Are you a good listener and how good are you

Personally, am not a good listener, whenever someone is talking to me my mind is elsewhere. I prefer reading and writing to talking and listening. I always repeat questions cause i always miss out the response. My pals get annoyed whenever ask for an encore of what they just said.

Hi, I think I'm a good listener. I enjoy listening to what others have to say and offering advice if I can. Maybe it's just that mother thing in me,lol

I think I may have the same problem. It's not that my mind is elsewhere necessarily,but sometimes it's just that quite a few of my friends don't speak very clearly or loud enough.Two of my best friends have really soft voices and I find myself repeating the question "WHAT"? all the time. I feel like a am being a bit rude sometimes, but it's really not anything I think I can help doing. My best suggestion I guess would be to make sure you are in a quiet area when you are talking to your friends or having a more detailed discussion.
