Comfortable silences

The following are the dialogues between Mia (Uma thurman) and Vincent (John Travolta) in movie Pulp Fiction;

Mia: Don’t you hate that?
Vincent: What?
Mia: Uncomfortable silences. Why do we feel it’s necessary to yak about bullsh!t in order to be comfortable?
Vincent: I don’t know. That’s a good question.
Mia: That’s when you know you’ve found somebody special. When you can just shut the fcuk up for a minute and comfortably enjoy the silence.

I personaly think its very true, I have experienced this comfortable silence with my wife. We can literally sit in room for long time without saying or doing anything in particular but enjoying the company.

Have any of you felt the same way ever… or is it just me?
