I'll talk specific and then I'll talk general. And, yes, my profile age is correct so if you ask my sons, I'm an old man and don't know anything. But I'm not as dumb as they think I am. I think.

What I'm about to write covers lots of guys. But not all. I'll get to that point later. Guys like sports. Cars. School. Music. YouTube. TV. Movies. FOOD! :) Games. But most also like animals (cats, dogs, hamsters, etc.). Camping. Ice skating. American Football. Soccer. Others like drawing, theatre, or books. Still others are band/orchestra or chorus.

So, the key to talking to them is twofold: show them you're interested and ask them questions. People want other people to be interested in them. Always (that'll be true throughout life). Ask them questions. But don't make them "yes" or "no" questions. Make them ones that he can answer easily and build upon what he tells you. "What do you think of math?" "Math sucks!" "So what do you like?" "history?" "Do you read a lot?" "No, reading sucks too. I'd rather skateboard." "I've never done that. What's it like?" And go from there. You don't have to know all about the topics -- the goal is to build a connection. But if you do know, then all the better. Maybe you both go to church together or you both draw or whatever.

Another way/idea is to talk about you and make HIM ask questions. Make him want to learn about you. "I'm scared of sailing." "Why?" "When I was 8 my dad threw me off a dock to learn to swim." "So, like, are you scared of the water or something?" "I guess so. But it's more around boats." "Well, do you like to swim anyway?" "I do like to swim!" "Yeah, me too; I'm on the swim team." And then you're back to being able to ask him questions and make a connection.

The classic "What do you like" connected to anything is always a good conversation starter or rejuvenator.

"Have you seen this video?" is another and then show them whatever it is. The conversation will take off, generally, and follow down the rabbit hole of YouTube.

Bottom line, be interested (and interesting) and ask questions that require answers that aren't yes or no.

Best wishes with this!

Considering that you are 14 and the guy you wanna talk might be 14 or 15 you can have conversations about games and stuff. Many guys are into games irrespective of their age. Multiplayer console games maybe its PvP shooting, arcade or open world game maximum number of guys and comparative less number of girls love games. Hence it can be a good thing to start of with. Even if you aren't a pro gamer but the want of you to know more about what he likes and you trying to learn it just for sake of spending time with him is more than enough for guys. And yes I do play games and it really feels awesome when I meet a friend of mine who are into games and we talk a lot about different games and experiences. So is true with action or sci fi or thriller horror movies. Also about a certain sport. Guys are generally into at least 1 sport. My answer is more based on how personally I feel but I do know the fact that its general for most if not all boys.

Hobbies, sports, the color of paint... just have a normal conversation

If the guy is your age and he is active, why not talk to him about the sports he enjoys, the movies he seen and liked, the music he prefers...

If you want to open things up, tell him a little something about yourself you never told anyone before. Nothing too personal, but maybe just something you have an opinion about or always wanted share or ask a guy. He may return the favor and tell you something about himself. Then you start relating on a deeper level than just the usual stuff people talk about... like the weather.

Anything he's interested in. People love to talk about things they are passionate about. You just have to find out what that is and once you find out go with that.
