Goodbye
I am pretty good at getting out of a conversation. I have a full list of methods to slide out once I think it's time to move on. For fear of being the person who traps the other, I will err on the side of too soon.
But I realize this limits my ability to go deep with someone. To go behind the simple smallchat and break the ice towards something new.
I wonder what will be in store as I give more time before the escape.
