I find most NT conversation irrelevant or stupid

Post Reply New Topic

I can hang with the best of them, especially when it's a topic I'm interested in. I recently had one of my bosses refer to me as a Master of Conversation - as his chief complaint about my work is the occasional excessive talking, and my innate ability to get others talking to me.. I value his constructive criticism and strive to do a better job of STFU, but I also take it as a compliment and think that I can use these conversation skills to my advantage in future sales/business roles.

I LIKE talking about money or politics.. don't care about professional sports one iota, though. Athleticism & activity, yeah sure, but not pro team sports - boooooring.

Sometimes I engage in the typical NT convo's solely for the purpose of socializing and being "in," and it doesn't bother me one bit - because I want to be able to do it ever better, as I acknowledge that being able to do it well, when appropriate, is a part of the process to social, business & financial success. I just don't have much of anything to say about pop culture crap like the kardashians.. but neither do NT's who value their time & money. Spend some time around truly successful people and you'll see they transcend all of that time wasting crap. The only typically NT stuff they chat about that I couldn't care less about are professional sports.
