Some people like to take over the convo and talk their azz off (aka Me) while others like to sit back and listen and observe. I want to date someone who keeps the convo rolling with me. I dont really want us to be fighting for the last word lol but i do prefer we provide eachother with lots of commentary and feedback. Its weird. Like i prefer to date a loner yet i want them to be a loner whos very talkative when in their comfort zone. #FeelFreeToList#TalkThatTalk#ListenAndLearn#StopAndStare talker or a listener

Are you more of a talker or a listener AND what would you prefer your partner be?
I am more of a listener but if they are like a chatterbox, i will be too because we both have a lot of things to say apart from listening. and I know listening is boring and if you say something and when i listen, it would be awkward. so i try my best to be like a chatterbox. and i am kind of a loner apart from my job time. So i will have time to talk to my dear ones even if that is you.
I'm a little of both. But I would say a talker would be good as long as there was a reason for talking like a conversation but talking for the sake of venting or just wanting to talk can get tiring after a while but I want back and forth between us not just one way
I'm both. I'm a great listener. I'm also a patient listener. I don't need to have the "chair" all the time. I take in everything someone says to me, but i always like to talk too.
I prefer to be with a guy that is both as well. I'd hate to be with someone that wouldn't talk to me, and with someone that never shut up. There has to be a balance
My partner is very much more a listener sure when you get him on something he's passionate about he will talk your ear off but in general, together he's a listener and I become more of a talker. In other situations, I'm just a plain old listener. I think that I do prefer listeners because talkers kinda get on my nerves 🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha yes guys always said i talk to much but that they were listeners anyway so they enjoyed how i kept topics interesting. However i get annoyed when i ask them to start a topic and they say “i just wanna listen”. Its more of a dealbreaker for me these days
I prefer both. You make absolute sense because usually when the quiet are comfortable with you, they don't mind talking a lot. In my experience at least. Listening, like really listening- you get to notice the small yet unique things about them. Talking, you're able to voice your thoughts and then discuss either some type of common ground or just add to each other.
I try to be balanced and generally I am, but I do have a tendency to lean over to too much of a talker at times. I'll catch myself doing too much of the talking without realizing it and shut up so that they can speak. :P
Im a Listener, I love to listen especially when Im interested in that person. But I also dont mind talking and giving off my opinion to the current conversation topic etc.
I'm not sure which way to vote. Because I like to talk, but only about some things. About others, I prefer that we both are engaged and have lots of dialogue. Then if the other person is dealing with something, I prefer to listen.
I very much enjoy discussion so I would not appreciate being the only one talking. I'd feel as if what i said wasn't being taken seriously if they did not chime in.
I love the fact that she just prattles on, and I can listen. As long as there is nothing else going on, a tv or radio bothers me, because I have problems splitting my attention either listen to the media or talk, don't try and do both, because I can't follow either, I just get snippets of both that make no sense. But I am generally quiet myself.
I let her know that it's hatd for me. And if you ask "did you hear what I said?" My answer would be "no, can we turn off the radio, if you want to talk?"
I prefer a balance of both, since I’m that way. I like speaking and being social, so I wouldn’t be classified as a listener predominantly, but I can in fact listen attentively. I like an exchange of thoughts, with one person talking and the other listening until the roles are reversed.
Overall, I'm more so of a listener than I am a talker. I'm the one who my friend go to when they care to rant or want an outsider's perspective on certain situations. However when I'm completely comfortable with someone, I can be a chatter box, and spew my thoughts and my emotions to my closest friends and my boyfriend.
I would say that my boyfriend and I are pretty equal in lending an ear and being very communicative.
Good conversation skills, at least in my humble opinion means being good at both. I am ok either way, depends on my mood and the topic. Sometimes I lead and do most of the talking, sometimes people just want someone to listen, and I'm usually happy to do that as well. I think the important thing is to be engaged, use gestures, eye contact, etc.
I’m both I listen and talk a lot 😂 I’ve been bitched over by my FrIeNdS that I be like a bee 😂 I’d rather be with someone who likes buzzing as well like if she’s all quiet or dry then it’s no good I don’t wanna be with a zombie that just says “nah, Yee, haha, bleh, Cyka, könig” etc
Lol I would give a fuck But generally just cause I'm more a listener doesn't mean I can't speak or communicate well, I'm good at both but tend to be more the other
i'm more of a listener, i prefer listening to people's problems and coming up with solutions based on my personal experiences in the matter. Proposing a different perspective and trying to stay as neutral as possible
Then they would leave me. I always been like that even with my parents / sister, etc.. I can't do anything about it. If we aren't compatible it's better to break up rather than having a huge fight and lots of resentment years after. My parents aren't compatible at all but they still stay together, they fight a lot and my mother have a tons of resentment towards my father so I want to avoid that. It's a really unhealthy situation. The longer you stay with a person the harder is it to get away / break up.
Not for a while, I changed my shifts to Morning shifts so was never awake at what would be considered a US reasonable hour, starting to work a few later shifts now, so am popping up later than usual for the first time in 6 months
What if your partner said they’d leave if you didn't communicate better? And you should get back on rabbit. I enjoyed talking with you last summer on the site
I'm a good communicator I always let them know my problems. I'm good one on one it's just in groups I'd rather listen, if they were gonna leave me for that I would let them for because it's trivial to me. I still got it I'm down sometime haha
I communicate if I have an issue and try to solve our issues together. I don’t talk that much on dates or spending time together. It’s hard for me to attempt to be talkative because I feel like it sounds forced. I do respond back to what he says and tell him about my day briefly
Well I do consider myself a very good communicator. I think a good communicator is someone who is also a good listener. But to answer your question. I would be very open to discussing what I can do to better communicate with her.
If she wants to leave me just for the sake of little communication I'd happily let her go.. If she tells me politely that we need to have better communication then I'd put my efforts to win her heart.
