Devious is the name of the game
I have this habit of changing topics whenever people talk of things that I’m not interested in. For example, when so and so talk about his or her family, I tend to pt in a joke or talk about something else even if so and so is in the middle of talking. Mind you, I’m pretty good at creating diversion unless the so and so ploughs on with his story and then I plough on with mine.
People could figure out what I was trying to do back then. Now that I’m getting better at it, it’s hard for them to realise what I’m up to unless they stop their own chatter and observe the flow of the talk. As nobody listens to everybody, this behaviour of mine can go undetected.
