than to speak and be proven one."
The Dutch Dastard replied to lycan91's discussion The art of silence"Silence is often a good thing. On the other hand, there is hardly any conversation in which common sense can't make a good conversationist. If you feel you do not have enough information, you should ask specifically if someone can update you.…"

StaggerLee replied to lycan91's discussion Any advice on being alone"I'd suggest starting out by extending your casual conversations when possible. Not every exchange needs be a speech. For example increase the casual pleasantries with the grocer's clerk or the fast food server. Maybe throw in a titbit of…"
JonEdanger replied to lycan91's discussion Any advice on being alone"Hell, I struggle with that even at restaurants I frequent. Drives Mrs. Danger batty. Half the time I ask the server what he/she ate that night (or is going to eat) and just choose that."
lycan91 replied to lycan91's discussion Any advice on being alone"Well i have been thinking about this hardly for the last couple of days, but i guess it some kind of fear to be fully independent and not knowing which kind of options i got or which i should choose.
