(OT) Some advice for me / My Depression Thread / Thanks forumers

im just thinking, had anyone here else experienced that - when you dont know what to talk to people about? thats a problem i've been having for several years now, desperately trying to find a way around it

[narf poit chez BOOM]

if you can't think of what to say, join a conversation. works for me. still need to learn how to start one, though.

i can start and further, just when its over i need something else to talk about. especially with people who have slightly or realy different interests from me.

my dad suggets asking them about themselves and, if you know something about them, ask them about something in there lives. taking into account how well you know them. people are always impressed by that. considering how many people my dad knows, it's probably good advice.

hmm, i am doing that - but soon i still run out of topics to talk.

Just an idea of my own(c), no wife involved
How about meta conversation?
i e when you don't know what to say, say;
"-When you run out of topics in a discussion, what do you talk about then?"
Getting tips from the victims so to say?
