Why would you want to be more talkative?! 'Silence is golden', as they say, and certainly often much better than the incessant mindless chatter (aka small talk) that seems to be expected of everyone. My principle is: if you have something to say, say it, but if not then keep schtum.
If you want to learn to be a better conversationalist, that's a whole different thing, and much recommended: whether you talk a little or a lot, it's good if you can do it well and have something interesting to say! You might try reading eg. Dale Carnegie's "How to Win Friends and Influence People" for starters.

Try small talk initially-then think of something that may interest them or enlarge on what they are saying. Just keep going and you will be confident is asking questions.
Listening and ask questions relating to that subject even if it is not particulary interesting. Try a touch of humour..

Your right. We don't like to be the sole talker. It's coming from your own insecurities. Be proud of who you are. And what you believe in. Be willing to boast about what you've done. And what you're gonna be doing. And what you're not willing to do for Public approval. Trust Your Heart.

Please don't! Chatterboxes get more attention when they're very young, but after a while guys realize how tiresome and boring it is. Just smile a lot and ask people about themselves. That will get them talking and let you off the hook. While they're yakking, make eye contact. People will soon admire you.

i hate girls who talk a lot-its just meaningless noise.You shouldn't envy them-talking a lot usually means not saying anything important.I prefer quiet girls who don't waste words.You wouldn't want to be Jade,would you?
