They normally tell me shite they want me to know and vice versa. Im not going to have a conversation like I am trying to interrogate them.

I’m convinced people - especially women - enjoy talking about themselves.

It’s the easiest way 1. To get them to trust you and 2. To think you actually give a damn

Do they belong in a different category? Am I being overly sensitive about the topic?


I dated a girl that began being like that. Complain for 2 hours about how horrible her day every single day then finally stop and start playing on Facebook. Not even ask about my day.

I don’t date her anymore.

Nothing to be convinced about. This is the truth. Most people like to talk about themselves. Salesmanship 101 teaches the quickest way to get someone to like you and open up is to ask them questions about themselves. I've learned to actually listen to what they are saying, put it in my notes, and bring it up at a later time. It can be simple stuff like seeing someone I haven't seen in a while and asking about Juniors football team and recalling the small detail of the team name or asking a Mom about her kids. That person will be your ally from then on out.

I'm kinda the opposite, I don't like to talk much about my personal life to people I don't know well so I fall back on asking them questions.

As for friends I will talk about life and ask them questions but we usually transition to talking about subjects we mutually like.

We have an understanding.

They never ask questions and I never accuse them of working for the DEA.

We have a group that only shares certian things with certian people in our group...it's nothing personal but its mostly about advice or private shite....we dont blurt out embarrsining shite or peronal stuff in front of everyone.

If they want you to know something they will let you know....and vice versa....if you ask them a question and they are vague or dont wanna answer then you have to respect that.

Like I said..the older you get the smaller your circle gets, not to mention people have skeletons that they only trust certain people knowing about......

Meet a buddy for a beer and we spend the entire time talking about his work and other non-weagle topics. Even though I am doing some cool stuff.
100% honest here, I'm just satisfied these days when I meet up with friends and family and they don't start talking about politics. They can drone on about their dumb Disney vacation for an hour and I'm just satisfied they didn't start yammering about whatever the topic of the day is on the cable networks.

That’s bc everybody has their own fricking issues worries and problems


I don’t think it’s a matter not caring.

What kind of womanly shite, indeed.

Look, if you have something to volunteer to your friend, do it. Don't look for them to coax it out of you, to play or flatter or cajole it from you. Just say the shite on your mind.

Something has to be responsible for the drops in testosterone that lead to shite like this being posted.

Is it a sentimental contest to wait to be asked? Just jump right in the conversation if you want.
