You know those conversations where you have to lead and carry for the entire talk? If this happens every time with the same person after a while do you question their interest in talking with you, or anyone for that matter? I do.
Every week I have a scheduled talk day with my love, it is very pro active and a great opportunity to just check in w each other. However I am always the one who has to lead and carry the whole deal do it feels rather one sided. I've expressed this and have been told "I don't really know how to do it if I'm not responding" to me this is verbally starfishing, he disagrees.
So I ask you my friends is it verbally starfishing if you come to a regularly scheduled talk with no questions, no curiosities, no agenda, no wishes, nothing but yourself and a willingness to respond?
I say yes, it definitely is conversational starfishing. Fun fact, when you made this blog post I was 13.
