a good conversation

[Batch]

been ever so long since one was had in person...

drown was the last

and that was several years ago.

a good meat and potatoes talk...
that ranges over several hours.

do you get to have long conversations in person anymore?

 

[Wings27]

I do, not with anyone from Lit, lately but I'm well known for having hours-long conversations about any and everything. I love learning from people and I find that listening is the best way to do that.

I do adore a great conversation.

do you feel a deep satisfaction?

like all is right with the world? at least for that time period?

I think I usually feel satisfaction in the fact that I was heard, it's not a feeling I have a lot.

Plus the connection that you make by sharing thoughts and energy with another person, a friend, is great.

I've been awful lonesome lately. Right now, I think I would take good conversation to good sex any day. I love getting to know people...it's one of my passions in life. I love trading experiences and feelings and stories and ideas. My favorite is to sit up talking through the night, either in the dark or by candle light. Just hour upon hour of learning who someone really is, what they want out of life, what influences or situations have shaped their existence. Someone who can give good conversation...*sigh*

I am so freaking shy in person that its hard for me to talk.

I would be around people who would have conversation just for argument sake!!!

Ugh. I disliked that so. So much that I hardly joined in and then eventually am no longer apart of those friends.

I love conversations wherein you can talk, be heard and listen to what others are saying and get something good out of it. When you actually get excited from learning something or giving a person a knowledge they hadn't had prior to that conversation.

I have that with my sisters. We have such wonderful conversations that when I have to leave, my heart weeps.

Pretty much daily. I have many great friends who I see one or more of everyday. Guess I'm damn lucky.

Conversations with others in person would be nice. Unfortunately I do not really get that any more. I am home 24/7 taking care of the house while kids are gone then taking care of kids/ homework when they get home. When my husband gets home he is still preoccupide with his firewood business or talking with his parents. I just get up clear the table, do the dishes, get kids ready for bed etc make sure homework is correct. When my husband finally comes down stairs to talk to me, its usually asking for a blow job.

You can imagine how well that goes over. I am beat and tired by then and just want to go to sleep. Sex is nothing to me right now. I long for a converstation even if its about whats your favorite M&M color.

I told my husband a few years ago, that I was more alone now married then I had been before we met. He just didn't get it. I some how got put on the back burning with the kids

I miss my friends, hell I don't really have any anymore. My one friend whom I hung out with all the time doesn't call me any more. I suspect its because my husband and her text each other. His not so innocent in meaning, as hers is. I think guilt keeps her away.

I really don't understand why people who are fucking miserable in their marriages STAY married. And don't say "for the kids" or "I can't afford it"...your kids are gonna be happier with a happy, fulfilled mother who is working hard and happy, than a self-pitying martyr.

it's been more than a day. at least.

*suffers*

I think I'm lucky.

I've got a group of friends, neerdowells and rascals mainly, who read lots and do lots and participate in life lots, and we talk all the time. Sometimes over long dinners. Sometimes at a bar. Sometimes just doing stuff together.

I went through a really shitty period of life, and they helped me wander out of it. Patient fuckers, they were.

lol.

Oh, I paid attention to you in my "it's Friday and the fucking weekend is here" music thread.

I noticed. I'm glad I can hear at least half of the songs on my phone. YouTube need to catch up with the times.

sadly, the last good conversation i had was with my nineteen year old niece and it covered weed, acid, how awesome her philosophy course was and the fact that she's thinking of dropping out of college already because she wants to go to california. she's a smart kid, but she's also nineteen which pretty much makes her an idiot.

and that's about all i have to say.

 

[Angeline]

I hadn't lived in the south since I was a very little kid and I'm pleased to recall that folks here are friendly and love to chat. I mostly have deep, satisfying convo with my partner and my kids, but I love the random smalltalk I pick up in town and shops. I love getting glimmers of strangers' stories. It appeals to the writer in me.

eavesdropping is goodness. it's also easier than it used to be thanks to the invention of cellphones.
