I often try to make online friends on like social media and stuff ( or just talk to people with a similar interest) and at first people talk back if I try to make a conversations but sometimes people just talk to me for a day and suddenly they won't respond anymore while you've seen that they have seen the message.
Do you guys have any tips for me to make a conversation interesting or have you ever done that before?
( I'm just curious and I don't hope they find me boring or anything)

I guess it just takes time to find someone who you have a connection with - mutual interests, hobbies, likes, dislikes, etc. Having things in common allows you to form the initial connection which could lead into a healthy discussion or debate and can allow you to talk further. Talking about your dislikes can sometimes be a great way to converse as you can both argue back and forth about the thing you dislike - though this may just be me... :P

Yeah, same here. Except it tends to be me. I'll see someone who's interacting with my friends' stuff on like Instagram, and if they're cute or whatever, I shoot them a follow and go from there. Which, yes, is shallow. But it's often worth a try.
The problem is that you're using the internet. You may see this guy/gal with a lot of the same friends and think that you would be great friends with them, but in reality, they could be completely fake. I know of several "people" who are accounts composed entirely of Google images that appear to be friends with a majority of my real friends. The problem is that you really just don't know what you're getting into.
The best way to meet people is face-to-face or through mutual friends. If you score someone's number or snapchat, but have literally zero in common with them besides am attraction to their body, you can all but expect for them to just leave. I've had that happen so many times it's not even funny.

I am the same I'm afraid, I can even talk to someone for weeks and then all of a sudden it's either like I became immediately boring or we ran out of things to talk about. :(
Hope you find someone interesting and cool to talk to, give me a PM if you think I might be? :)
