I always grow quite find of people I'm able to sit and have a real conversation with. Not the generic "oh, what do you like to do?" Etc , nor do I enjoy being around people who always find a way to talk about themselves. I like those that can teach me something new, no matter how small or minor it is. A person who will ask my opinion on a subject, or will give their views on a current event. Someone who can just talk and talk without it resorting to THEM, unless they have a quirky little story involving them related to the subject.

I will just completely zone out the minute I hear someone starting to talk about themselves over and over, and I'll remain quiet. I can't help it...I just need better mind stimulation.
