Are you a g ood listener? Are you the kind of person who listens when someone is talking to you. Takes it all in, then you respond with an informed answer. Or, are you the kind of person who only listens for a break when someone is talking so you can jump in and say what you have to say?
I always try to hear everything someone is saying to me... looking them in the eyes and really hearing what they have to say. Are you a good listener?

hi momma,
I am a good listener, whenever a family member,friend or anyone talks to me about something may it be a secret or not..I always listen letting them know I care & always here for them, I do keep eye contact as well all the time while in a conversation..& I always assure that if i'm the only one who knows about it,then that secret is safe with me.

34 momma I am now but when my son was little he often accused me of
not paying full attention when he was telling me something. I realized that in a way that is as insulting to a youngster as it feels to
an adult when you really do not stop everything and listen to all of
what one is saying to you.so now I really do listen to all of what
someone says to me, then I can answer sensibly as I have heard them through all that they had to say to me.

I can say I'm a good listener. When a serious topic comes up like a problem opening up, I don't butt in to tell my own experience. I usually let her/him finish. I guess my problem is I think I need to respond somehow after he/she finishes.It's just that most of the time I don't know what to say.

I can say that
I am a good listener, because I can give full concentrate to that particular person who is talking in front of me.I lend my ear, look at his eye. Every one says that good listener becomes a good speakers.
