Yappers vs Listeners

:thinking: Thoughts & Ideas

Do you guys have ideas on people who are yappers, and people who prefer or don’t prefer to be around them?

My superpower, and my biggest weakness, is the gift of gab,

I’ve met people who appreciate this, as they can forget the anxiety of filling in silences and rest assured I don’t care about silences and always have something to say.

I’ve met people who feel the opposite - like yappers don’t give them room to engage and feel heard. I have been around much of this type, and work to be accommodating.

Which are you - yapper, yapper lover, yapper hater- and what are your thoughts on my statement? Is it not this simple?
