Yea, I sort of just adopted this strategy as a quiet person, but I found out that I couldn't hang out with other people who used this strategy too, because neither of us would be big talkers and were used to participating in at most 20% of the conversation. So now I just make friends with more talkative folks, some of whom border on narcissism. It's alright though, they tend to be interesting.
- guycastell 10y agoI've been told that I'm borderline narcissist. That said, I have about the same amount of friends who aren't very talkative and mostly keep to themselves (with those friends I can have very intelligent conversations with) as I have those who are pretty much like me, with whom I can talk about really anything.
- specializeded 10y agoFor sure keep the talkative ones around, they rub off. You might notice you naturally take the "lead" in convos with people like you as time goes on :)
