People romanticising antisocial behaviour and standoffish elitist approaches to human interactions as signs of great intelligence is kind of sad. It’s good to treat others with kindness and attentiveness.
yeah, well, some armies are more well equipped than others, and much larger 'defense budgets', so I still root for the small ones. They can take off work for months to deal with personal issues no problem, not so for normal folks, so I save my energy for the normal folks.
Problem is many people continue talking when you are trying to escape the situation. Small talk just to pass the time is wasted time. Could always do something better...
People who can get along with anybody, make them feel special and seen have a unique opportunity and special power. So don't knock down small talk because I'd wish I had the knack for it
On the business side, making deals relies on having a poker face so seeming aloof and uninterested was considered an advantage. I hope that changes with more diversity in the field though since not everybody operates that way. You can be strategic and successful without being an awkward jerk

It is nice to see no one is dissing Talulah or saying she was after his money. Her father is Doug Milburn and Talulah came from an affluent family anyway.
Elon was her classmate when they were sweethearts at high school. She was married and had six kids with Elon before he founded his first company. Just read her story or listen to her interviews.
Asperger people don't like small talk because they don't understand meaning of it. Some details of human interaction don't exist for them. It's hard to explain what small talk is to human like that. Like explaining colors to colorblind.
Small talk is something you can learn, esp since Elon is a public figure. Even if you don't talk and just listen, you should still be polite whether you have Asperger's or not.
Small talk always seemed like the way to get to big talk. Terrible at it so rarely got to big talk with many people unless we were drinking. Maybe the people I eventually did get to big talk with were people like me who also hated small talk but figured it out to get to big talk. Hard to understand how anyone could like small talk outside of flirting.
@@Yellow-Rose yes you can learn small talk and you will know what to say but you can not "feel it" if you're brain is on asperger spectrum. You will always think it's stupid.

And why is she sharing her thoughts that “he probably just didn’t like you” and that she then texts him - doesn’t put her in a good light to gloat about this, her comment says more about her than him

People need to chill in the comment section. Elon is Elon, he will not change. Yeah it’s great to treat people with kindness and listen to them, but some people are bad at it or don’t like it and that is just fine. Being a good communicator and a caring person overall is a good trait and very charming but being antisocial and not liking to talk to people or not feeling the responsibility to make them feel better about themselves is just as fine. Let people be
You probably don’t mean antisocial. That’s something you find in narcissists, sociopaths, etc. I think you mean asocial. Also, it’s not about Elon’s social disposition. It’s about his attitude. The giveaway is that the first thing he says about them is “boring.” I have similar experiences when I go out, but I try to start off by recalling something nice about a person.

Precisely, just look at Andrew Tate. He is rich, too many view him as a genius when in reality he's just too full of himself. There are some takes I agree with but at the end of the day he is completely deranged.

