Firstly..make your crush comfortable while talking to you
See if there is any topic,she is not willing to talk..simply avoid it.
Aprt from that know her interest and try to find common interest and talk about them for starters..
Alsi give few compliments.. Not soo obvious..neither too cliché. Simple yet impactful.. Like about her eyes..voice smile or may b fragrance too.
You can talk about anything and everything. You can keep things simple like what happened to you today. Maybe something funny. Eventually this will stand as an icebreaker and conversation will flow smoothly.

If its a guy talk about sports and thing he likes but if its a girl talk about shows and gossip with her.
I would suggest not talking about past partners as some people dislike this. You can talk to them about whatever you two have in common such as gaming, reading, the news etc. If you talk about what your crush has an interest in, it will help them feel like they have a connection with you. Try not to talk too much and make sure they're not bored either. We can all get carried away. Let them talk the most, once they start talking, they'll be thankful you were there to listen and let them rant away. Hope this helps.
Oooh, talking to crushes can be so nerve-wracking, I applaud you for being brave! I like to try and find something/a few things in common with a person, and talk about that! Anything like that would be interesting for both of you, and can help to build a stronger connection with them.

How about whether or not the Seahawks are going to win the Superbowl this year? I'm kidding, sort of ;) But seriously, levity is the answer. Talk about light topics - things you know he or she enjoys doing or is interested in. Talk about your own likes and interests, but keep it light. Smile, laugh, make eye contact, breathe. We are more attractive to others when we are not trying to be attractive (in all forms). Often the anxiety we feel when we are overly concerned with how we are "being" in the presence of another can be detrimental to establishing and maintaining a successful relationship. Again, breathe.

I don´t know, maybe about the fact that you like her (or him), we have to express what we feel, because, we don´t know when that person will leave our live, so, the best thing we can do is, open up and being sincere with that person, and, with yourself.

In my opinion, you can talk about various of things with your crush if you are friend with him/her. You can try showing how much you care for him by asking him questions about his day, how is his condition and stuffs like that - this can be a conversation topic with him. You can also tell him about how you feel and what you have been through. It is important to not only focus on yourself, give him time to talk and share his experiences too.

Be as casual as possible while dropping small hints that you may want to go out with the male or female in question.

about what he or she likes, but still keep it simple, you can talk about his or hers future career that also helps but its always a good idea to have normal friend talks
You can speak to your crush about what there hobbies are, what they are interesting in, about there family, just speak to them like anyone else

Music and movies are great conversation starters! If you're both into the same types of movies and music then you can plan a movie date or even go to a concert together
Talk about his/her interests! Whether it's a hobby, favourite show or book. It's important to see if both of you share the same interests and to see if you're compatible. You might want to reconsider the crush if both of you are vastly different.
Hello
You may need to find out what topics interests him/her and what things you have in common that you can easily chat away about

Ask lots of questions and listen to responses. Find similar likes that way. Music, books, movies. :)
Uh, this is hard. Listen, you should ask her/him what he/she likes. Like a normal person, nothing too personal. Just chill

Be yourself. Here's a tip: You're cute when you're confident, not so much when you aren't.

Try to discuss feelings or find out if they like you through a friend discuss interests etc try to be yourself
Anything that comes to mind! You do not want to over plan when connecting with people. Just be yourself and see if things progress! If not, don't worry it just isnt a match! Your match is out there you just have to find them!
1. How your day went
2. what makes you happy
3. your hobbies
4. your future plans
5. your dreams and ambitions
Ask him/her what makes them smile. You'll get to know what they like and care about. It will start a conversation. It will also make them smile when you ask this question.
A lot of things, get to know them better. For example, favourite food, favourite colour, favourite shopping store, favourite outfit, favourite storybook, author. ANYTHING.
In my experience, talking about the weather wasn't a great subject. If you're not that close to your crush, get to know them! Ask about their family, their life, their hope for their future. Once you get really close to them, you can start asking them questions which will really engage them in conversation. These questions may seem very weird to you but they will strengthen your relationship. For example, would you rather questions. This is because it will set you aside from the other people your crush talks to. When your crush thinks about you, he/she will think about the unique questions you asked which will keep you in his/her mind for longer and make you stand out from the others.
Everything you feel like sharing would be good to be expressed to your crush.
It is not about what you are able or not able to talk about, but it is more about the way someone expresses feelings, thoughts and ideas. When this happens in a pleasant and polite way there is nothing that should be unsaid in my opinion!
You should not have to limit who you are around them and be able to talk about anything. If you have to limit yourself then they are not the person for you.
