I want a closer bond through conversation.

My skills of communication reside mostly in giving advice to other people, or answering questions if somebody doesn't understand something. Debating is another area that I'm good at. In a way the forum is perfect for me, but I don't ever get close to someone.

Most conversations with friends aren't about that. They don't always need help nor are they looking for a debate. It's mostly about having a good time.

The problem is my style of chatting is that I just exchange information, I'd ask questions and answer questions. It's especially bad if the topics are rather bland, since it kills the conversation.

The reason I blame on myself is because I see that these people don't have as much difficulty establishing a connection with other friends. I think I treat life and other people too seriously?

How about entering the interaction with the only focus being on having fun, or being playful, or being outrageous and silly.
Thanks metamorph. That's a good suggestion.
