I don't think the issue is a lack of interest. Is there something that I'm missing with my friendship with Alice or am I worrying too much? But in another friendship, me and a different person asking questions about each other or showing mutual interest in each others' things means "care". How can I encourage her to initiate conversations and ask questions back?įrom what I understand, you go from acquaintances to friends when both parties care about each other, and she has said that I am her good friend and that she trusts me. Does her behaviour "mean" anything like, am I doing something wrong, is this warning of a deeper problem, or is this normal? My social skills aren't great so I'm trying to learn what different cues mean. I'll say I've been to X, Y and Z, she says she's been to A, B, and C, and to keep the conversation going I'll ask her questions about the places she visited or where else she'd like to travel to, but she doesn't ask me about the places I've been to or any other questions unless I start talking about them first. She doesn't sound uninterested or bothered by my questions.įor example, we might be talking about holidays we've been on.
I've begun to feel like I'm always the one who has to initiate conversation, and when I'm talking to her, I'm usually the one asking questions (to keep the conversation going) which she answers earnestly. We get along well and share some interests and can talk about stuff for a while.
I have an online friend who I have been talking to for the past few months.
