Talking is overwhelming

Hi all

do you find that 90% of conversations are pointless?

Especially social chit chat. I find it so exhausting. If I could go into a workplace where people could be calm and chilled and not feel the need to make conversation or impress, I think I’d enjoy that. I just feel the need to ‘perform’ quite a bit. I’m a pretty contented person really and don’t need to babble endlessly! Anyone relate?

  • I totally get this. It's one of the reasons I became self employed and work on my own most of the time. Even at home though my partner wants to go out and meet "friends" and I just don't get it. I usually come home thinking of all the things I could have got done in the garden rather than taking absolute nonsense!

    Obviously I'm talking about pre Covid restrictions time!!!
