[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you aren’t a skilled enough conversationalist to the point where you must wait like a child actor listening for a cue to volunteer information about yourself or steer a conversation, I don’t think we can help you. [/quote]

Nope. Really skilled conversionalists understand give and take and do give openings for other people to share their experiences and thoughts. They don't just drone on and on about themselves. [/quote]

OK, well…OP finds herself in a neighborhood where this is the norm. She can either sulk and expect things to magically change, or she can simply adapt and instead of wah-wah-ing and acting like a wallflower, jump in and volunteer more information about herself and steer the conversation. She can engineer things a little bit rather than whining on the sidelines. [/quote]

You’re part of the problem.  Affirming a person’s experience is part of human connection.  FAIL but thanks for playing.  [/quote]

OK, enjoy your same, never-ending dynamic! :) [/quote]

Ha ha I will just not hang around people like that and im assuming you. Instead I will find conversation with people who talk WITH me not AT me.[/quote]

Good, mission accomplished. The one time I asked you a question, you monologued a never-ending paragraph (like the OP) with me, and I knew instantly you were one of THOSE people, and I was hoping to gently nudge you away from me. Success![/quote]

Oh. You're 12. Got it.[/quote]
