You can ask really random questions. OH and the game, "would you rather..." also livens up any conversation. I played this with my boyfriend and it got us onto SO many different conversations on text. I was like, "would you rather be in a room full of bees or in a room full of spiders?" and he replied with bees. and I was like wtf ?! but they sting and then we got into this whole conversation about what we're afraid of and stuff and it was so fun. You could do that. Or you could say the "what ifs" like, what if you became a doctor when you get out of school..? things like that really keep the conversation going. Also, if he asks what you're doing, put some mystery into it, you could say something like, "what do you think I'm doing?" or "take a guess ;]" he'll find it in intriguing, most guys do. hahaa.
Those are just some little tips, hope i helped, good luck ! and if you need anything else, feel free to inbox me :] have fun, xxo. [ itdependsonyoux3's advice column | Ask itdependsonyoux3 A Question ]

Don't say "nothing" unless you're literally sitting on the floor not doing anything. If you're watching a movie, say, "I'm watching (Movie Title)" If you're reading a book say, "I'm reading (Book Title)" If you're talking to a parent, say "I'm talking to my father about (Topic Conversation)". It's way more interesting than, "meh, nothing. yeah, fine. okay."
You could also play 20 questions, which is usually fun. You've been dating for 7 months so it might not work out so well because it would be hard to think of things to ask, but you could try it anyway.
There are so many things to talk about, just bring something completely random up. If you're interested in a certain band, talk about that. If you want to go to space, talk about that. If someone's made you angry, talk about that.
Break out of the normal trend and say something that's on your mind. It might seem a little random, but it will keep your relationship fresh and will give you something new to talk about.
