is this a feminine trait or just an annoying habit?

[Suziack]

I have noticed a lot of women do this.

The difference between "annoying" and simply "how you communicate" is the way in which you answer the questions. Annoying is being vague and weird and cryptic, and not answering the question at all. How you communicate, on the other hand, is elaborating on something. For example:

Question: So are you excited about moving?
Direct answer: Yes or no.
Elaborate answer: Well, yes and no...I'm excited to be having a fresh start, and Bobby's new job pays way better, but at the same time I am going to miss my family, and I worry that the stress of moving will cause Bobby and I to fight.

Annoying Answer: Well, um... tonight we're going out to eat, and um, I just can't stand that girl next door, and um, um... What did you do/happened to your hair???

LOL... I could go on and on for days about this subject, but everyone keeps wriggling out of the ropes and running away

The boss at one of my sites has taken to writing notes in a diary or text when it comes to communicating with me.  I think I've scared him from actually calling me I can take so long to give an answer.  Even when I'm asking him a question it takes me a while to get to what information I'm actually asking about
