i'm a fairly quite person and i tend to at times just sit there and listen. but sometimes the conversation goes no where and there is just silence. i ask the person if everything is okay, and they say yes but i know it would be more interesting if i was talking more.

what are some good ice breakers or conversation openers when meeting a new person or getting to know someone. i'm tired of always asking about their life stories. maybe we could talk about something more intriguing and soulful and not so superficial and empty.
