Attention Kmart Shoppers!

I have always thought of myself as an attentive listener. I like to hear peoples stories, no matter how silly or serious they are. I enjoy the way people are animated or lack animation when they talk. Hand gestures are the best! So with this being said I guess I take it for granted that others are not as attentive as I am. I don't hold this against them or anything, I just wonder if I am too attentive.
