My personality, in addition to its other qualities, is considerably overwhelming at times. I talk a lot, get really excited sometimes, and often get up in people's faces to speak to them. I feel like that gives me less credit than it should - I'm as often reserved and laid-back as I am excited - but I don't mind it. It's good to be self-effacing sometimes. It builds character.
The point is, this girl is the same way. And so, when we're talking on the phone or having a conversation in real life, it feels like I'm talking to myself on the other end, only with a higher pitched voice. All things that I want to say or do, or any particular way I want to act or behave, is met by its reciprocal on the other side, failing to fascinate or provoke interest. I feel like I'm hanging out with myself, and since myself knows so much about myself, it's hard to keep it interesting all the time.
I can't say I've experienced this kind of situation before, so if anything, it's a formative experience. Now to see how it plays out.
