Talking on the Phone
Sandy has been calling Bliss every night for several weeks and sometimes Bliss likes the have conversations with her, other times she just wants to get off the phone with her. Bliss doesn’t mind talking to Sandy on the phone, the problem is that Sandy talks way too much “Other times, Sandy talks and talks” (Bliss136). Most of the times Bliss has to end the conversation and Sandy does not really like that. I can connect with this because when I was in middle school I had a friend who would call me every night. I liked talking to her but I didn’t like talking to her every single night and for very long hours. Like Bliss, I would end the conversations with her and sometimes I would make up excuses just so that I wouldn’t have to talk to her.
That was nice of you to talk with your friend or at least make up an excuse not to talk instead of hurting her feelings.
