How to keep a conversation going with him? Pleasee Help!!!?

if your a quiet personality then I dont know how you can change your communication pattern. The only thing I can think of is that sometimes we are not compatable with someone, some we really click with and or have heaps in common we can talk and talk and talk. My bf though is not a big talked he is focussed on us a lot but not so much about stuff outside of us... its been hard for me to get used to as I am a intellectual communicator where he is an emotional communicator. I have learnt to accept his quietness and retreating to reflect but he always comes back..because I have deep feelings for him and essentially we have excellent communication and accept each others differences. I know you say you love him but you are young and if you have been dating on and off have you really experienced being with other guys to see if your communication patterns are different.... good luck
