    Hello Allen,

`I had a similar experience. As I kept going however, interest (per say) in conversation meant less than caring about the person, and so balanced out the equation. As people who are laboring for spiritual attainment, I believe we often end up being the ones who must take the high road. Another way to look at it is to realize that being anti-social (I don't mean to choose too strong of a word, but I'm at a loss for another way to put it), could be considered a trait for the negative soul mirror in and of itself. Practioners in the Western Tradition deal with daily life as a way of progressing on their path. Ignoring mundane concerns is not the way to transend them.
Warm Regards,
Simon`
