How to stop being a bore
Practice active listening.
One of the best ways to be an engaging conversationalist is to focus on active listening, where you listen and respond to someone in a way that improves mutual understanding. Practicing active listening means viewing every conversation as a learning opportunity or as a way to get to know someone better.
When you actively listen to someone, they can tell you are fully engaged in what they are saying. They will also be able to tell that you are ready to respond to their comments with energy and engagement, making your conversations less boring and meaningless.
