him about his family and friends.
Also, by asking questions, the guy you are talking to will inevitably end up asking you the same questions after (for example: if you ask someone their favorite television show, they will answer and then ask you what yours is). Once you break the ice by asking questions, the conversation will begin to flow and you will find yourself talking with ease.
Hope this helps!
