Why is the art of conversation lost on some people?

When I’m trying to get to know a new guy, it’s always me who ends up asking a lot of questions to get to know them. Yet there’s no back & forth where they ask me questions to get to know me. 🤷🏻‍♀️It’s a turn off, so future conversations rarely occur.

Im not here for romance, just friends....you'd think it would be easier...but i dont think it is. And its so sad that ive had close friends here...people i adored who are no longer here. Friend i spoke with for hours and hours a day...I in particular i still think of everyday.

@RubySoo Awww I’m sorry. It does hurt when they leave & don’t leave any contact information.

@RubySoo Yes, when they stop communicating & you don’t know why.

@marsbar There have been times hes told me we cant be friends.....and hes not been in touch for a while. But this time....all was fine between he and I.
The nature if our friendship meabs i worry about him when i dont hear from him.....but theres nothing at all i can do about it if he chooses not to contact me. 😔

@RubySoo Yes, that’s right. It’s out of your control at that point.
