I've noticed that human thend to do this during the course of comunication:
When someone brings out a subject, of any type, a dream , an experience, something you learn etc,
the other party tends to jump out inmediatly and say something similar or BETTER than the other person.
I believe everyone does this to a certain extent, but once you realize it, it makes it really annoying when it comes to conversation, and without even knowing you create a defense system against these people and you shut down and either: 1. Ignore and space out 2. Never tell this person anything remotly important 3. you avoid the other person all together.
Now I've noticed with myself that when i identify a individual like this, and i mean a VERY significant of lack of comunication/listening skills, I space out... lol I mean I'm not driving now, so i can't really drive anywhere or say, yeah its getting late i really gotta go, or pretend that my cell phone goes off and all those old tricks.
Now I do hate it when i start censoring myself with people that are like this but in less amount, like it's really hard cause you know the other person will change the subject and completly ignore you.
So I was thinking about all this cause i'm moving to a new town, starting a new life (for a change), and yeah it will be different to deal with new people once more.
The funny thing with the internet is that it makes it SO much easier to ignore the annoying ones that can't listen to you, you just click ignore user or block, and its great!
Ok so this is kind of a mean entry, i pray to God for more patience, but sometimes it just seems easier to talk to the wall.
I want to find a group of intelligent ambicious women, or at least one that i can look up to, I think i really like an older workmate of mine, but yet again i'm gonna move and i'll need at least a year to trust in someone and really let them in to the point of respecting them and loving them enough to choose them as a mentor.
I do think that I tend to be annoying sometimes and that's when i completely enjoy my alone time. I get to pray ad hear my thoughts, and also listen to my audio books.
I love learning but looking at a screan all day and reading, and come home to read more it kinda heavy i'm gonna start listenin to audiobooks again in the dark with a candle and a glass of wine... i mean juice.. ha!
Ok love ya'll (must learn this word to minggle in the Tulsa crowd)
Cheers!
