How do you feel about people who never stop talking? Does it bother you?

If they never stop long enough for me to have to say something back, it really takes the pressure off. I can tune them out and not worry that they'll expect me to respond.

I am one of those people and no, it doesn't bother me one bit.

I tend to talk a lot but I am mindful of that and try to give my friends an equal chance to talk. My best friend says she likes listening to me and encourages me to talk even more. I guess it's a matter of personal preference.

I feel bad for them. Yes

I extract myself as soon as I can. Nonstop talking (NOT the same as talking a lot) is rude and suggests a need to compensate for something. Nonstop talking makes the listener feel as though she/he isn't even there. Talking a lot is another thing. People who have a lot to say but who give the other guy a turn now and then are fine with me. My mom-in-law was a chatty sort, but she always remembered things I said. Nice lady.

Yes. I know those types. I have a grandmother who can turn a five minute chat into a half-hour-long conversation. Never get her on the phone. Your ear won't feel the same.

yeah... but i try to realize that even i am guilty of it too... people that are rambling on tend to annoy me but i suppose that I annoy myself sometimes with my own rambling... who am i not to listen to them when i know they are just longing to converse/teach, however boring their teachings may be

It's so draining! That's how it feels.

I DO get frustrated when someone talks incessantly -- but the solution is simple -- someone needs to start a 12 step program called Onaonanonymous!
