I've been going out with my boyfriend for a year now. Today on the phone he said something that's really struck me "I don't have anything to talk about really".
Have you been in this situation after a year? Is it normal?
I'm worried that the conversation dying is a sign of something else.

Yes, its a sign of something else! He's an international fugitive on the run from interpol and saying anything else over the bugged phone call would give away his hiding place!
Chances are he actually did run out of things to say, happens to me and my fiance sometimes, things just go quiet in a conversation.

Sometimes just knowing that you don't have to say anything on the phone and just listen to each others silences without it bothering you is the sign of a good relationship.

LMAO. Nice one bishman. 
Honestly, for summer break I've talked to my bf on the phone but at times I just run out of things to say. He usually does the talking to fill in the gap of awkward silence lol.
I don't think its a sign of anything. If you're worried about it then telll him about it on the phone. It's like killing two birds with one stone really. The conversation doesn't stop and you find out what's going on. Which i would assume is nothing to worry about.

Thank you. Exactly what I needed to hear
To be honest, about half the 'conversations' with my ex didn't involve talking about things. Just humming, playing music down the phone, playing silly games etc. were just as good as a conversation about actual 'issues'. Generally speaking, conveying information, opinions and feelings are essentially, but really having a phone call with a partner is also about enjoying each other's presence (well, verbal presence).

Somethimes I talk the most random of things to my bf. I once told him about some weird dream I had. And most of the time it's just like "Yeah" and "Sooo yeah..". It's not about actually discussing huge things but just knowing they are there is all you need.

I hate it when people persistently call you when they have nothing to say. Then you end up talking bollox for half an hour . .. and at the back of my mind I'm thinking, "Why are you even calling me for?"
Lol don't worry about it. My boyfriend of 1yr and 8months and I don't always have things to talk about. Sometimes the day's just been uneventful and we're not quite in the mood for it. Sometimes we'd both be bored and he'd wanna play games. And in a sense, you're so comfortable around the person that it's ok not to talk and you don't need to be talking.
Either way, it's quite normal really. I mean, if you asked me how my day was I really wouldn't have much to say.

You don't have to talk all the time. It doesn't mean you don't love each other, just that real life is actually pretty dull.
I only call my bf about twice a week, when we've built up a load of semi-interesting events to tell each other about. Most of the time it just ends up with one of us ranting on about something silly to fill any gaps of silence, or just descends into us talking couply nonsense at each other. It's more about spending time together and hearing each other's voice than what's actually said.
