Listening is considered as a good civilized behavior, and it is the most important part of true connection with others, so when you listen to another person that means you are respecting his thoughts and opinions, even if you don’t agree with.
Furthermore, the one who is good in listening gives himself some prestige, and looks more wisd and more clever and simply makes good conversations.
In general, people used to talk more than to listen, and some people are interested in speaking more, even if they don’t have anything to say.
And there are some who show their listening and attention but in reality they were thinking about something to say.
