How to have more meaningful conversation?

Asked by carrielynn (131points) February 13th, 2011

Lately me and my boyfriend just turn on the TV or talk about what we want for dinner. He does talk a lot, but I don’t. I’m very quiet and no good at small talk. He’d like me to talk more, and I know I want that as much as he does if not more. I don’t like not having anything to say, it’s just that I have really bad social anxiety so I’m not used to making a lot of conversation. Everyday I tell myself it will be different, but then it’s the same routine. This probably requires more effort than I realize. I just feel I have nothing to say at all, let alone something worth saying out loud.
