What will you do when you meet a very talkative person?

Hi,hua,It was happened for me many times.That too basically i am less talkative and introvert.These two characters increase the pain when i faced very talkative person.But i got the stubborn character odf say truth on face.So i tell him on face that i don't have interest in hearing your words.Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

that's depends on the topic, i will try to interact with that person, if it's the topic i know, if not, i'll just listen, and take it as an opportunity to learn new things. but in case i am not in the right mood, and the topic is truely boring, i guess i will try to find a way out and just let him enjoy his talking with others.

he is probably lonely and doesnt have anyone to talk to. i feel sorry for him. i probably will stay in the same group, listen to him, and pretend i am a psychologist. and try to add some stuff, here and there, for my input. and see where it goes from there. either he will get bored and leave. or i will fall asleep and he will leave to find someone else.

I just smile and nod lol Then wait for them to stop talking/leave =)

...Hi huanran, Wellll I am one of those talkative people. :o) So when I meet another talkative person, I have to be a bit quiet and not hog the spotlight as I sometimes do. As I love words and I like to talk about most subjects, because it is an interesting world and a lot of things are going on everyday. Such as three Americans winning the Nobel prize for medicine and three other Americans sharing the Nobel prize for Physics. So as you can tell maybe, I am excited about life and what is going on. But there are things called manners and in conversation, you should talk, but then you should let others talk and you should listen. I am trying. Take care always.

I think that would make things easier. Im not a very talkative person myself, im more of a listener. So i rather enjoy listen what he/she is talking about than talking. But i understand sometimes it could be a little bit overwhelming this kind of persons, but still i wouldnt do that to them.

okay..i am talkative myself.. but i do not keep others pinned listening to me,.,i am sensistive and i know if the person is interested or not...i do meet a lot of people who could not just stop... and if they are ince to talk with i stay... but if i have better things to do... i definitely excuse myself...

It depends on whether I like the talkative guy/gal or not. I have found that when you like someone, then I odn't mind listening to what they have to say. Whatever they say and how they say it interests me. But if it is someone I can't tolerate, then even one sentence they say becomes intolerable. So, I guess my criterion is whether I like the talkative person or not.

Just let him continue talk, i will not make a comment

HI, huan. Basically I am a good listener, so in most of time i can let them talk coz i know alot of people are very lonely in the world n they wanna share their feeling with others. If you listen carefully, you can find some interesting points and learn from these guys.

I actually tend to be that talkative person. The best way to derail me is to strike up a conversation that is hard to have one sided. Politics tends to be good (even though that can spark a fight...) because you can always argue with what the other person says, or add more information to their argument. See, there i go talking to much! Heh.
