How to find a nice topic when talking to friends Всякая всячина

Every time when I see people online, all I can say is hi, how r u, what r u doing, I can’t find a nice topic and that’s, obviously, awkward. I mean I really want to talk to people, like anything to anyone, but I can’t find a way to start the conversation.
Anybody knows how to deal with that???

I love to talk about cats, food and regional dishes. Seeing you are a teenager. If you talk with other teenager: you can talk about school and the subjects you like! Greetings

I feel the same but the least you can do is try not to over take the conversation and try to hear out what they find cool. However look at their profiels to get a hint about what they like

I try to find what they like and what they may have in common with me. From there, it is pretty easy. Ask questions about what got them interested in that subject or that kind of pet or whatever it is that they have in common with you. How long hae they owned that pet or were they born in whatever town is listed. I look up on line about the city they live in and try to find ut the history of the city or town or even the region. Are there mountain there? Hae they been to the mountains?. What was their favorite subject in school? What is thier favorite flower or color. I try to learn what they like.
