Must be a close friend, but if he or she is coming over then yeah I agree, sometimes I don't say a word for a long time, however, if I don't know them then, of course they wouldn't be in my home, however I will say something, to acknowledge that we are sharing the same space. I've gotten to the point where I don't have to be chatty, but the very least I will do to an unknown sharing the same will give a nod or, if it is a chick, a smile... that acknowledges their presence.scooter22 said:Here's a difference between now and 20 years ago: My friend might come over and I won't say a word for an hour if I have nothing to say.... Back then, I felt I had to be entertaining so I said a lot of stupid shit along with doing some dumb things as well.... Live and learn.
