[quote=Anonymous]Are you a whiner? Do you complain a lot? Are you boring? Do you have any other character trait that would require another person to act as a buffer?

I do this to one of my friends. I would never tell her this but, the truth is she is really boring.

She's very nice and I wouldn't want to hurt her feelings. I would feel really guilty if I kept turning down her invitations. So I bring a second person for back up to keep the conversation going so I am not the only one talking all the time. To inject lighthearted conversation when she drifts too far down the road discussing how to save the poor little starving children in China or wherever. She also likes to talk about her spiritual journey, spiritual retreats and her spiritual energy and whatnot. I can do the whole metaphysical thing for an hour or two but not all evening.

At times, I have to focus on very serious things at work which might explain my aversion to doing it during my time off. Or maybe I'm just not a good friend. I don't know. I try to be. I honestly don't know how else to keep the friendship going and I know she doesn't have a ton of friends in this area, she's single and no kids so I think it's important to include her whenever I can.[/quote]
