You should use the translator of this page, but I will help you out this time. It seems like it's a question and it means "do you wanna talk with me?".
Also, the verb "chalar" might be wrong and it must be "charlar" that means "chat" or "talk".
Do you want to chat/ talk with me?
Do you feel like chatting with me?
Also, you want to say, "What does "Te apetece charlar conmigo" mean?"

...if it was only the translation you were looking for .. then the "translate" functionality is available on this site ... and It can come in handy for simple translations
...you could try putting the sentence into the "translate" function above
Considering three out of four respondents offered up similar recommendations, I wonder how many people have actually bothered to check what sort of machine translations are available for a given phrase or expression before offering up such advice.
If we take into account the original expression, poor spelling and all....
te apetece chalar conmigo
then we end up with the following three machine translations:
fancy chalar Conmigo
You don't fancy me chalar
you feel like driving crazy with me
That is not the point - some effort should be made - SD is not a translation service
No. Perhaps not. Clearly, advice such as "look it up on this site's translator" is of very little value in terms of a translation service, especially when one considers the resultant "translations."
On the other hand, such responses also provide very little benefit if the stated goal is that of fostering a positive learning environment. In the long run, wouldn't it be more beneficial to simply correct the original misspelling and then prompt, poke, prod or persuade our most lowly supplicant to provide an attempted translation—or at the very least, a more detailed account of what exactly about the phrase was so bedeviling in the first place.
I could very well be wrong—and I often am—but it just seems to me that a true learning website should not be so hasty when it comes to sweeping certain types of questions under the rug. Can't we extend people the same benefit of the doubt that we would want for ourselves? Can't we probe just a tiny a bit more, peeling back the opaque layers of confusion to reach a core level of understanding and clarity?
Can't we just help?
The verb apetecerse means to feel like / fancy doing something
¿Te apetece charlar conmigo? means, Do you feel like chatting with me?
I hope this helps 
As the gentlemen above have mentioned .. the verb you have mentioned in your sentence must be charlar (to chat) .. and apetecer means to make some one crave ... and it works differently than the usual spanish verbs .. you can appreciate the working of apetecer if you may already be familiar with the working of verbs like gustar and encantar ...
Let me state an example here : me apetece tomar una taza de café (a mi).. in english you may translate it as "I have a craving to have a cup of coffee" or "I am dying to have a cup of coffee" or even "I am fancying a cup of coffee" hehe .. but the literal translation (which may not make much sense in English ,, as we don't speak like that in English) will be ... to have a cup of coffee is causing a craving to me... In this sentence the whole clause which I have highlighted in bold is the Subject (it is a noun clause acting as the subject of the sentence) .. there is no direct object as this is an intransitive verb .. and me is the indirect object pronoun ... because coffee is causing the craving "to me" (so I am the indirect object and "me"(the Spanosh Indirect Obj. Pronoun) is representing me in the sentence).. Now, if you understand the grammatical working of the verb apetecer ,, we can now switch to your sentence , which is "te apetece charlar conmigo" ... now if we disect this sentence gramatically (and compare it with the example I stated above) .. in this sentence ,, "charlar conmigo" is the noun clause and is acting as the stand alone subject of the sentence (doing the action of causing the craving or desire etc.) And "te" is again the indirect object pronoun (you) ,, and In this context it may be rude or inappropriate to use the word "craving" as we are talking about a person this time (and not a cup of coffee or some other inanimate object) so in this case the meaning for apetecer can be thought of as "to make some one desire or long for" .. so if I give you a literal translation "which will sound eccentric to an English speaker" .. it would be some thing like "does chating with me cause a desire/longing to you" haha so now we can convert it to the English format " are you desirous of chating with me " or " do you long for chating with me " ...
I gave you a detailed explication so next time you could figure it out yourself .. hehe ....but if it was only the translation you were looking for .. then the "translate" functionality is available on this site ... and It can come in handy for simple translations .... Buena Suerte
As for the statement, "sweeping certain types of questions under the rug", no one here has done that. SD does not do that nor do they advocate doing that.
First, let me apologize for any ruffled feathers my statements may have caused. Certainly, there were several people who made efforts to answer the original question. Jimmy1978, for example, was particularly generous in his attempt to adequately expound upon various aspects of the original question. That being said, it's also true that all but one of the respondents either led or closed with the admonishment to "use the translation tool for such questions."
The implications here are twofold. That is to say that such a suggestion presumes that (1) the translation tool has not already been consulted and that (2) the translation tool would be a reliable place to start for this question.
The problem, then, lies in the fact that the translation tool, in this case, provides very little, if anything, in the way of help or clarity on this matter. The suggestions to use the tool, in this case, are not beneficial but can actually further confound things for the person already struggling to grasp the meaning of this phrase.
While the original poster could have certainly done themselves a better service by being a bit more detailed in the way in which their question was presented. I think it also fair to say that those offering the advice to check with the translation tool could have, likewise, been a bit more diligent in checking the soundness of their own advice.
In any case, I apologize again for any ruffled feathers my words may have caused. I assure you that the tone of my "virtual voice" is in no way meant to be belligerent, but rather, filled with sympathy, hope and a profound desire to foster an inclusive atmosphere for all learners, casual or otherwise.
If you go to the google translator and you write the exact same phrase that he wrote, google asks you if you meant "charlar" instead of "chalar". So that's not a problem I think
This is what I got...
Admittedly, Google translate does offer the suggestion of "hablar" in place of "chalar," but the original translation is still dreadful, not to mention the fact that unless one already has some familiarity with the word "charlar," the suggestion to use "hablar" might actually do more to confound matters than to clarify them.
