I pretty much can't.

Yesterday I rode in a car for an hour and a half with two men in their 70s, and I'm pretty sure they were glad when we arrived, because it meant I wasn't 'to going to talk to them about anything else. I tried not being the one to start the next conversation but then neither of them said anything and I would think of other things to ask them about so I just kept starting back up again.

I think maybe men are happy not to talk a lot of the time, on car trips.

When someone isn't talking much it's because they don't want to talk so much, if at all. But it doesn't work because the other person talks lots and lots to make up for that person not saying much.

My mum and dad do this, i.e. she talks a lot, very often dominating conversation more than 90% of the time, and dad is rather quiet.

Car trips are kind of interesting settings for conversations. I sometimes find that it's easier to talk about heavier stuff that is bothering one or both of us because we're not facing each other and you can't eject yourself from the conversation once you're in it.

Thing is as much as i cant shut up and write too much on the interwebs, in real life i'm generally eerily quiet. Mainly cause i'm not comfortable around people though. Only about 1 out of 10 people i ever get comfortable enough around to talk a lot. An if in a social situation that has more than like 3 people i'm probably not talking. There's people i've known for years i still can't really talk to.

Learning to be okay with silence is a goal of mine. I am good at not just filling the air when there's nothing to talk about or the other person is also being quiet, but it still is awkward.
