What makes someone good at conversation?

knowing your "audience" and what they're open to talking about

Giving others the time to talk.
And responding to what they say, not how it relates entirely to you.

And yes ....the second but I'm REALLY bad at 😞

Listening skills, and being none judgemental

range, having an interest, being able to connect seemingly unrelated topics. at least to me; that doesn't really seem to work so well for me anymore. I still enjoy it.

Conversation is a two way street.
LISTENING and engaging in the subject are necessary.
Keeping up with current events, reading a lot or keeping informed on subject matters all contribute to being a good conversationalist

Listen, listen and list and then respond, not react.

So many like to talk and take over the whole conversation and make it all about themselves.

When you chat and it's midnight, next thing you know, it's 5:45 am and you hate to say goodnight.

Listening, questioning, engaging, commenting, but most of all listening

Not being terrified of human interaction

Understanding, respect and honesty.

Having...content.

Listening.

Honesty and politeness during chat....other person should feel comfortable with you, give them enough room...

Well I added you in my circle as you are genetically Indian 😌

Being funny and reading the vibe. Listening to the main points. Not forcing stuff counts as well.

Listening, asking furthering questions, since of humor, compassion and understanding, and open mind to name a few.

an equal give and take--not unlike improv in that one reacts to the other and the conversation unfolds

You are on SW there won't be any good conversation lol

Patience!