I'm not rich, neither am I very kind towards small group of people I interact with. I think we should look at ourselves and not judge someone we know nothing personally about.
She doesn't look ok and it's weird i feel she is still attached to him in a painful way, not so much as his first wife though. It's as if he is the male correspondent of a femme fatale that destroys the best men among best men. He is a sort of accomplished man that is the dream partner in the eyes of some women, he chooses the best women out of the best (nice character smart elegant proffesionally accomplished famous beautiful educated aso) but is capable of emotionally detaching from the relationship at the speed of light. So MAYBE these women didn't even get the chance of even realizing what happened when the relationship ended or why and are still aching. I have a sense that he is an all accomplished person that falls deeply in love and quickly out of love and he has amazing resources to move on and mind what is so much more important in life than looong life long romantic relationships that need constant effort and emphathy and generosity and kindness and self sacrifice to last, most important things which are his dreams, his succes and his children. It's as if a woman just got the so called best man only to see him vanish just like sand falling through your fingers, never behaving like other men who try at least to invest some sort of efforts to make things better, but he is ok to just not waste his energy and move on. Am i making sense, is there any truth in what i just said, or is it my imagination gone too far?!?! Bc i really don't know any of these people, yet i feel strongly my points are highly possible, though i have no proof for that!
@marekjanko8047 That's exactly the vibe i have gotten from all of his ex girlfriend's except for Amber Heard. Ofher then her they all seem still attached
Eh, she seems to be doing alright for herself and she still texts her ex to whine anout wokeness on twitter or whatever it's called now. Can't say i feel too bad for her.
"The great thing about being famous is that when you sit next to somebody you don't know at a dinner party, they think the bad conversation is their fault."
Correct. A common characteristic of brilliant, genius people is ‘boredom’. Makes sense if you think about it. It is well documented that highly intelligent, genius level people exist on a higher stratosphere. He can’t stop his mind from racing, thinking, creating, inventing, solving problems, if he tried. That machine runs 24/7. Albeit both a blessing and a curse, I say rather than focus on a personality characteristic, let’s take from Elon, his brilliance, ingenuity, genius, inventing, creativity, or whatever his contribution, and apply it to our world. Win win situation 👍🏼.
When he's been near bankruptcy too he knows the right wealthy people who bail him out. Most of us just lose it all. If he sleeps in his car, he chose it.
This is his ex wife who married him because he was rich. She is not the best judge of character. If everyones ex was right about them, then they either a) are just as bad because they married them or b) are wrong about them and thats why they divorced.
Small talk is a bit of an art form, but one must exercise great patience with it. It truly is mostly boring. It isn't the small talk or boring conversation that irks me. Shallowness of character and lack of basic human decency are unacceptable to me. Wealth, power, attractiveness, talent all tend to attract people on a very surface level. High intelligence is intriguing. Heartlessness and shallowness repel. I never did like shallow people very well, regardless of how much money or power they had. People pay attention to Elon more than they did before because of wealth accrued ... partially. They usually want his money, or to have their moment of "fame" with him. That's shallow AND transparent to him too. Be real. It beats being surface friendly. It beets shallow and insincere every single time. If someone like Elon has interest in you, he would seek you out and approach you personally after asking associates to seek you out first. Seriously. Tallulah knows this, as do other friends and associates.
Its extremely hard to date someone with antisocial syndrome. They act extra unkind and you can not find a middle ground with them when it comes to making a decision. They dont change their mind at all and raising kids with them is the hardest of all. They will disowns a child like discarding a bad coffee if they happened to be anything less than what they expected.
I have this in common with Elon but my problem is that I'm convinced that it's me that's the boring one. I have no idea how to entertain small talk and enjoy it
You understand social norms 💜 It's ok to not be good at it. At least you recognize it and don't blame other people. Small talk is part of social norms and is a skill that contributes to developing bonds ie. trust/respect.
She seems really heartbroken not to be with him anymore. And as the mother of so many of his children, with all she went through, he should not have left her. She is beautiful and utterly lovely. So warm, she looks like an angel. He seems to be obsessed with having as many children as possible.

Besides, no intelligence dictates to abandon the mother of your children, whatever the cause may be; because intelligent people know that all children need their mother and a child’s well-being - especially your children’s - is more important than any egoism, whim or desire of your grown up ass.
@@solomon9853 They’re literally trying to find anything to hate on him for. They hate on him because he came from money. Seriously? Did he choose to be born in a family that has has an emerald mine? He benefitted from that wealth. Now he is the richest man in the world. People need to stop acting like it’s a crime to be born in a family with money. People are just insecure. The heck?
A lot of people are saying he’s not kind…well, being kind doesn’t mean he needs to be fake. Doing good for humanity and charity work is being kind, small talk is just fake nice. Being kind to people energize you, being fake drains your energy.
Most individuals dislike small talk. Elon isn't an anomaly. Besides he can actively-afford to show disdain for "small talk", whilst most people cannot.😊🥰
Elon is very nice to listen to , very insightful person . He is just not one of the "look at my money" type of people, he likes achievements , inspired the next generation to be ambitious & work hard ! He is way nicer than all the corporate elites he got crammed with , he is a force of positive change & a source of hope for struggling Americans . Elon leads & doesn't waste time in champagne parties !
He also dislikes dodging subpoenas and being a good person. Mostly he is a immature dude throwing tantrums. We can watch it in real time on twitter atm. Insane that people think he is actually smart.
Insane that people think he is actually smart?? Lol..that's the dumbest thing I've heard in like....ever. Your green is showing, get over it and move on...
what's wrong with Grimes?? It saddens me that so many know her only as Elons ex. She's a legit artist, just as she was years before she got involved with Musk
I've always liked Grimes. She had a career before musk and has some cool interests. I'd be friends or at least have a good conversation with her even if she didn't know Elon.
Eh... you probably will not care. Nevertheless, Grimes seems genuinely intelligent and nice. She's f*cking weird, but I saw her in an interview with a guy that looks like the Arctic Monkeys singer and she was very, very cool. Everything she said were straight up facts. So no need to insult her. The amazing thing is how they both ended up married to someone like him, who seems... eh, overhyped.
He is a genuis, they can't have everything in life. This lady obviously has some social emotional skills which are gifts as well, and Elon lacks these because he is skilled in others. People should drop judging and get to learn others more
True.. but all what she achieved with this attitude is : being famous as Elon ex wife and I will now spit on him to stay in focus. On the other side Elon is silent.. but he is CEO of 3 successful companies! ! And of course he's achievements are magnet for some less successful - without anything else linked with him.
My reply to Elon in the moment would be "Well, you weren't asking the right questions were you?" There's an art to getting people to feel comfortable and trust you enough to share deeper aspects of themselves.
She has been in many movies and Popular TV series. She is a very good actress. I love her in everything she has done especially a Miss Marple episode where she played a main character. She was lovely in Pride and Prejudice.

