Do you ask questions ?

Goodness is their anyone more boring than those who never ask questions .
Has anyone ever had one of those one sided conversations where the other person never asks anything thereby showing their complete disinterest in you/the subject /anything and only seem interested in themselves ?

It depends with whom I am having the conversation.

Re: Do you ask questions ?

What do you mean ?
In a social context or just everyday encounters ?

Re: Do you ask questions ?

Who, Why, Which, Where, When, How ?

Yes - I was one of those children who never stopped asking questions. Family legend has it that my first word was 'Why'.

Thankfully - I have grown out of the interrogation mode but still retain a polite interest in those around me - how else do you get to know someone?
People are a constant source of interest, nature is full of new and wonderful things to be learned, and life itself continues to amaze me!

Re: Do you ask questions ?

I ask questions when I am talking to my family or close acquaintances. I don't see many other people as I don't do social situations, if they can be avoided.

Re: Do you ask questions ?

i tend to avoid social situation now.
In my former life I had so many .
My main social contexts outside of my family are in the dog classes .
I go to flyball agility and dog training it's mainly for the dog he's very social !
