I get it you could be curious, but why always doing that? Is it only out of curiosity? or caring? or ... sizing up someone?

I say because you boring asses don’t bring shit to the table and we MUST fill in the silence…otherwise we both would be just watching the wall…you aren’t any kind of conversationist are you?click to expand

I do a weird method of cold reading, if I find someone attractive I want them until they do something to put me off. In a friendship context I like sharing ideas, but I'm not really interested in mundane stuff. I'm aries, scorpio moon I'm mentioning it for comparison.
I've met a lot of Geminis, they just like sharing and gossiping. I've heard it released endorphins. At it's worse Geminis do it to be understood - I've never had that desire. At it's most basic my Gemini ex said it was to see if I wasn't an arsehole.
Gemini is one of the friends first, fuck later signs along with Libra, Sag, maybe Aqua.

I think it's only the talkative ones that asks a lot of questions. If I get asked a lot of questions it gets nerve-wracking for me. I can't remember the last time asking anybody anything to be perfectly honest. I'm not interesting in too much.
Idk. My very talkative gem friend is like me, makes more statements than asks questions. Although he and I have also discussed, several times, our lack of understanding of human behavior in general so he might be an oddball gem. I've tried learning the whole question asking thing from a water sign who says my interaction skills suck but it's awkward as hell and probably seems that way when I do it too. I hate people prying into shit although I'm pretty open about a lot of things so I find it challenging to try to do the get to know you crap because I prefer to let people tell me what they find interesting. Gem basically said the same, he's not a question asker. He will talk to an excess level though, he's definitely in the talkative category.
Your water sign friend told you wrong. There's a basic formula. Ask an open ended question > wait for the response> reply with a relevant story or opinion> wait for their response> repeat the cycle.
This place needs a heart react lol. He didn't really tell me HOW because obviously I should just know (um, obviously not actually 😂). That makes complete sense but when I'm in that situation my brain goes oh crap, question, hurry think of a question, shit this is awkward oh man act normal act normal annnddd I ask a very specific question based on something they said that can usually be answered in few words and I then make a brief statement as a reply. And then I remember why I like either really talkative people or those who lead the convo typically. Or those rare few that can appreciate comfortable silence. I'm that person sitting there watching and listening to convos at a party and fully enjoying the vibe that's constantly asked if they're having fun or if something is wrong like no, this is good I'm good 😂click to expand

Looks like they don't know/understand you at all hence all the questions. Gems talk a lot, but they rarely ask questions. They talk more about themselves then they ask about you. And it's probably cause they expect same in return - if they open up that you do the same. They are conversationists, not the interviewers. Sounds to me like they already did that part and got nothing back from you, so the questions started because they want to know what they're desling with there.

Not really .. they are pretty close people to me like family and friends. They know my life, they know what I do... but they keep wanting more details and ask many questions.. I can carry on a conversation I dont have any problem with that.. it's just if I'm the one asking the same questions.. I get general answers or like ...just the bare minimum.. and I wonder why they even ask for details if they don't reciprocate
Ok that sounds odd, if they know you that well not sure what more can they be asking. And about not reciprocating - they rarely share their life details. I mean, they talk a lot about all the random stuff or how their day went but they will rarely share with someone if something bothers them or if they have a problem or a secret. My best friend Gem I've known for over 20 years, she hardly ever talked about something that bothered her. She would ofc share details from her life when we talked, but biggest problems - never. There was one time when she poured her soul to me, she talked for hours about what was happening to her in last few years and no one knew about it. She never said a word to anyone while it lasted and it was a shocking descovery to hear someone has gone though such stuff and never said a word about it. Sometimes only way you can get such things from them is from hints. They basically say parts of the things they have in mind and you just have to figure out what's going on with them or catch that hint and ask them to elaborate lol that is if you really are interested in learning those things about them. I think they simply like being discovered, instead of telling you everything about them.click to expand

I find it strange people come to me with their marriage problems like my Sagittarius neighbor everytime she get into a heated argument with her scorpio husband like I'm a marriage counselor or something. I don't know. I guess people see me as more of a problem solver than a question asker.
Do you also get random people telling you their life story, like in a store? I feel like it's either having a comfortable vibe or like how cats always seem to be attracted to people that don't like them (ie I don't like talking so people seek me out to talk 😂).click to expand

No. No random stranger has ever done that to me thank goodness. It's not only boring to me which it is but I'm not too fond of talking to people in public where there's tons of other people floating around here and there. I like to talk in private. Random women almost always speak to me (in public) like they be wanting to talk to me. For me I'll speak back by saying "hi and how are you" and it's move it along from there. I have left women standing there like a dummy cus i guess they be looking for a conversation. Aint happening. Not in public. I feel that way about public display of affection too. I'm just strictly private all the way around. If it ain't a one on one thing behind closed doors people can forget it.
Lucky!! For some reason unbeknownst to me it's been happening to me recently. I'm too polite to just walk away and too awkward to have a clue how to escape 😂 there end up being a lot of wow, uh-huh and you don't say from me. But I do feel bad because for some reason it tends to be lonely older folks, like a lady in her 80s who's husband had died a few years prior shopping with her tiny dog she had dressed up. But ffs, why me, the introverted nonconversationalist?! I must need to work in my rbf...click to expand

Genuine curiosity, but it's a fleeting kind. I think it'd probably be easier to make up a story. My poor gem rising ex once asked me who else I slept with or had relations with after we broke up and I said "Tom, dick and harry"... And he believed me.
