I really do! I have no idea what to do when I have do small talk! The self help articles make sense, but its not for me! I can only talk sense, and not small!
Why don’t I like it? Well…
- It doesn’t make any sense
- Specially when you are talking to someone you know for a while, and all you two can do is small talk! I’d rather waste my time somewhere else
- Its usually meaningless
- It doesn’t tell me anything about the person I am talking to, or anything about me to the person I am trying to talk to
- Its more like an obligation, than a connection
- Not that every conversation needs to have a connection, but in my opinion there should be something less shallow in a conversation
- I feel awkward in small talk
- I don’t know when or how to finish small talk and move on
- There is too much of silence when I practice small talk
- I SUCK at small talk, but that’s obviously already very clear
and this also makes me realise that I love conversations.. Conversations that can talk hours, and days and weeks! and you can then pause, and begin where you left! and I am just thankful that I have friends who I can get into conversations with!
