Passion for something. Itβ²s such a turnoff when you are talking to somebody and they aren't interested in anything.
Current events? Meh. Books? Meh. Films/Shows? Meh.
I don't care if it's stamp collecting or chewing gum flavors or the history of wallpaper design, just be passionate or interested in something. At least we can converse for while on that topic.
Adlib examples for pretending to have a personality, perfect for the passionless husk of a human soul in your life!
Hey hey hey listen listen listen. Let ME, tell YOU, about the wonders of [[ psyllium husk supplements ]]. THIS SHIT!? IT IS SO FREAKING [[ full of fiber ]] AND JUST THE MOST AMAZINGLY [[ potentially constipation inducing ]] thing ever. So pretty much everybody knows that [[ psyllium husk supplements ]] is good for [[ the gut microbiome ]] right? But what most people DON'T know is that [[ quality varies between brands ]] and that [[ you should research brand quality ]]. Isn't that just just freaking great!?
Lol! Everything in moderation I suppose. But at least if I had that interaction with somebody, I would have an interesting story to tell people haha.
Iβm actually pretty enthusiastic about psyllium husk supplements so you have my attention!
