By nature, I am an anti-social recluse, but I am usually pursued by at least 5 people. A couple of girls at my office, my SO, my sons, my neighbor.
I prefer short pointless conversations, like the ones at the bank, because I don’t have time for, nor do I want, extended ones. I do enjoy equally weighted banter between two engaged parties, But have found that if I give an inch to someone socially, they usually hold me hostage for 45 minutes. Listening is a lost art. I feel like the ball often gets stuck in the court of my opponents, who have no intention of hitting it back.

I like clean communication that is devoid of lengthy explanations. Cut to the chase. Get to the point. Answer my question- DONE.

On the phone; my sister everyday. Online, 5 peeps.

I only want to talk to people I learn things from. If you can’t teach me, I ain’t interested-but I will smile and nod until I doze off.
