So I was totally inspired to work with a particular professor for my MA thesis. However, every time I try to carry on some kind of conversation about the field, the scholars, info about my work, etc. he seems to be quite short, almost like "can we get this over with", which makes me feel very uncomfortable. Here is the twist, he seems to get along quite well with a different set of students, so now of course I feel it's personal. It has come to the point where the motivation and persistence for this project is diminishing, because I know I have to communicate and ask questions to a man who does not want to enagage in an actual exchange of information. Any advice, anyone experience anything like this? what do I do?
