You asking this already tells me that your finding it hard to find common grounds with your boyfriend. Conversations usually just flow when you click with someone ask yourself if you two click. But on the other hand it your honestly just confused then talk about anything from how your day was to random stuff.

You can talk to him about how you are feeling, and listen to his feelings as well. Communication is key.
Whatever seems the most natural! I find that the best conversations I have are the ones which come naturally and aren't forced. Maybe, if you're struggling with things to talk about, you could come up with a list of pre-prepared topics of conversation, that way, you'll never run out of things to talk about. Nevertheless, I assume once you both start talking about one topic, that'll open some doors for you to talk about even more! As you keep doing this, the conversations between you guys will become much more fluid and natural; it won't feel forced. Best of luck

What you want to do later in life, childhood stories, hobbies, things to do together. Sometimes silence isn't awkward.

You can speak about how your days went and even make future plans. Another idea is asking him questions so you can get to him even more if the relationship is still new
Talking on the phone with a boyfriend can take for hours, you can talk about pretty much anything it is also a time where you can tell him about your day, about your ambitions or things that you have in common.
If you have a good relationship, you should be able to talk about anything! Your boyfriend should be your best friend, you can talk about what's going on in your life, what you're feeling about personal events, and just whatever pops into your head

anything you guys want!!! thats the joy of relationships be funny,sweet, whatever you want!!!!!!!!!!
Ask him how his day was and tell him about what you did. At the end of a day it is nice to connect with a significant other on the phone if you could not see each other in person that day. Make each other feel listened to.
Daily life of what happened in your work. Future planning to settle down and what are the expectations that we both want to achieve together.
Anything! Anything that you have a common interest of, when you might meet up, make natural conversation, don't force it :)
Talking with your boyfriend/girlfriend on the phone can help relationships. You and your S.O should also be friends and close. When talking on the phone you can talk about anything. Talk about your day or what you are doing. Talk about something you have in common or tell each other jokes.
Literally whatever you want :) The weather, your outfit for the day, about him, honestly anything. So many options!

You can talk about how each other's day has been or you can ask if there's anything interesting happened lately. You can also just be silent together and enjoy each other's company if you don't have anything to talk about. Appreciate him and cherish the relationship :)
Yesterday, today, life goals, how to achieve life goals, things you have seen on social media like YouTube/Instagram/Facebook etc. Talk about what you'd like to do together, just random stuff, there should be a click that it happens automatically.

if you share any common interests perhaps you could start there, or even asking about their day can usually lead into a conversation. asking questions about things can help keep a conversation going too

You could talk to him about your day, and your plans for the week. Also, you could discuss your plans the next time the two of you meet.
You can talk about a lot of things. If unsure, you can look up some questions online that you could both answer or you could play a game over the phone (Truth or Dare, Two Truths and a Lie).

Well, that depends on the type of relationship you have and of the lenght of the relationship. You should feel comfortable talking about anything, your boyfriend should be your friend in the first place, a person that you can talk nonsens to or important, meaningful stuff.
Imagine you're with him in person and talk about all the stuff you'd tell him normally. It can be stressful at the beginning, but you'll get used to it slowly. Also, little silence is not such a big problem if that makes you nervous :) you can make a list of what happened during the day and you'd like to tell him about before you call him. That could help too :) good luck.

Likes and dislikes. Goals for the future. I think it is a good idea to talk too about beliefs. So he knows some important things. What do you expect from the relationship, from him.
How do you see yourself in the future.

Sharing talks with a boyfriend on the telephone this is simply the simple things that's been going on throughout your own day and little by little share a little more things as your conversation grows as well as your confidence. But most importantly is trying not to overwhelm each other with so many things that can immediately just shut down the boyfriend on the other side of the phone
Well good things to discuss would be simple things such as how their day went or how the work day is going. Possibly making plans for future dates is also a good thing to discuss together ☺
Whatever is bothering you, you can also talk about things you like, or things he likes. There's also what you want to do in life. Or your dreams you have for your future.
You could talk about places you two want to visit together, or what you hope to achieve in your life and his.
There's so much you can talk about.. just start with a classic "how was your day?", and then share something funny, strange or interesting that has happened to you, or you have seen/read etc. This would probably help thinking of related things to say, and the conversation will go on smoothly! Otherwise tell him about something you have done and particularly liked, or somewhere you've been to and wish to come back to.. stuff like that! :)

Find common ground that can help the discourse. Sharing thoughts and feelings is an important part of the relationship. Taking the time to listen and appreciate their point of view is essential.
