Small talk is unavoidable. Usually people deal with it to be polite. How do you deal with being bored to tears by a conversation?
I am extrovert, so I love talking. However, inane banter chafes me. Especially, when someone deems it necessary to talk to me about absolutely nothing. As I have said before, I watch my weight and try live a healthy life. I don't obsess about it. That being said, when someone scrutinizes food and tries to put me in the conversation, it is beyond irritating. I once was in a conversation about mall walking for 5 minutes. Can you say Zsa Zsa Gaboring?
I like children, though I don't want any. That being said, I don't want to spend 15 minutes discussing new developments of your toddler. I am 29 and single, there are better things I could be talking about.
As the song goes, everybody talks. If your words don't amount to anything, it's just hot air. If you have the urge to make meaningless small talk with someone, do both of you a favor: don't.
