Writing dialogue is not as hard as you're letting it seem. You have dialogue all the time -- it's called talking. If you honestly cannot think of what your characters are going to say to one another, you need to go take a break and go somewhere out in public. Sit somewhere in the middle of a crowd for one to two hours and just listen to people talking. Then, go home and write down some of the things you heard people saying. That's dialogue.
When you need to have your characters talk, just pretend it's you and a friend (or several friends), and have them say something you'd probably say in the same situation. Then imagine what your friends would say in reply, and go back and forth that way. As you become a better writer, your characters themselves will "tell" you what they want to say, because they become like real people to you.
*Note: this dialogue will be critiqued at the end*
Here is an example of an original dialogue between three made up characters.
"I don't understand why he would leave," Mrs. Anderson said once more, looking worried now. Dr. Grenton looked rather nervous also, though he was not intending to. Ms. Thistlewale spoke from under her flowered hat, "Dear me! He has left again!" Dr. Grenton was pacing now and stroking his gray beard that hung from his long wheathered face.
"I just don't understand why the boy would do such a thing," he muttered. Ms. Thistlewale was growing nervous also. She put down the china teacup she held in her dainty hands.
"What have we ought to do about it?" she asked. Mrs. Anderson said in a gruff voice from the chair she slumped in, "I'll tell you what we ought to do about it! Forget about the matter completely, that's what!" Ms. Thistlewale looked away from her and turned back to pacing Dr. Grenton.
"I think I have an idea, but it will not be easy to do," he said quietly. Ms. Anderson sat up in her seat, and Ms. Thistlewale perked up.
"Indeed, do tell us, doctor!" Mrs. Thistlewale exclaimed. Dr. Grenton said quietly, "Come to the parlor and we shall speak where no one will hear us. I do not want the spies to hear what is to be discussed." The two women followed Dr. Grenton to the parlor, where he shut the doors.
"This is serious business, ladies. Do not tell a soul of what I am about to say, and what is said must be carried through." Mrs. Thistlewale nodded.
"Indeed, sir." Dr. Grenton cleared his throat.
"Okay, I shall begin."
Critique: Notice how all the "she muttered," "he exclaimed," and "he said quietly" jerks you right out of the story line? You don't need to use anything other than "he said" or "he asked." There is also NO P.O.V character, which jerks you back and forth from one person's head to the other's and is very confusing. There's also a heck of a lot of repetition, which is boring.
Here's a better version of the same dialogue with the reasons I have changed each part:
Mrs. Anderson sat rigidly in her seat, fiddling with her purse.
"Oh dear," Mrs. Thistlewale said from beneath her flowered hat. Her voice quivered. "Has he left again?"
Dr. Granton paced back and forth, stroking his gray beard. His narrow face was pulled down into a frown. "I can't imagine why the boy would do such a thing."
Mrs. Thistlewale put down her teacup with a loud clink. "What ought we to do about it?"
Mrs. Anderson spoke gruffly. "I'll tell you what we ought -- we ought to forget the matter entirely!" She crossed her arms and leaned back in the chair. Mrs. Thistlewale cleared her throat softly and glanced away. She looked up at the doctor.
He stopped pacing and stared at the ceiling for a moment before giving each of them a long, steady look. "I have an idea, but it will not be easy to do."
