    I like how Kramer seems to be the only one who can hear her: it shows you how affection and understanding go together.

      Yes but if you remember, Kramer is *always* the only one who never follows the POVs of Jerry, George and Elaine. Except of course when he agreed to repeat that funny voice saying, _Helloooooo... la la laaaa_

      @cletusjones9411 i use to be a low talker then i discovered acting and gained more confidence 😃
      one time i completely over compensated for being too quiet and that became a seinfeld sketch in itself ,
      i turned to everyone as i was yelling and just declared '' DON'T WORRY I'M JUST REHEARSING FOR A SHOW !!! !''
      thankfully the woman i was with forgave me for my antics !! lol!😅

    I once worked with a low talker, a friendly but diminutive Filipino dude. Once at a meeting (he was not present) his name came up as a possible candidate to head up some project and I just blurted out "Am I the only one who never knows what the hell he is saying?" Everyone in the meeting sort of gasped for a second and then bust out laughing because apparently everyone felt the same way but no one wanted to say anything.

    There is an old man who has a SLIGHTLY louder tone to his voice than hers at the shop where I work.
    When I was new at this company, I thought it was the machines and fans that were drowning out his voice...
    One day he approches me and whispers something while pointing at some paperwork I had worked on earlier. I had NO IDEA what he said, so I just said "Umm-Yeah." and he coughed to clear his voice! All I could make out was "What do you mean 'Yeah'? I'm telling you to..." and that's all I could make out after that! I walked away and pretended to be busy elsewhere.
    I wasn't going to place my ear close to his mouth every time just to try to hear what he was saying 😅

Us soft speaking people literally have no idea we're doing it because we can hear ourselves just fine and the distance between my voice to my ears is almost the same as to yours.

    I know a person who talk so low I can never hear him. Then there will be times where he is speaking directly into a mic and I still can’t hear him. How is that even possible?

    My girlfriend is a low talker. She blames it on my hearing, or something, I CAN'T HEAR HER!

    What bothers me is how they never TELL her to speak louder.
