> I actually like that but find it annoying that very few people actually want to dig in to any depth and talk about the flows of their emotional journeys, their core intellectual advanced, the things that they've learned, or instructive errors that they've made so that we gain wisdom from the conversation. I'd enjoy doing that with people I work with, but I don't think they'd appreciate me asking. Perhaps as a result I come off as one of those people that doesn't want to dig in to any depth about the kinds of life aspects you listed. But I'm optimising for getting along at work without coming across as intrusive and probing. I don't want to make people uncomfortable by showing too much interest in their personal lives and excitements, if they aren't volunteering it. There are definitely people who want their work life to remain very separate from the rest of their life. If I'm doing that, willing to engage in deep conversations about wider aspects of life but optimising to not be intrusive at work, perhaps some of the other people in your work circle are also doing so.
