I like hearing about someone's relationship with their dad. It's fascinating. Good stuff.
But you get that stuff daily. So I can see why for you, it would be a drag.

Ouch.
That feels almost insulting-maybe you did not mean it that way.
I love connecting personally emotionally with people but yes, I did draw the line at hearing for 20 minutes straight about the girlfriend that used IV heroin in the bathroom and how she had to call paramedics when she found her dead and how she did not understand that she never saw all the track marks until the open casket funeral...
Just a really out there example but I make no apologies for wanting a little more "fluffy" until, oh, maybe the second meeting.
Healthy emotional boundaries are important to me.
