Don't Talk Too Much!

very talkative person not to offend him and finish the conversation. Well I'll tell him I have a lot of work and fast. I think you should just explain that now you can not talk. I think there are many talkative people but still very misunderstood. success. nice day!

yes you are right, i think it is better for talk less do more. too much talking will decreasing our productivity. and i think, become a good listener is also good choice. we can learn many thing from being a good listener. sometime, someone that too much talking, do not have any capability. and it is true in many cases. so talk less do more, okay

I hate talkative people and can't stay with them for long. When I say talkative, I mean those people who talks a lot but do not talk with sense. It is okay if they talk a lot about sensible things, I surely would pay attention and could even spend a day exchanging my own views with that kind of person. But if the person is just talkative and laud with no sense to impart then to me he is annoying.

Hello mel, I do believe in what you have posted. It would be good to be a good listener also and not talk to much. I have heard of a saying something like "if you have nothing good to say then don't talk anymore," not the exact words but the meaning is good. We have to control what we say especially if we are going to say something that would offend or destroy other people. Have a great day ahead of you and have fun mylotting!

hi there mel0482, as the many people are saying, less talk less mistakes, so this is the best thing to do in order to avoid committing mistakes. as what you have written is absolutely right. sometimes, the more we talk, the more chances of getting misunderstood and more chance of saying unwanted comments. and to tell you honestly, it is quite difficult to deal and treat a talkative person. as there are times, you will never know how to stop him/her in talking.

you are correct with that. For us to be able to avoid trouble, I think we should be good listeners so that every word that will come out of our mouth will not be used against us.

Let people be who they are ... we cant change anyone and everyone one has a right to be who they are ... talkative or not ... different strokes for different folks ... there is room for everyone and everyone has a reason to be here .. live and let live is my moto ...

i can have the tendency to talk too much but only when i like to have fun. but during work, i tend to listen more before talking. there are people who would go on talking and even simultaneous with the one currently talking.

That's very true. So, in order to stop the person from talking so much, pretend that you have to attend to something. I always do that to somebody, who likes sitting on the chair at my table and starts talking about many things specially her rants on the office. When i have heard enough, i pretend to go to the CR or to get water from the dispenser. She gets to stand and leave too.

Hello mel0482, I am not much talkative but i never keep quiet when i think i should speak out.I have seen many people who talk more and listen less to the people but i don't think its bad unless he/she speaks irelevant/bad.Some of my friends are very talkative but i always enjoy time with them as it becomes boring if 2 people meet who don't speak much but only listen.

Welcome to mylot mel0482 I do hope you enjoy it here, I know I do. You are not like me I think because you have already created several discussions. Please listen to me ok mel0482? I hope you know I am being friendly and sincere here. I know what you are saying about people who talk a lot. They sometimes do not stop to listen and that can get in trouble, you are right. I know one person in real life, a close friend of mine that talks consistently but you really have to grab her attention to tell her something. I usually say, now listen to me. That does it most of the time. Oh, I was saying by the way that you started several discussions already. It took me a long time to post just one as I am kind of shy and also I wanted to get a feel of what mylot was like. It is good that you are doing this. It is like talking up. Anyway, you have a nice day. I like serious discussions and the occasional silly one too. I guess we are allowed. Don’t talk too much!

hah,when i meet the person who will say too much more,and i will tell him,oh,i am sorry,i have somethings to do my wife require.So,i can not listen.Bye...:)

i have many talkative friends and i don't know why but i like them because with them you never feel alone and even if they disturb me sometimes i think that they are very kind people

Yes, "less talk less mistakes". a good way to deal with persons that talks a lot is by being silent. Sometimes silence is a very therapeutic in conversations. Maybe not talking at all will help him/her realize that he/she had enough talking. Ahahaha. Or maybe you can just politely say to him/her that you heard enough and you don't want to hear more. ^^,

Hi. Your advice is very, very apt. I think the easiest way to get into trouble is to talk too much. I haven't actually met someone talkative who isn't a friend of mine. I'm blunt with my friends. If they're talkative, I tell them that they talk too much, period. But how to deal with a talkative person you just met? Hmm. I guess I'd just politely excuse myself if I can. If I'm stuck with the person, though, I'd probably will keep silent, hoping the person would get my drift and stop talking :)

Welcome to Mylot Mel0482. If i may add, we can also get much bigger trouble if we have something in black & white. At least with words, it is not always recorded. On the other hand, with writing, it is even documented. Hence, we have to be careful with whatever we say or write otherwise it can be used against us.

Hi, I can't agree with you more. We will definitely save ourselves a lot of trouble if we choose to remain silent at appropriate times. It's good to lend a helping ear as it will indirectly helps to improve our own self one way or another.Avoid confrontations with the overly talkative types is the best way out. It's always good to remain silent, as silence speaks louder than words.

I agree with you, it is better to be a listener most of the time. Because we tend up to say things we actually don't mean to say which sometimes has negative inclination.

I believe in a saying "less talk less mistake" If i am not to speak i won't speak at all.I might screw up everything by talking nonsense or i might add something that is necessary.It is better stay quiet than talk non sense.I always met people like that,Talkative,what i do mot of the time is listen to them but try to comment as short as possible.I don't tell them about how i hate their behavior because that will really hurt their feelings. Those kind of person more often brings us to trouble.
