I completely understand what you are saying. I'm exactly the same, and it doesn't mean he is not interested in you, its that men don't usually like talking on the phone. I prefer face to face conversation, nice dinner, something more interactive than laying in the bed watching TV listening to somebody talk. It could also be that he is tired and its late and he wants to go to bed but he doesn't want to tell you because he thinks this might hurt your feelings. I suggest that if you talk to him on the phone, keep conversations as short as possible, talk about what you did during the day, and ask questions about things he likes instead of you talking about what you like, go straight to the point. Hope this helps, and good luck with your relationship.

If he's saying he likes you, I wouldn't worry. Besides, you said you "just got" a boyfriend-so you guys are still a "new relationship." The ideas for things to talk about will come as you guys spend more time together and remain a couple for a longer period of time.
One idea for making conversations more interesting is, believe it or not, not talking very often. You can't call him every day and expect deep, wonderful conversations every time. Just call a couple times a week, that way you'll have days worth of things to talk about.
Overall, I wouldn't worry about the dull phone conversations too much. I've been with my current g/f for over a year and we still have trouble finding things to talk about sometimes.
Hope I was helpful :)

Don't try to force a conversation, or it just gets awkward. Just talk about what's going on at that time in your lives. Talk about school, and friends, complain about your parents or siblings, talk about what you want to do after high school. Ask him about music or movies he likes. Find out if he has any hobbies and ask him about those. Show an interest in him and what he likes and he'll open up more.

Yeah, lots of first 'relationships' are kinda like that and that first stage can be a bit awkward in any so just start with general things and you should hook onto some common subject pretty quickly, so like what did you do in school today, or did you see what so and so did at lunch.

Many highschool relationships start off like this. You just have to push through it.
Go out more often so that you two have something else to relate to.
Go out to restraurants, movies, mini-golf, etc. Yeah at first it will be a little awkward but you two will eventually get through it and be very talkative.

What did you do today?
Did you see what happened on TV?
What shows are you going to watch tonight?
What did you have for breakfast?
Every topic can lead to a discussion. After a while it will come easier. Good luck, babe.

do something other than talking on the phone.
do something fun like.... going to the park or something. then a convo. will just come up, and you'll still be having tonz of fun.

I thank you need to ask him what he is interested in and then learn about it so when you talk you can know what he is talking about.

gosh ....that must be really irritating....doin all the talkin...n getting silence from the other end!
try asking him something about himself...like his studies...or his friends....or his family!!
try merging stuff...such as.....'my __uncle has a horse(or nything ) wat pets hav u had in your family..." or something like that...!!
just a thought....maybe he has some problemz goin on in his family....or life....n doesnt knw how to open up...!!
try sharing some probemz of your wid him...ask 4 his advice....that would make him feel important...and hopefully open his mouth!! ^_^
does he call u or are u the one who calls him up???
