So often we try to predict what they have to say. The worst are the finishers, those people who finish your sentence like if I am talking to you now and you were a finisher, you'd be . . . . Sometimes finishers are right. I like to trip them up. Not always possible. We all like to feel a connectedness. I like to add observations and experiences of my own that confirm what the person has to say even when I don't agree with them at all. As you can imagine, this leads to all kinds of misinterpretations. Everyone's my friend because I never contradict them which probably comes from my upbringing. My mother never liked to be contradicted so even when she was saying things about me or my friends that I found abhor ant, I would just listen.
