I Enjoy Meaningful Conversations


That is what has shaped you into who you are and that is the only to truly know a person. This is the you I want to know.

I want that too, but not at first meeting. Geez.

Why not? Why waste time with trivial small talk? Find out right from the start who a person really is and what better place to start than with their wounds and scars?

@diablesse: I would never introduce myself to a new acquaintance by telling them of all my past pain and heartbreak. First, why do I want to sound like a whiner? Second, if you don't know them at all, how can you be sure they wouldn't use that information against you, or just find you not worth the effort. Third, it's none of their business until we are closer to friends than strangers.

Probably not to a new acquaintance, but on those rare occasions when you simply click with someone and you instinctively know that the real you is safe with that person. I have done it on a very rare few occasions and in return I have been blessed with the most meaningful friendships in my life.
