the gf just broke up with me. This was my first real relationship and we were only going out for less than a year.
I was clear with her when we first met that I'm socially retarded and don't know how to talk to girls. At the time she thought it was cute that I was an awkward handsome guy, but now she thinks it's annoying and that I'm incapable of carrying a conversation. And she's right.
I'm comfortable around her, but I just have nothing to say sometimes. When I try and push something out it's usually not thought out or off topic. It makes me sound insincere idiot.
How do I stop being boring and improve my conversation skills so I can grow as a person?

I'm in a similar boat than you. The best thing you could do is practicing talking to all kinds of people, not just your gf. The fact that she broke up with you is actually beside the point, it just serves as kind of a lesson.
The one thing you have on me is the will to change, so you're already much better off.
Practice. Make an effort to talk to people in your life, co-workers or whatever, whoever's around. It'll make you better at small talk.
Also find a girl who's comfortable with not yammering on non-stop about dumb shit. A real relationship is one where you can lapse into silence without it being awkward.

>bitch didnt respect your issues and try to help you
find a girl who wants to improve her partner, as all relationships should have a great deal of fixing each others weaknesses
she shouldnt take what you say for granted, the fact that she took your warning that you were awkward and like like "oh thats cute" is insulting
