conversational decay

Conversational decay refers to the amount of time it takes for a conversation with a stranger to die down to stagnation.

In-person:

Let's say you met someone from your class or work for the first time and start talking about mutual interests, the decay of that conversation wouldn't be as quick. Therefore, it's reasonable to state that the conversational decay would be somewhere between 30 minutes to an hour.

Online:

If you meet someone on Discord for the first time and start a regular conversation with them, it is estimated that it may take between 1 minute to a few weeks for your conversation to completely stagnate with them.

The person Harry matched up with on Bumble seemed pretty promising but, the conversational decay was under 10 minutes.

Conversation Wedge

a. when two or more of your friends (or even strangers) are talking, and you come up between them and insert yourself in the conversation
b. when you are in a conversation and say something really awkward and the conversation stops because you can't say anything else

a. "Did you see how Jenny just came up and started talking to us? She's such a conversation wedge."
b. Person A: "Yeah so I was at my dad's girlfriend's place, and all I could notice was how she left her clothes everywhere!"
Person B: "I love smelling underwear."
Person A: "That's awkward. Why do you always have to create a conversation wedge?"

classic conversation

(1) a conversation held in an old-fashioned manner, usually face-to-face or on the phone; often used to denigrate old-fashioned bosses or old school parents

(2) a face-to-face conversation, as opposed to conversations via text, email, twitter or phone

(3) a conversation that instantly becomes memorable

If I had known we were going to break up via twitter, I would've asked for a classic conversation.

After all of the sexting, the classic conversation was a little weird.

My boss is old school. Doesn't do email and always wants a classic conversation.
