A short spoken segment (YouTube video) arguing that indirect communicators are often excellent storytellers. The speaker contrasts flat summaries with narrative arcs—strife, struggle, emotional engagement, and resolution—and explains that indirect communication lets listeners experience characters and their journeys, forming judgments and feelings along the way.
So indirect communicators can be good conversation. They're great storytellers oftentimes because they're, they're making their way. Like, Jack and Jill got married and lived happily ever after. The end. Nobody. Like, that's not a fun story, right? So we want to know, oh, how, how did things happen? What. Where did this thing lead? And the strife and the struggle and then the overcoming and all the. The crescendo of the story. That's all indirect communication. And along that path, like, you're feeling emotions and you're coming to determinations. And you like this character. You don't like that character. And so, like indirect communicators, that's kind of how they. They do things.
