IMHO it doesn't tend to work. That person must fill their time and typically they do with someone else who isn't you and that they grow to like better and put first. Also, you spend 40+ hours at work and want to talk about it but, they have nothing to compare with the all friend inducing "I know what you mean" but, if you really don't... it is going to grate.

Or someone who had kids (maybe grown) who did not talk about their kids all the time or her husband either. Sometimes people enjoy having a break from their families.

I suppose it is possible but I haven't seen it. If you have kids.. your gonna talk about them. As I can tell by the 10 or so semi acquaintances who do fill my day with conversations about their kids even though I am working and how can they seriously think i care?
I am not just making up lines I just am learning from experience. I need to find fellow loners like me to have a "meaningful" relationship in the first instance.
