yeah that's what i try to do...but somehow after the initial 'spark' things just stagnate.
for example i get to know someone who's into books and travelling, like i am...we get a good vibe going talking about books we like, places we've been to...but somehow i get a sense that the conversation's not GOING anywhere.
i don't know how to put this into words, but i get this 'stalling' feeling...like we're just talking about the stuff and once the 'topic' has run it's course it's back to square one.
