I have started to realise how selfish people are becoming.
Is it just me or are people happy talking about themselves and what they have been up to, without asking you about things in your own life? By nature, I am honestly interested in other peoples lives. I'm genuinely interested in how old they are, do they have kids, how is their job going, how did they get their job, do they enjoy their job, where do they live etc etc. But I am starting to notice those same questions are not being directed back.
Now don't get me wrong, I don't ask questions with the intent of having them asked back but to me it indicates a sense of interest and thoughtfulness from the other party. Something as simple as someone sending you an email or a text message is an indication they are thinking about you, which is a fantastic feeling.
Is it not also polite to engage in some sort of conversation?!
I don't know, I may be way off with this, but it's just been an observation of mine recently. I will definitely keep up my investigative work and perhaps next time I do engage in conversation with someone, be it a friend or someone I've not met before, I will take note of how long it takes for two-way communication to take place!
