RE: Ulog #3 - My most unusual talent - and why phrasing matters

in #ulog6 years ago

This is why I am great communicating with kids and most animals, but suck at talking with most adults!

Why?

Because with most adults, it's NOT a dialogue.

It's a "collective monologue" where no real listening takes place and each person is simply buying time until they can speak AT the other one!

Enjoyed your post immensely.

Namaste, Jaichai

Sort:  

collective monologue

My favorite is when someone will accidentally start talking, stop, then later when it is actually their turn they start the same way. They were just holding in whatever they wanted to talk about!

I am officially through the prologue of Origin, taking the book camping this weekend, thanks for the recommendation!
