one thing i have found that is BRILLIANT for akward situations is call them out
makes them funny

just say,wow this is awkward, say it with a smile

its like if someone says somethin cringe just not sayin anythin is worse u just smile and call them on it and skit them a little bit then move on!

this is SO helpful in awkward situations... plus make them feel comfortable.

this is in any situation not just with a girl
