I don't know how good this holds up, but: I noticed that in conversations I tend to barge out questions like an inquisitor, while some of my friends are more like story tellers. Some, I can't really talk with, and when we get together, it's more like 'just chilling out'.
I was wondering a, if people tend to fall into some category more than others b, if there are more such categories c, if overemphasis on one behavior is a significant factor of mine, (and presumably others') social skill deficit
If the last is true, I would like to diversify this portfolio..
Is there some kind of psychological theory I should be aware of?
In my search for underutilized venues, where should I go?
Where could I find a large corpus of people having real conversations, preferably followed over a long term?
Conversation is a bit of a chaotic act. People sometimes cling to the act of small talk. Seems like you've done without that. Why frantically skate back to the norm? Are you afraid? Rewrite the rules, be a leader, be the inquisitor.
