Embarrassing conversations

NAS75725

What embarrassing conversations have you had? Do you ever get asked something, then get carried away chatting, changing the subject at least once, then have to ask "Sorry, what did you ask?"

  • Yes sometimes I find people talk to quickly and I’m still processing g the first part of the conversation and when you just in to share an opinion they are like we are talking about something else now, it’s a struggle I try not to get to engaged especially when there’s a group of people u have to pick ur moment

    Yes... by they time you have thought of a reply, they have already moved on to something else. Or you wait until there is a gap in the conversation to give your opinion but by the time there is a gap, it is no longer relevant. There is no point in trying at all if there is group of people. That makes me panic and I avoid it as I can not follow what is going on. I think everyone should take it turns to speak, not have multiple conversations taking place simultaneously.
