Is conversation absent in your life?

“I feel like there’s no need for conversation.” – Shinedown

Last night I was invited over to a friends house to finally meet her friend, that she’s been trying to hook me up with for quite sometime.

Since my friend was taking her sweet time with this planned encounter I took initiative and started talking to her via the interwebs months ago. We chatted briefly every once in a while, but last night I didn’t really have much to say. I feel sometimes I never do.

It’s not only with the opposite sex either. I just don’t know what to talk about. It just feels so redundant. For some reason, when I talk to my bestfriend of 15 years, we could talk for hours, about nothing. With others? Not so much. Is there something wrong with me? Or, due to un-familiarities, do I just not know what topic to strike up?

I’m really attracted to this woman and she seems really cool, but I can’t really get to know her by sitting next to her and admiring her good looks, ya know?
