The amount that someone talks and what they talk about can really reveal a lot about that person. If they talk excessively they either enjoy hearing their own voice, are not really interested in the other person or are trying to protect themselves by not allowing the conversation to get too deep. Talking too little often reveals a lack of self confidence or there could be a secret they don’t want to let out by accident or they have learned to consider what others have to say is more important. Talking too much about themselves can reveal a big ego. Talking too much about other people, sports, weather, cars etc can be a diversion from the real internal issues. More often than not a person who talks too much misses out on learning about the people and world around them which leads to making foolish decisions because they haven’t spent enough time listening.