Nobody cares "how you're doing" and they don't even pretend to. So, why not actually talk to people instead of just saying words. That is my preference. You do you, though.
@@Khaleesi_Of_Kittens Polite, superficial talk has its place. No need to launch into personal or other things when you don’t know the person well, and often situations call for surface talk although it doesn’t have to be about the weather. Even with light chat you can find out you’ve got something in common with whoever you’re talking to. That can lead to spending more time with them. Etc.
Small talk is what gets people a lot of deals and negotiations. Its also just polite lol

Small talk is the starting point of possibly deeper conversation once you establish comfort around the person
That's not necessarily true....
It's more a personality tendency.

No, not necessarily.
For me it feels like walking a tight rope for no reason so I just avoid it
Asperger people don't like small talk because they don't understand meaning of it. Some details of human interaction don't exist for them. It's hard to explain what small talk is to human like that. Like explaining colors to colorblind.
Small talk is something you can learn, esp since Elon is a public figure. Even if you don't talk and just listen, you should still be polite whether you have Asperger's or not.
Small talk always seemed like the way to get to big talk. Terrible at it so rarely got to big talk with many people unless we were drinking. Maybe the people I eventually did get to big talk with were people like me who also hated small talk but figured it out to get to big talk. Hard to understand how anyone could like small talk outside of flirting.
Very true. I didn't think of that.
@@Yellow-Rose yes you can learn small talk and you will know what to say but you can not "feel it" if you're brain is on asperger spectrum. You will always think it's stupid. Sometimes feel superior to normal humans because of it. Feelings of superiority is also common for asperger especially children 🙂
Intelligent people don't like small talk because it lowers their IQ level by listening to all the ignorance and stupid shit that people say.

Gloat? She was just telling an anecdote about her intuition & how that later turned out to be right.
Thank You. This Was The Comment I Was Looking For.
now Elon better figure out the small talk thing... or he is going to make enemies !!!

@@voodoodolll it’s okay to think smalltalk is worthless. But I see people genuinely smiling and be grateful for a conversation. It’s often the first step.

@Different Pound Agreed.
People need to chill in the comment section. Elon is Elon, he will not change. Yeah it’s great to treat people with kindness and listen to them, but some people are bad at it or don’t like it and that is just fine. Being a good communicator and a caring person overall is a good trait and very charming but being antisocial and not liking to talk to people or not feeling the responsibility to make them feel better about themselves is just as fine. Let people be
Yah the comment section is total cancer, they talk like they know him personally
You probably don’t mean antisocial. That’s something you find in narcissists, sociopaths, etc. I think you mean asocial.
Also, it’s not about Elon’s social disposition. It’s about his attitude. The giveaway is that the first thing he says about them is “boring.” I have similar experiences when I go out, but I try to start off by recalling something nice about a person.

The sad part is that people equate money with genius. They might correlate but they aren’t cause and effect
Precisely, just look at Andrew Tate. He is rich, too many view him as a genius when in reality he's just too full of himself. There are some takes I agree with but at the end of the day he is completely deranged.

Tears in her eyes remembering that money 💰 😭 😢
Feel sorry for her, just imagine all the crap she had to put up with… still she’s ok now,
She doesn't look ok and it's weird i feel she is still attached to him in a painful way, not so much as his first wife though. It's as if he is the male correspondent of a femme fatale that destroys the best men among best men. He is a sort of accomplished man that is the dream partner in the eyes of some women, he chooses the best women out of the best (nice character smart elegant proffesionally accomplished famous beautiful educated aso) but is capable of emotionally detaching from the relationship at the speed of light. So MAYBE these women didn't even get the chance of even realizing what happened when the relationship ended or why and are still aching. I have a sense that he is an all accomplished person that falls deeply in love and quickly out of love and he has amazing resources to move on and mind what is so much more important in life than looong life long romantic relationships that need constant effort and emphathy and generosity and kindness and self sacrifice to last, most important things which are his dreams, his succes and his children. It's as if a woman just got the so called best man only to see him vanish just like sand falling through your fingers, never behaving like other men who try at least to invest some sort of efforts to make things better, but he is ok to just not waste his energy and move on. Am i making sense, is there any truth in what i just said, or is it my imagination gone too far?!?! Bc i really don't know any of these people, yet i feel strongly my points are highly possible, though i have no proof for that!

