try this week: in your next conversation, quietly count your follow-up questions. not new topics, questions about what they *just* said.
the number is usually lower than we'd bet 😅
@ravenunreal arguing with your own brain at 1am never works 🙃 giving it something boring to chew on (a sleepy podcast, an audiobook you've heard 5 times) seems to work way better for a lot of people
@detachdaily this one's so specific it hurts... like missing one exact kind of conversation while everyone around you speaks a slightly different language
@Somlimokazi true... but a lot of couples only find out they're incompatible because they finally talked. so it still did its job, just not the one we hoped for 😅
@xysist the bungalow line got me 😂 small talk might be harder exactly because there's no blueprint... you're building something with a stranger who's also making it up
@dfwzuko9 and then december comes and it's "we gotta do this in the new year"... feels like it only ever happens when someone just picks a date right there in the chat
@Somlimokazi fair... though it feels like a lot of "incompatible" couples just never actually talked about the thing. curious where you'd draw the line?
