Talking


Question Posted Monday July 11 2005, 1:02 pm

My boyfriend isn't very talkative. Even before we admitted to having feelings for eachother, I was always the one to pursue the conversation. We're going out tonight & I'm worried we'll totally run out of things to talk about. Can anyone help me out with some topics to bring up? By the way, we don't go to the same school. Thank you!

~Allie

That's how my ex was, here's some ideas:

If you saw a movie, talk about that.
Talk about how things are going at your school.
Talk about the people you know.
Sports
Your friends
Ask him about himself
Tell stories, jokes


Sorry that's not alot

Some really easy topics are; sports, music, and each other. Its really easy to talk about anything you both have in common. If you can get him to laugh then things will get much easier, laughing really breaks any barrier.

I hope I helped you.

Well, Allie, just be yourself. I know that this can be a hard thing to do, but be yourself. Pretend your boyfriend is actually your best friend, because you and your best friend never run out of things to say, right? Continue to pursue conversation! He's probably pretty shy as well as not talkative... I can be the same way at times. Be happy - but NOT extremely hyper/overbubbly etc. that's just a little annoying to me personally. Think of some questions that you'd like to ask your boyfriend. It can be anything from "Do you have a dog?" to "How do you feel about abortion?" or "Does your sister have green eyes?" -- just ask him questions! If you already know that he has a dog, and his sister doesn't have green eyes, then ask other stuff (such as abortion topics), but if you ask about things that are extremely controversial (i.e. - abortion, gay marriage, premarital sex, etc.) then you might have conflicting views than your boyfriend and this could cause tension. If you don't know alot about your boyfriend, by all means, please ask more about him! Favorite band, favorite food, favorite color, favorite baseball/football/soccer/sledding/basketball teams, favorite NASCAR driver, favorite model of car etc., etc. Anything and everything.. just about.. will do. Now, some things are downright rediculous, and you'd embarrass him if you asked. (i.e. - what color underwear do you have on?) That's going to cause serious awkwardness and it's kindof a strange thing to ask. Ask what movies he's been to see recently and what he thinks about them. Just get to know him as well as you possibly can, and he might begin to open up and start the conversations more often.


Have fun tonight!
