Shallow Talks & Shopping

I am not sure yet if I like conversations or hate them. I think I am an introvert but I can be an extrovert under certain circumstances so I guess I could assume I am a ambivert of some sort.

But the one thing that always bores me is shallow conversations. I did not understand how people can talk on and on about owning a certain items and explaining in minute detail their process of obtaining the item. I have had some people talk about the nail art they got done for over an hour. I mean I get that someone who enjoys such talk would really appreciate it.

When I try to categorize what topics fall under “shallow” I realized that the list I come up with is specific to me. I may be about things that I do not understand completely which in turn bores me out.

Shopping also bores me. Especially when I have to do it for myself. I prefer my shopping escapades not to last more than 1-2 hours. After that I just give up and say next time and leave the store.

I feel the more options I see the more I get confused. I don’t like being confused. I predetermine what I need from a store. And focus on buying just that. If I still have any energy left I look to buy something else.

So to summarize, I think I get bored when conversations go too long and shopping spree causes pain to my feet! 🙂
