There are many reasons why a person may choose to end a conversation – for example, the other person may not be giving satisfactory answers, you may be emotionally charged, or you simply have nothing more to say.
But the worst kind of conversations are the ones that are toxic, make you feel uncomfortable, and have no value for you. TikToker Jefferson Fisher, a lawyer who "teaches people how to argue and communicate," shared his method for shutting down toxic conversations with his followers.
According to Fisher, the best way to end a toxic conversation is to say "I'm not going there". How can we adapt the sentence in Albanian? There are several versions. For example:
1. "We leave this discussion at that."
2. "I'm skipping this topic."
3. "I don't want to get involved at all."
4. "I'm staying out of this conversation."
5. "I don't want to touch it as a topic at all."
These sentences mean that the person does not want to engage in or discuss a certain topic, situation or thought and shows a desire to avoid a specific topic.
According to Fisher, such a phrase implies that you have nothing to say and sets limits on the conversation. At the same time, you are polite and correct.
