i've recently started talking to a friend again. we haven't talked for so long, and now that we started, i don't really wanna stop. but everytime we start talking to each other, there's some awkward silences every now and then. what are some things i can talk to him about? i'm a girl and he's a guy, if that helps. he likes poetry and a lof of the things we've been talking about is about life. we don't go to the same school and he's a year older than me.
what are things i can/should talk to him about?
thanks.

Like if you see something and are observing it, then say look at that. Or if you like something about him compliment it. Like if he gets out some of his poetry. Talk about life, and about your day. Something funny will keep him more interested. You really have to think of what to say and really work out on it. He probably wont care if its stupid or out of nowhere as long as you have a subject to talk about then thats completely fine. Or on the other hand get to know him more by asking him questions about himself. Or do the 20 question game. Again let him do the talking if you dont know what to do!