Correct. A common characteristic of brilliant, genius people is ‘boredom’. Makes sense if you think about it. It is well documented that highly intelligent, genius level people exist on a higher stratosphere. He can’t stop his mind from racing, thinking, creating, inventing, solving problems, if he tried. That machine runs 24/7. Albeit both a blessing and a curse, I say rather than focus on a personality characteristic, let’s take from Elon, his brilliance, ingenuity, genius, inventing, creativity, or whatever his contribution, and apply it to our world. Win win situation 👍🏼.
"coming from nothing" when you inherited millions from parents educated in your field 🤣🤣🤣 hillarious
When he's been near bankruptcy too he knows the right wealthy people who bail him out. Most of us just lose it all. If he sleeps in his car, he chose it.
That's about herself
Just like Donnie. Except he still managed to go bankrupt soooooo many times.
I think she's talking about their relationship's evolution
Both his parents still alive, he inherited nothing, he actually supports them.........

Small talk time is an incredibly powerful opportunity to learn what others think about whatever your personal agenda is.
Anyone else think he seems like a narcissist?
This is his ex wife who married him because he was rich. She is not the best judge of character. If everyones ex was right about them, then they either a) are just as bad because they married them or b) are wrong about them and thats why they divorced.

Small talk is a load of bollocks. I do agree with Elon, here. There is far more important things to do and think about than meaningless conversations.
The same could be said about youtube comments.
If you don't know them give respect, if you know them treat them accordingly.
Small talk is a bit of an art form, but one must exercise great patience with it. It truly is mostly boring. It isn't the small talk or boring conversation that irks me. Shallowness of character and lack of basic human decency are unacceptable to me.
Wealth, power, attractiveness, talent all tend to attract people on a very surface level. High intelligence is intriguing. Heartlessness and shallowness repel. I never did like shallow people very well, regardless of how much money or power they had.
People pay attention to Elon more than they did before because of wealth accrued ... partially. They usually want his money, or to have their moment of "fame" with him. That's shallow AND transparent to him too.
Be real. It beats being surface friendly. It beets shallow and insincere every single time.
If someone like Elon has interest in you, he would seek you out and approach you personally after asking associates to seek you out first. Seriously.
Tallulah knows this, as do other friends and associates.
"......felt like being on rocket" sure you did, but the launch pad was bed 😂😂😂

Its extremely hard to date someone with antisocial syndrome. They act extra unkind and you can not find a middle ground with them when it comes to making a decision. They dont change their mind at all and raising kids with them is the hardest of all. They will disowns a child like discarding a bad coffee if they happened to be anything less than what they expected.
Not entirely true. I don’t like small talk or interactions. Doesn’t mean I’m unkind and always open to compromise.

You understand social norms 💜 It's ok to not be good at it. At least you recognize it and don't blame other people. Small talk is part of social norms and is a skill that contributes to developing bonds ie. trust/respect.

He treated her like garbage 🗑
And yet she married him twice, took two divorce payments and remain as friends till this day.
WOKEY
Her being married twice to this man etc doesn't proove he wasn't/isn't a total ass to her
Abuse dynamics are very complex
Many women like that. That's why they are attracted to bad boys.
Wow, revealing things someone told you in confidence within the bounds of an intimate relationship is a breach of trust.

"don't tell the others they'll only laugh"
"Hay, who turned out the lights"

The fact that he feels he doesn't have to try to be polite is rude. Unkind. And they can be the bore.
Lol I can’t believe Elon left this woman for the freaking garden gnome he married after her
Damn don’t need to diss grimes but I do agree it’s a bit creepy how many Elon has gone thru.
what's wrong with Grimes?? It saddens me that so many know her only as Elons ex. She's a legit artist, just as she was years before she got involved with Musk
I've always liked Grimes. She had a career before musk and has some cool interests. I'd be friends or at least have a good conversation with her even if she didn't know Elon.
Eh... you probably will not care.
Nevertheless, Grimes seems genuinely intelligent and nice. She's f*cking weird, but I saw her in an interview with a guy that looks like the Arctic Monkeys singer and she was very, very cool.
Everything she said were straight up facts.
So no need to insult her. The amazing thing is how they both ended up married to someone like him, who seems... eh, overhyped.
Nothing wrong with either of them.

He is a genuis, they can't have everything in life. This lady obviously has some social emotional skills which are gifts as well, and Elon lacks these because he is skilled in others. People should drop judging and get to learn others more
Elon is not a genius
True.. but all what she achieved with this attitude is : being famous as Elon ex wife and I will now spit on him to stay in focus.
