Do you prefer changing conversation topics every couple of minutes, or do you prefer to reflect and talk about the same thing for several minutes?

[Bethany22]

Does the same conversation topic bore you quickly, and you find yourself switching topics quickly and using other people in your social environment as excuses to talk about something else, or do you prefer to reflect and talk for at least 10 minutes about the same topic?

I prefer changing topics quickly

I prefer lingering on the same topic and going into depth

You kinda gotta go with the flow of the conversation go where it leads, and stopping to reflect on what was said would be rude to the others in the conversation
"Ecuse me but im going to hit the pulse button on this conversation and meditate and reflect on what we just said please sit quietly until I am through so we can continue the conversation"
Seems rude to me

I don't like it when someone jumps in the middle when I'm talking and switches the subject entirely is extremely rude and disrespectful.

[SpokenTruth]

Thanks for MHO!

I prefer in depth conversations.
It bugs me when people change the subject in mid conversation. And interrupting is the rudest thing of all. When that happens, I often remember that I have something that I have do and I leave.

I am not very good at starting conversations. However, if a conversation by the other person then depending on the subject of conversation I am fine with talking about it for several minutes.

However, if the topic is not good then I would end it immediately.

Where is the conversation when you jump from one topic to the other constantly? It's more like opening your mouth and closing it considering what has been produced and manifested by it in total as result of your actions during the time of talking. Might be fun to do some gymnastics like that for some people, but it's not really my type of entertainment :D

[Paul_in_Indy]

Several minutes? We haven’t even defined our terms in several minutes. We haven’t stated the proposition, yet! A conversation requires hours, not minutes!

[clampfan101]

I’m not sure as I don’t talk much in general and am bad at starting conversations. I’m typically fine with the person I’m trying to talk to doing either for me, though.

[ArrowheadSW]

I know people who change what they are talking about every 5-6 seconds. You can't follow what they are saying. Maybe every 2-3 minutes is OK unless it is something that needs to be discussed at length.

[Emiliamazing]

I think it depends on your company/friend group. If there are new and exciting stories to tell or information to exchange about a particular topic, it's a source of bonding.

[Oddquestiona96]

I like to reflect and dive deep if I'm with friends. Also having non serious dumb debates can be fun

[Mansearching]

Conversations have to roll. If conversations change then its rolling. Its got to be a continuous thing. If you got to force the conversation (s) then you 2 have nothing in common.

[RavVid]

I like to talk and think on a topic at some depth.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I prefer lingering on the same topic and going into depth.

[NostalgiaSenpi]

Both. I prefer a tit fir tat conversation or switching to something else if it's not going anywhere.

[SunnyRS]

Depends on the topic to be honest, if it is something I can talk about I would.

[BrookeS]

Depends on the topic for me

[loveslongnails]

It depends on the moment.

[Iron_Man]

It depends how important the subject is

[Iron_Man]

Or something needs to be talked about

[PeterLegg91]

I like both tbh

[LavLavLuv]

I’m usually B
