I feel like I'm making good progress in this area. I had a FB chat with my ex's sister last night. Now she and I got off on the wrong foot when we first met. We didn't get along until some time after the ex and I broke up. Anyway we were chatting and she complimented that I was "much better than Joey," a long time friend of hers and an acquaintance of mine. This caught me by surprise because Joey is a pretty decent guy and she and I barely talk or hang out.
Per the listening part. I totally agree with that. But it's so damn hard to do. Even when I shut up and let the other person talk, I still don't catch every thing they say or know the proper reply to what they're saying. Any tips on this?
