CONVERSATIONAL MISTAKES

INTERRUPTION: Avoid coming in during a conversation this makes your partner wired, that what he or she is saying is less important making them to think that you don’t value their point of view and resulting into a shorter conversation.

CHANGING THINGS TO YOUR SIDE OF VIEW: Don’t change a conversation to your side of view, talk of your partner’s side of view as well. Talking of you constantly makes your partner thinks you are a proud person. (You might have no good reputation/value on your partner again).

BRAG: Don’t boast of yourself neither your wealth, your partner is not interested or concern in such things if the person is coming onto your life for real. Mostly meeting the person at first encounter may make him think less of you.

FORCING THINGS IN: Avoid bringing things in a conversation by force for instance: joke, teasing and more. Look at your partner’s mood or the environment around then drop a topic about it or say something both of you plan to meet and discuss of. Bringing things like that makes your partner have a different thought of you.

NO BREATHING SPACE: I know you have more to ask but ask less so as not to turn the conversation into an interview. Your partner will get bored and wants to leave.

AVOID CLOSE-ENDED ANSWERS: Responding in a conversation depends on how it may last or be short base on what you saying. Try to give answers that will make the person to keep asking more of your presence.

CHANGING TOPICS ABRUPTLY: If you do want to change a topic you need to answer your previous questions before making any changes and try to answer all questions or the person might think you are hiding something from him or her.

GHOST LISTENERS: During a conversation, master listening skills so as to avoid your partner getting upset by repeating one question often, for instance:

Where is your mother?

What?

Where is your mother?

Am sorry say that again

Where is your mother?

Ooh, she just went out.

Sometimes you might still give the wrong answer because you know in you that you have over asked too much.
