Are you a good talker or a good listener?

hi, i am both, actually i speak too much, and as i listen to others, mainly i mingle with everybody, that's why i can manage this, i have seen many people how they behave and how they talk, i will observe them, and i learn from them also. thankyou, have a nice day.

Hi dear! Congratulations to you on reaching 2000 mark. Yes, you are right that they are many who love to speak and speak, in fact majority of people fall in this category. Everybody wants to tell his/her own version of story/happenings and no body wants to listen. I can say that I am a good listener and I allow others to speak first, if I am in a group and listen to them intently. I speak only when need arises. My patient hearing give a kind of relief to the speaker and s/he feels contended that at least there is someone who listened to me.

Both. I fall in both the categories. I like to talk and also listen. For me both are fun. If the speaker is interesting then listening becomes interesting. If the listener is not good then its boring to speak to him or her.

This is a golden rule that one should listen more and talk less.

I think I'm better in talking than listening. It maybe sounds like funny but honestly, I had a problem with my ears. Sometimes, I can't hear a word clearly and I'm always asking what my chat mate said. Perhaps, cleaning my ears daily affects my hearing. Better to setup a schedule for my checkup.

I consider myself as a good listener. When someone shares information, i just put myself in her shoes.I take time to listen to her, I ask question but not to the extent that i can make interruptions.In that way the two of us will easily discover solutions to the discussions we had.

I do both.I talk a lot but I listen equally well[I am not one of those who likes to hear her/his own voice all the time.I have been acknowledged as a good listener and people do talk to me .

I am a good listener. I am bad at explaining things. I usually can talk very well in one on one talk but thwen there is a lot of people, I get nervous and I forget what I have to say. Therefore I am a good listener because I do not talk while others are talking.

I think I would be a talker type of person.Although I do listen to people as well.I like to help others as well.I can't always help people like I would like to but I do my best to try to do what I can.

Iam a good listener and a bit good speaker too... I listen to people when they talk and they are always interested in listening to me whenever I talk. But I prefer talking less but talking sense. So thats why people want to listen to me. Happy MyLotting!

At times I can be a great listener, and the next time I'll be a heck of a talker. When I sense that someone really needs to talk, then I'll truly listen. When I'm in my chatterbox mood though, I'll talk your ears off. All in all, it pays to be a good listener. Sometimes people just need to be heard, to know that someone took time out to listen to them.

i am a good listener, you can talk to me about your problems, sentiments and even your secrets... secrets i can keep for the rest of my life. i am also a good adviser...but i pity those who are good talker...because they can talk almost everything, they can easily expressed what they think and feel. if god permits, i want to be both.

I'm more a listener than a speaker. I strongly believe that it's better to keep your mouth shout and to make people think your a fool than to open your mouth and confirm people that you're indeed a fool. Words usually have to be chosen carefully. That doesn't mean I don't like talkers, I like listening and everyone has things to say. Just some people do that easier :)

i am still not sure about this there are times where i am a good talker and there are times where i am a good listener i think the best is still fitting in to the situation if there is a need to listen then listen back to the point i think i am mostly a good listener than a good talker i would listen first then only talk about the matter once i had though of everything

I'd like to think I'm both but I do talk a lot. I can listen though, and a lot of the time depending on my mood I try to avoid discussion as much as possible so I let others talk and I listen. And I actually LISTEN. I don't just nod my head in agreement.

I am very talkative, but I know if I could listen to people more than talking, it would be great and more beneficial. Most of the times, when we tend to speak much, we ignore facts about our surroundings, whereas if you are listening, you can care for your surroundings, as it's the time when you are able to observe things.

Hi Buchi_bulla, I am both a good talker and a good listener. I have been habituated fromm childhood what others tell. I also a talker when there are topics to speak. One should be having patience to listen or talk contiously. Have a great day

I think most of the times I am more into a listener than a talker. I like to hear what everyone want to say, so that I gain new knowledge and experience from them. When I have to respond, then i will respond in good manners , allowing him/her to continue his/her speech. However, sometimes, I do like to talk. then everything comes out from my mind without I realizing that I had store that kind of knowledge somewhere in my tiny brain cells. It is like exploring myself further and knowing what I am capable of. Therefore, in my opinion we should try to be both to get more understanding to the world.

This I determined by time,and sometimes I am able to say that even an individual,saud a king time,but sometimes I prefer to hear someone say,maybe I have a dual personality,and I are of two types of people.

I am a good listener rather than a talker, i am not denied that this kind of personality can let me have more close friends coz when they have personal issues, they would like to stay with me and ask my suggestions. but sometimes i consider myself a little bit shy person coz i am afraid to make speaches or jokes in front of many people who are not my close friends. i really want to change myself to involve in more exciting atmosphere,geting to know people in different classes or work in different fields.
