Conversations/lack of

[evita]

Does anybody else wish that they had more conversations that had meaning with friends and or relatives? I really do.

you got one here. Lack of meaningful conversation is common i guess. Some people say that's a way to build a relationship, well... depends really.

Meaningful Conversations are like jewels to me. They happen very rarely- the ones that I remember I cherish forever. I like it when I can just talk for a person you just met for hours on end- and forget what time it is, I like the conversations that me and my grandma had outside on the porch, I like the conversations me and my parents have had- and them reaffirming me. They are all special...

But funny stupid conversations- are great too... they keep me happy. In my opinion, if every conversation was meaningful- this world would be meaningless...What a statement of irony.

I don't "lack" meaningful conversations, but I think I keep them as a special thing. Not that I am a total ditz with everyone else, but usually my "meaningful" and "thoughtful" conversations happen with certain people who mean something to me . If all my conversations were "meaningful" they wouldn't be what I would say "a diamond in the rough". People who get beyond my outer shell into who I really am get to see the side of me that isn't all just giggles and laughs... they get the girl who's able to string along thoughts into a "meaningful" conversation . I personally love to laugh and hear stupid jokes and have stupid funny conversations. Like super-dave said, they keep me happy too. I used to be a bit uptight and now that I've loosened up, I see what I had been missing and its nice to be able to laugh at anything and also at myself. I agree with this quote:

...if every conversation was meaningful- this world would be meaningless...What a statement of irony.

Thats very true.

Yeah this does make sense, but that's not what I'm trying to say...I mean I love meaningful conversations, but fun ones are great too...what I meant by the first post though is that sometimes I feel like everyone talks about the "important" part of their lives with others, and no one shares with me. Let me explain. I feel like I have an easy time becoming "friends" with people, as in more than just acquaintances, but not quite "deep" friends who share troubles and triumphs. It's not that I expect everybody to be open with me, or to have my friends ALWAYS speak about serious things, but it's just like I have known the girls who live in the dorm with me for a year and a half, and I cry to them when I'm stressed out, and ask them to pray for me when I'm making a big decision, but they don't come to me for help or in similar situations...they all have somebody else to do that with and for them. And THIS is what frustrates me.

Ohhhhh my bad. How open do they seem with you when you open up to them? I guess for me, I'm on campus right now, too and I don't open up to girls very well (bad experiences) and I guess with me, some girls have come to me and talked to me about "deeper" things but usually they end up as pieces of gossip. I don't like dealing with that sorta thing so I don't. Its not that I don't care when they do share with me, but as soon as it turns into a "she said/he said" type of thing, I don't care to participate in that. You can't make people open up to you and its frustrating when they don't... and it hurts too... but the only thing you can do is be you. I dunno if that helps to answer your initial question or not... or was I just babbling on? :o Either way, sorry you're in that situation.
