Other people can't talk to me
I've always been worried about not being able to expand my conversation with my partner.
They are people who can't stand silence, so they often talk from me, but the conversation doesn't continue at all. I'm careful about my facial expressions and tone, and I think I'm talking to various people about various topics, but I feel that my partner rarely talks to me. Of course, there are times when people talk to me about work matters, but they don't ask me personal things like small talk.
If you think about it, from a long time ago, people at school or at my previous workplace even invited me to “meet up” or “let's have a meal,” etc., but the other person rarely said it, my side also tended to hold back, and there were many cases where relationships broke down.
I think it's my fault because I can't tell interesting stories, and I think there's nothing I can do about it because my personality doesn't match, and eventually I stop being actively involved and go out with others with a sense of distance. However, when it comes to the company, they are at an age called mid-level, and many young juniors come in, and I don't think they want to be seniors who shut up and find it hard to hear things.
Is there any room for me to improve? Or does it mean that there's nothing you can do about it anymore because it's innate? Please give us your feedback.
