Watching a person’s eyes slowly glaze over while you talk but you’re in too deep and there’s no way to wrap it up quickly
I have had this experience in the strangest places. For example, I’ve been paid to talk to someone about their own business and have had this moment. I have had people do this for very surface level jargon (and I’m sure they didn’t need to understand) to tell a joke. I feel like I’m self conscious about this to a fault and it’s still a common occurrence.
No I mostly just don’t talk about anything that interests me anymore because of how poorly people treat me when I get too excited about it
That’s a big mood.
I still have to stop every so often to ask my partners if I’m annoying them when I let myself info dump. Luckily, they’re all just as ND as me, so they have no problem with it.
I’ve never had anyone like that in my life. Even online.
Often times I stop myself from even pursuing or thinking about my interests because it seems pointless to do everything devoid of the context of other people
Well, feel free to info dump to me, comrade! I love hearing people talk passionately about their interests, even if I know nothing about them!
Maybe I’ll take you up on that sometime
