This always happens we have never anything to talk about on facebook like she will say whats up and the conversation will last like 10 replies. But in person we got along great. Is this normal and does this happen to anyone else. Do you have any advice what we can talk in facebook or in phone. Maybe some topic that more interesting and can make us have a nice conversation.

i think we should share our public issues and matters on social networking.
the personal communication as with ur gf/bf should be limited to phone and personal chats only.
This will keep your privacy.

Hi. mathikyu. Welcome to myLot! Well I guess your girlfriend just wants to talk to you on Facebook while you are on there. Me and my husband don't have any conversations on Facebook. We talk at home. I did have one conversation with him, on my old account and he posted back to it and that was all. Maybe you should throw hints to your girlfriend that you just prefer to talk on the telephone versus talking on Facebook.

It is normal to feel awkward when talking to your lover over a social networking site, or through phone. Always remember that these are public domains. If you want to talk to her electronically, you can use email. Have you and your girlfriend setup a totally different account from the one you are using; the new email addresses will be exclusive for both of you.
Still, seeing and talking together is the best way of communicating because there is an element of intimacy.

You need to spice up your life. Go out, do fun things. Go on trips. Then you will have talk subjects.

It is a bit different to talk to someone through a phone and or instant messaging as we are sort of limited. Maybe the other person is not so much into typing, as I am one that does not like to sms, but I can type for hours.

Maybe it isnt really awkward, but there's a limitation when you talk through these social networking sites. Unlike when you talk in person, the conversation is simultaneous and there's a lot to discuss, even little things like the things/people around you.
