Does someone talk a lot annoy you?

We all know somebody like this. Hopefully, you are not one of these people. then you might lose perspective. When someone's constant jabbering begins to annoy you and get on your last nerve, you just want to be able to tune them out. If only there was a remote button to do this for us.

Yes, I do get annoyed, when there's someone prattling. I get annoyed when there's nothing of my interest in his/her talk, and though I have to listen. Sometimes they ask something, and without caring what they ask I keep nod my head and say YES to him. They don't care about others, I just wonder how they can't notice the boring signals from others face? They keep their prattling on. I just noticed your ID, Sweta Shah? Are you Gujarati? I am Indian and I am Gujarati. Its nice to see someone Gujarati here.

I have a very good friend who can talk to me a lot and I have absolutely no problem with it at all. For one thing, he's intelligent and another, he has a very pleasant speaking voice. I can listen to him for hours and never be tired. But for the most part, I can't stand people who talk too much; especially those who talk and don't really have anything of value to say. Some people just like to hear themselves. I have no problem excusing myself or just walking away from it.

Oh yes I know what you mean, I really am a person that will respect and listen to others, but their are times my eyes roll in the ack of my head and I want to die right there. Ha ha ha, I need my quite alone time, It's like all the talking gives my brain way too much to process, and then you are trying not to be rude, but even when you mumble something back just so they will stop trying to make a point, they pause and say " Yeah ya know what I mean"! Well no I don't and even if I did I wouldn't keep rehashing the same thing over and over until it became more of a problem than it had started as. OMG! I have problems too but I keep them to myself, and I really don't feel the need to lay it on someone else, like they can grant me 3 wishes or something??? :-( ANyways Yeah I totally get what you mean on the listening, and frustrations behind trying to be respectful. Try bringing up something after he pauses, and make sure it's something he doesn't want to hear or has no idea of, like if he's really old bring up something really Tech savvy, or if he's a real manly man try talking about a female show on t.v, or ask him if he's had his annual check up yet..... HA ha ha make him want to walk away from you this time. :-) And it's not being rude just giving him a little taste of boredom.

Hi swetashah: Definetly. I think that a person that just talk and talk don't make me concentrate. The worst part is that, those who just talk and talk, don't listen to what the others are saying. In your case I would just say "Sorry, I can't talk to you. I'm working right now" And then I will continue doing what I have to do totally ignoring him. I know it's not the best way to stop a conversation. But for me, that would be the only solution. Thanks for sharing with us this story. Have a nice day. ALVARO.

HECKS YEAH. I don't have to deal with this as often as you, i don't think. I dont have someone at a job to annoy me every work day lol. But i know a couple people that refuse to shut up and let me be. They'll talk about anything just to talk at me and i cant stand it muh self. I usually just ignore them and i may pretend to listen... but at times I just have to put up with it cuz that person may really need an outlet or someone to talk to, someone to be a friend or be entrusted, and i'll respect that. If they are just talking to talk and talk about trivial things or talk about other ppl negatively thats when i get pissed and tune them out. I like talking about trivial things and have fun but sometimes they may not know when to stop and let me go to bed :\ you aint alone Peace.

Before I got medicine for my bi-polar I was the person who talked way to much. I never stopped talking. If I was awake I was talking. Sometimes I'd just talk to myself even lol. My daughter is pretty much the same way she talks so much and I just like cant deal with it like I should. I'm always asking her to just not talk for like 5 minutes so I can relax.

there are really people who tends to over talk and it is quite annoying that you feel like shouting "shut up, give me some peace" well i know a lot of people who acts that way and i love to avoid them a lot. sometimes they tend to think they know about everything under the sun and they never run out of topic to talk about. when in a group i would just back off unnoticed but the worse thing is if he/she was just talking to me....

Yeah, as far as I am concerned, sometimes I will meet this kind of person who may usually talk a lot in front of me, sometimes I can really annoy about this. When sometimes I am thinking about a serious problem, just want to stay in a quiet place, then this kind of person comes, talking and talking. I must can not bear this action of him.I need rest then.

yup,i do get annoyed but it depends of the voice,the topic that person talks about and the way he talks..let just say if he always talk about fashion and things that is interesting..i don't mind listening because i just have to lend my ears and he did all the talking..but if he likes to talk ribbish and complaint about things that he hate(which does'nt have to do with me)..surely my blood will boil..ya know,some people hard to even speak a word but some can;t stop talking..just entertain him and maybe that;s the only thing that he is good at..don't you think so??

That depends on what the person is talking about,but being talkative in a manner is quite good, but when doing it the unproper way that is really annoying.showing respect to elders even if you're annoyed is a sign of respect,but better respond sometimes in a good manner if everything is not proper, like for instance,during working hours,you are being paid not to talk during office hours,let him know that, but in a proper approach...i get annoyed by people who talked to much,who are quack and without sense at all...But always put in mind that you can learn things too from a moron or an idiot....

i go with you. it realy annoys me that's why my working table is in the farthest side of the room so nobody can disturb me. coz sometimes there are workers especially in the government offices are idle just waiting for a work to do. that's why they keep on talking telling stories they dont mind they disturbing other employee...

I have an uncle who really really loves to talk..I always have trouble escaping when he already started to talk..and because he's my uncle I don't want to disrespect him..through all these years that passed, I finally learned to deal with him.

Yes people talking to much is annoys me. I love a person that talks slowly so we could have an intelligent conversation.
