-
So that we can feel like there's someone actually listening.
-
Cause we're great listeners.
-
I always seem to agree with myself.
-
So someone will LISTEN for a change.

A habit of the old: they choose the wisest person present to speak to; the long explanations needed by the young are wearying (Gandalf)
-
Intelligent conversation. :)

You're doing exactly what the church/religion has taught you
-
I dont ha!!
-
You're doing exactly what the church/religion tells you to do
-
Uh ... because there are no trust issues involved? : )
-
Because who else really understands?
-
Just to hear what we're thinking out loud every once in awhile.
-
I don,t know but just don,t answer yourself.
-
We have to have someone that will listen!
-
To keep our sanity!!!! LOL

1.) I am my own best friend 2.) I have yet to stab myself in the back 3.) I always know what I am thinking 4.) I never get pissed off at myself
-
i would say...not to feel lonely and to motivate
-
Maybe because we are lonely. Just don't let it get out of hand, otherwise you'll begin to think that you are having conversations with other voices that are really in your head.

There are times when that is the best company you will find. Also it helps some to oragnize their thoughts if the verbalize them.
-
I often say things out loud out of frustration. Also, to recall something important at a later time(actually vocalizing it really helps in the remembering department). Of course, I justify it by aiming my comments toward my dog. That doesn't count as talking to yourself, does it?
-
who else will listen?
-
sometimes the speakers go out on my inner voice
-
Because I'm the only one who understands myself. If I say the things I say to myself to anyone else, they just give me a strange look.
