Just say "may I say somethin'?" But most of the time I've tuned them out by then and don't even care. I'm just sick and fed.

I think I have the opposite modus operandi when I'm nervous. I ask questions and sometimes, that's just pistol they need to start the race....and a w a y wwweeee go !

So maybe it's my fault.

I'm just sayin', maybe I shouldn't ask "well, how was your day?"...ya know?

Some of you ladies can talk a blue streak ~ you seem to enjoy yourself ~ I can hang for a while ~ but I do loose interest ~ in groups especially.

One on one it's different or can be anyway ~ depends on what we are talking about. ~ There is tons of things to talk about without it all being predicated on me, myself and I.

Most people enjoy a person that is outwardly, light hearted, not so self -absorbed or strongly opinionated. ~ If someones comes across having strong , heart felt, rigid ideas about the world about them ~ to a total strange ~inside the 1st hour of meeting ~ that polorizes you early.

Your setting there thinking ~ Boy! I need to be careful what I say to this character. They've already got an additude and it's just the first hour into the evening. I darn not share this ~ or that ~ it's know telling how they will take what I say. They don't know my humor ~ I don't know theirs.

If we can't visit lightly and move forward without full and complete disclosures ~ I'm done! ~ the thruths that we all treasure and seek are not there for the simple asking. They must be romanced forward ~ exposed and shared on some common ground. The shared and enjoyed by both parties, with some smiles and laughs in between~ an occassional glance into the eyes and a gentle touch of a hand or where ever you darn.

It all need to fit and blend ~ together~ we enjoy each other. I dislike speaking about me and until I know you better, ~ I don't wish much detail about you. The best place to start a relationship in the "now" and whats happening in the "now" ~~ pleanty of time to learn about the past but let's enjoy the present first.

It works best that way ~ little talk and a little silence ~ and lot of laughing and sharing.

Guess we all been on frist dates ~ and that didn't happen ~dar

I'm gulity of what one of the posters said she didn't like eopel doing when she talked to them.the whole nodding of the head repeatedly or say"hmm" over and over, but i actually am LISTENING when i do those things, am i'm afraid to say anything before the person finishes because then the person will think i'm intterupting, so what should i do?


Interrupting someone isn't alway the wrong thing... particularly where someone
is just rambling on and on and on about themselves. While there is a place for
being courteous and polite, there's also a time to set limits and boundaries, particularly
if the person we're engage in conversation with is being rather impolite themselves
by too much monopolizing the talking. So if you sense your good nature is being
taken advantage off by someone who seemingly only just wants to yap about
themselves, then don't at all hesitate to keep yourself from too much being
victimized -- sometimes interrupting someone really is the right thing to do.
