The Hidden Rules of Conversation
Date: 2020-05-05 02:08 pm (UTC)Conversations to show goodwill, to reaffirm connections, to induce one or other or both of the speakers to do specific things, to perform for an external party, to reaffirm a particular situation, to make a particular impression on one of the participants...all operate under different assumptions and rules. A lot of confusion occurs simply because two people may have entirely different ideas about what kind of conversation they're having.
