me and my boyfriend just recently got together again (for the 2nd time) yesterday. well he dumped me before because he said we didn't have a "connection" and i must admit it was slightly awkward around him, seeing as he makes all these perverted jokes that are funny *sometimes* but i can't *really* TALK to him, 'bout anything, like i should, ya know? that i blame on his short attention span.

well i really like him, and i dunno why but he's really sweet and nicee and i don't know.... and conversation tipss?

Well, mistake #1 is you getting back together with him. If you broke up once, you broke up for a reason. I did the whole "get back together with an ex" thing and it was good for a few weeks. But then it got worse than ever. If you have to resort to forums for tips on how to talk to your boyfriend about things, then that must be a red flag.

but if you really want advice on how to talk to him, just tell him to calm down and be serious for 10 minutes.

lol being random is awesome Random people are fun to hang out with But ya i hate it when ppl dont listen to me when im trying to talk or start talking about something and either stops or brings up a totally different subject All i can say is just try talking to him about something and if he doesnt listen to you tell him how much it annoys you and hang up or something that will get his attention real fast lol nobody likes being hung up on

Ever heard of punctuation?

Yes. When I'm on the computer I short hand alot of things because i dont like typing eveything out. Im lazy and it's faster short handing everything than typing every word out and using perfect puntuaction.

it doesn't really bother me... though i dont get why anyone cares as long as you can understand them.

That's not true at all, actually. It doesn't even take you a second to add one extra letter.

Well when your typing a pretty long paragraph yes it takes a little bit longer. I just dont really think about adding every common, period and so forth. I know how to use proper puntuation but when im on the computer writing somebody or something I really dont care or pay attention if I'm using proper puntuation.

You're supposed to take the lack of conversationas a sign. Some people have no problem with it and can still build a good relationship...but this just doesn't sound like its going to work. Ever. Move on.

You're wrong, it doesn't take but maybe 2 seconds longer. Take pride in how you represent yourself, whether it be on a forum, or anywhere else for that matter.

How about you dont date someone you have to force being with by having people tell you what to talk about?But it honestly doesnt matter...this is like the people who get arrested for beating their wives and they go BUT I LOVE EEMMM. You're not going to listen to any of us.If you cant even talk to any guy, let alone your "B/f"..you shouldn't be dating anyone.

im pretty bad at conversation in general(hence the name), but i can still pull something out of my ass when im with my friends and its even more important with members of the opposite sex. if someone whos supposed to be one of the closest people to you cant even talk to you, or you cant talk to them, its probably not meant to be.

i could never understand how people can date someone they can't have great conversations with.

Yeah, same. Whoever you choose to date should atleast be someone you can share things with, confide in, and at the least be able to talk to. It merely shows a lack of respect if he doesn't care to pay attention to you, and yeah sure he has a bad attention span but you (or he) should'nt use that as an excuse for his lack of interest. My boyfriend has a "short" attention span, too yet he still manages to find time to have ernest conversations with me.
