Are others into your hobby or interests? Do you talk about it?

Question--do you talk about things that they may not

Never
I steer the subject to their interests
This becomes educational for me, and most folks love to talk about themselves.....and, if I happen to nod off....they go away

Reminds me of an old poster of mine;

There is always plenty to talk about. I try to break up my monolog with a question, I ask lots of questions. I do pottery, spinning lumps of clay on the wheel to make beautiful pots. YES, the Ghost moment can be real even if there is not a romantic connection. I paint celestial ceiling that glow in the dark and I did home repair and remodeling for twenty years after retiring from home building. I do dances of universal peace and tantra. I also created and market as set of conversational cards that asks us to tell stories of our lives. It is called Lifes treasures and is on amazon. Never a dull moment when we pull out the cards.
 
What happened to the 'senior dating' thread? It was going strong yesterday, now it has disappeared.

All of your arts and hobbies sound interesting
Mostly I paint but I once did pottery with a friend. I had a beginner's wheel but usually she would throw the pots and I would draw on them with a sharp tool and then she would fill the cracks with iron oxide before firing. It looked a bit like pen & ink drawings but with a sepia color on creamy clay.

I need you here! I like throwing but find the glazing and decorating less fun.
 
My hobby is watching/reading every TV/YouTube video on ancient Egypt. I know it's hard to believe, but I haven't met one person, who is trying to learn hieroglyphics.?????????
