I'm like that too. I can't bear awkward silences and babble for England but ........I am quite shy.

 

 

Actually - I'm not sure if I am anymore ......I used to be but I'm not so bad as I was.

You're not shy but you can babble with the best of us! 

Xochi

I can be quiet at times and it's possible it's been mistaken for shyness as sometimes I wonder if they can come across as the same, not sure about that  I'm not quiet though when with friends, I enjoy conversations that cover many subjects - I think women are best at that from my experience, they can easily hop from one subject to another

I am not for one minute going to challenge your assertion, but when I read your post I immediately thought "I wish YR could eavesdrop on they type of conversations me and my friends have when we meet". Our conversations also bounce around like a pass the parcel full of excrement.

That's good to hear EC my experience of men's conversations is that they seem to revolve around sport, pubs and cars lol

No cars, no pub talk.

 

A bit of sports but mainly film, music, the arts, girls, work, a bit of family and our aspirations.

There can sometimes be one in a group who enjoys being at the centre lol, it's better if the group all has something in common with the others and has a chance to get a word in lol
