If you don't know how to keep a convo.. just learn to ask open ended questions. Once you master the eye contact part people be making the effort to keep the conversation going with you. 
also you will learn to not take anything too personally so if a conversation dulls out after you are done talking you most likely made a good point and people have nothing else to say except take what you say and acknowledge it. I dull out alot of conversations but I don't worry about it anymore. Even if they feel like oh Ryan you ruined the vibe.. it doesn't matter to me. sometimes that happens to us all. There's a whole lot more to it than that and I am not the most verbal or well written person when explaining myself. You have to be face to face with me sometimes to really understand what I'm saying. But what you should take from my post is to not worry about it as much as you can. If something like this happens.. let it go as best u can and focus on yourself. Ask yourself does it really matter? or do I really need this? or just ask yourself what's the bigger picture? you'll be wondering for hours and forget what just happened.
