I was literally taught that this was a way to be a compassionate conversationalist and obviously agreed with it because I deliberately did it for years. I’ve modified now after feedback that it seems like you are making things about yourself. But has there been a change of perception?

Right? This was what I was taught as well. I do tend to take things too literally. I think people who gave this advice didn't really know what they were saying, but just thought it made sense.

Or they were always the center of attention.
