  do u all feel that the older you get
  the harder it is to 'chit chat' on the phone?
  and the more irritating when people you dont feel like chit chatting to, calls at a time you dont feel like chit chat...
  
  call u and talk in chit chat tone?

  we were going for lunch.. someone from another floor came into the lift..
  
  one of the guys grunted.. the other guy grunted back... and after a series of grunts, we came to the ground floor and parted ways...
  
  thing was, we understood everything
  
  *grunt* hey man

  that may be the factor of couple breaking up and failed marriage.
  
  both got older, "grunting" and not communicating, lose interest, lost confidence ,lost trust, then DRIFT APART then go apart,, just leave each other, let that, no more words.....

  I agree. I can chit chat with my close friends anytime..
  
  but to make small talk with people I don't know... depends on my mood at that time la..

  ya.. and its doubly difficult if the person PERSIST in making small talk
  instead of just getting to the point...
  
  why issit considered rude to just get to the point? Very considerate what.

  my teachers used to tell my parents : your daughter very talkative !!
  it reflects in my report book every year without failed...
  
  it's just in me, I am trying to be a quiet lady still.....
  
  I can talk to anyone new familar or close friends..everyone...and sometimes I just gave the wrong impressions ...being too nice doesnt mean that I am interested. it's purely friendship...
  
  when i find someone interesting, I shy away...
  
  chiam rite...
