I think that's very important.  What's the point in dating someone if
you can't talk with them?  I've had it happen a lot where I would be dating
someone and he just couldn't talk to me.  One way I learned to overcome
that was to learn to be able to converse about various things, like
cars, woodworking, boating, and such - sometimes people who don't know
what to say will respond enthusiastically if you bring up a topic they
are comfortable with.

It doesn't always work, but it helps often.
