born to infodump forced to constantly worry if the other person actually cares or if im making sense or if i said something wrong or if im embarrassing myself or if they want me to stop talking or
op (and anyone else who relates to this post) i know exactly how you feel but !!! i promise you’ll find people who love your infodumping unconditionally !!! for example last week i went camping and i met someone (who ended up like. spending the night with me. and the whole next day. and stuff. uh. anyway) and they actively wanted me to infodump !!! they went with me into the woods (my favourite place) and asked me questions like “can you show me your list of your 100 favourite birds” and “why do you like this bird so much in particular” and “please tell me more about your pigeon friends”. every time i started slowing down or worrying that i was yapping too much they would encourage me to keep talking. and now they keep messaging me and telling me we need to meet up again because they miss talking to me and “listening to live binya podcasts”. so please don’t give up on the things you love just because some people don’t appreciate your words !! even if you’ve been told you’re annoying your whole life, there are people out there who want to listen because it’s you. you are interesting to them, and therefore anything you talk about is interesting. don’t silence yourself <3
