 Posted: Tue Jul 08, 2008 8:13 pm Post subject: "plot" of a conversation |
 |
|
Hi all, my first post to WrongPlanet. I have Aspergers, self-diagnosed. I am 18 years old, and currently work in Data Entry and as a Computer Technician.
Anyway, I was hoping someone could clarify something in Marc Segar's Survival Guide (I would post the link but the forum engine won't allow me to). The book says the most important thing to pay attention to in a conversation is the plot. Can this be explained any further? I do have the tendency to get stuck talking about something when the conversation should move on, and this seems like something vitally import I am missing. Thanks!!! |

I think it means (haven't seen it, so I'm just winging it here... that conversations lead, subject by subject, in unpredictable directions. You have to watch for when the subject at hand gets 'worn out', and people start relating (think hijacking a thread... from the original subject.
but that's just me... |
