How do I hold a conversation? I feel like I don't know what to say during one and the awkward silence is killing me.
I work in the IT, don't have any close friends that you can go out and have a drink for example and I'm starting to feel lonely.

When you run out of things to say then start asking the other person or people about themselves. Get them to talk.

You can never run out of things to say if you talk about what's happening around you at the time. Anything that's current.

talking is vastly overrated
look into social dancing :) contra cajun swing zydeco - all easy enough to learn, don't need to bring a partner, not much talking - would you like to dance ?
really just go & see what it's like you can stand
there like a dweeb for a few minutes then leave, or you can jump in & have fun !

>This guy wants to hold a conversation not dance
hmmm.... i figured he wanted to learn how to talk so he could chase girls which is usually the next step
but maybe he just wants to flap those lips & hear airwaves ?

Talking if essential to catching a person's interest. It shows confidence and personality that can be relatable. Your on the wrong thread if you respond with dancing to a question about holding a conversation without getting nervous. Because according to you "full proof plan" when ever get gets nervous and runs out of what to say he should spontaneously breaking into a dance and freak out the people has trying to impress. Because.

You sir are an idiot.
