xoPandaBabyxo answered Tuesday March 8 2005, 8:01 pm: Well, just bring up stuff like "do you have a girlfriend?" or something that you can talk about for a long time like "are your teachers mean?" or "popular kids are soo stupid". you know, random things. Maybe sports or movies are some other examples. I have trouble with conversation starters alot, too, especially with my friends Kyle, Chris, and Mickey. Lol, hope I helped.
gakkuhideto answered Tuesday March 8 2005, 7:07 pm: If you truly can't talk to him, then it might be a good idea not to talk to him. That kind of relationship might not work out. But you gotta atleast try. Talk about anything, just random thoughts you have, they don't even have to make sense. Say something like, "So what do you think would happen if you and I went to thee aquarium and freed the sharks?", and hopefully that will start a conversation. Also, sometimes it's easier to express emotions by talking online. This doesn't work for all people, but might for you. [ gakkuhideto's advice column | Ask gakkuhideto A Question ]

mylinhthan answered Monday March 7 2005, 11:29 pm: anonymous -
Here are some suggestions:
-plans (ex. what are you doing this weekend/summer/spring break?)
-info (ex. ask for his birthday, hobbies, etc.)
-music tastes
-new film releases
-the news (sounds boring, but could be interesting!)
-future (career goals, college interests)
-sports (guys LOVE sports!)
-television (who sucks on american idol hahah jk :))
-hangouts
-cars (guys love cars too!)
I'm not sure if this list was helpful, but if it helps at all, at last resort make an outline of things to talk about and be sure to expand on each subject to keep the conversation moving!
sunshine805 answered Monday March 7 2005, 11:26 pm: Try to find out stuff that both of you have in common and talk to him about that stuff. Otherwise, just talk about school, sports, celebrities(which can always be funny, or yourself.
Hope I helped!

Little_Miss_Cant_Be_Wrong answered Monday March 7 2005, 10:17 pm: What are some things you have in common? Bring up common points of interest, like a class you both have together, or a teacher neither of you can stand, something like that. If you have trouble working it into the conversation, start with something like, 'Hey, did you understand tonight's homework?' Then, you can follow it with a comment about something that happened in class, etc...and hopefully the conversation will be rolling. Another approach that will make him get talking and guarantee a conversation is ask him to explain something to you. Does he do a sport? Bring that up and ask him something you don't really understand about it. For instance, 'I have always wondered, when you play soccer, what constitutes a penalty...like, what are specific things you aren't allowed to do?' This, hopefully, will get him interested in the convo because it will be something he enjoys talking about because 1) it is about something he likes, and 2) it is something he is knowledgeable about so he will be comfortable talking about it. This gives you an oppurtunity to have a good discussion, and connect with your boy on something that is meaningful to him. If he doesn't play a sport, maybe ask him about a musical intrument he plays, or a club he is active in. Anything goes.
Other random questions for it the conversation is lacking spark:
-Favorite TV shows or movies
-What you did last weekend
Here is another idea that will make for a great, and amusing conversation. I would save this idea until you are more comfortable talking with him, though. Ask him if he wants to play a game, and when he says 'Sure,' tell him that you are going to alternate asking each other questions, and no matter the question you have to answer it honestly. Come up with creative, funny questions, like ones that start with 'Would you rather...?' Or, ask him things you've been dying to know. It's a fun game, and you will learn alot about each other, and maybe end up with some amusing inside jokes that you can laugh about later. Hope this helps, and good luck!

Reesespieces022 answered Monday March 7 2005, 10:09 pm: check around with his friends to see what gets him heated- you'll score some points for being interested in what he feels, and its usually easier for guys to talk about things that they're passionate about.

oneandonly345 answered Monday March 7 2005, 9:55 pm: ask what he likes to do in free time. what him and his friends do together. about his family. about what sports he plays. his fav. foods. his least fav foods. uhh. fav classes. lest fav classes. uhh. just simple things like that. but you shouldn't have to do all the work. cuz if he isn't trying.. maybe ya'll arent ment to be friends? but i donno. start w. those. and you will learn more about him, and then you will soon come up w. your own =)
