Ahhh. The silence. What you need to do is try and get into a casual conversation. Start talking about funny memories and you'll be talking for hours on end, sharing eachothers memories. Or maybe try just telling him how you feel, maybe he'll strike up a conversation once and awhile. Hope this helped.

I've had that happen before. Usually I'll just start off with "how was your day? what did you do?" or something like that and then they'll talk about their day which makes conversation for awhile, and whenever they finish, I start telling them about my day and whatnot. Another thing I usually wind up doing is just saying something random to make conversation. Like, "i saw the funniest thing today", "did you hear whose dating in school?" "did you have to take Mr.So-and-so's test in school today? Wasn't that hard?" and I just start talking. Before you go on the phone with him, just make a list of a few things that both of you can share opinions on and talk about so it's just not like a one-sided conversation. i hope i helped. <3

Hey,
That is pretty normal and common in all relationships. At the beginning, because you don't anything about each other, so its like each on of you is telling the other about his life, and childhood and schools and completely everything you could talk about .But then later on, you realize that you said completely everything possible to each other and you start talking less than you used to. It doesn't mean that there is no love anymore , or that you don't talk anymore or anything. But its typical, and happens to everyone, all the excitement that overcomes you at the beginning of the relationship because you are dating a whole new person and its like a really cool experience and all, but you don't have to keep on talking, try to hang out or catch a movie or go somewhere fun like skating or something or the beach or the pool, or talk about other friends , gossip. Ask him about his family, past relationships, future plans, future job, experiences that he has been through. And if you already know everything about him, than just talk once a day when you say hi , i love you and i miss you. And just make plans to go out with him and have fun. You don't always have to talk.

this can be fairly common in relasinships. at first you talk all the time and always hang out and always have a cool time, but through time the relasinship isn't as new and exciting as it once was and becomes a bore. if i were you i would think of ways to spice up your relasinship. like going out somewhere like the mall or a resteraunt or including your friends where you go might work so you'll have more people to talk with. what also might work is doing somthing you both like to do or doing somthing he likes and then doing somthing you like or maybe you could try doing somthing different like going to a different resteraunt or a different mall or a different side of town or somthing

hope i helped and good luck
