would you still go out socially with them. If yes, how do you make things more interesting

What do you mean "IF"? All of my friends are boring as I'm sure I bore them sometimes. I just live through the boring times and enjoy the good times.

Go out with a group rather than just the two of you then conversation will be more interesting. Give them a few drinks and maybe try and include them in the group conversation a bit more. It depends in which way they are boring. Does your friend take over the conversation and bore everyone to death or are they just quiet and shy boring? Contrast their bad personality traits by going out with opposite types as a group and see if they can meet in the middle! Encourage your boring friend to become more interesting. Maybe if they are boring you could instigate some interesting activity or situation with them.

Of course you would still go out with them socially..
I have a few friends that aren't quite as "exciting" as the others... But that doesn't mean i ditch them..
Try doing things with your other friends and including them.. maybe that will spice things up a bit! :)

I can understand how it feels but try and make him indulge in some sought of intresting games or conversations that he likes and try and start a convo which you know that he will certainly respond. Just imagine how does you feel when someone say that yu are boring, so do not try and hurt him by any words and i am sure you won't do that but try and get him out of his world and help him/her in participating in different activities.

What's interesting about your friend? What made this person interesting to you, in the first place? What has changed?

At one time or another we may be the boring one, just be kind and perhaps you will bring this person out a bit and you will learn more about her/him and yourself. Give her/him lots of other chances.

Firstly you accept them as they are, rather than than trying to directly change them - you say he/she is a friend so you must find something interesting about him/her or they wouldn't be your friend. Maybe the person is happy as they are? Either way, subtly trying to help rather than speaking directly may help!

I tried that once. It depends if you and the friend have things in common. If not, it won't work unless you both try new things. And she has to be willing, of course.

Be more interesting yourself. Perhaps your friend finds you boring.

I can't be with a boring person. That would drive me insane.
