At first we would find things to talk about without much of a problem, but after the first couple of months it started to feel to me that we didn't have much to talk about. She is not very responsive most of the time during conversations, and doesn't really initiate them herself. It feels hard for me to find topics to talk about for some reason and I was just wondering if I'm reading too much into this and what can I do to get conversations rolling again.Thank you very much for your help!

I was once married to a guy like this and I wish I would've seen the signs earlier in the relationship. I eventually got very bored because I never felt challenged by him since he never had two words to say; he never opened up about things, never shared things etc. It's all a matter of individual choice, but the relationship eventually fell flat because I got tired of doing all the talking and felt emotionally starved for communication.
