Don't you hate it when your trapped in a conversation with an incredibly selfish person? One time this person I was talking with managed to twist everything around to make it about them. Were walking in a mall and I go,
"Dude that chick was hot"
Response? "Oh yeah i knew a girl exactly like her. We met in the third grade and...."
Next, I said "That scythe is totally badass" (We are in spencers)
He answers "My Uncle was trained in middle age weaponry. He was teaching me one time when..."
Later when I dared to bring up something else "Where do you wanna eat? Sbarros?"
Response? "So I was at a Sbarros one time, when the food..."
One time isn't that bad. You think, oh this persona actually has an entertaining story to tell about this.
But after thirty times all I want to do is rip the person's small intestines out and say "Tell me about the OTHER time you had an organ forcibly removed from your body"

Lol sounds like one of my friends.
You need both really, need somebody that talks about themselves alot, and listen, and need somebody that likes to listen alot.
But if you learn to be good listeners you'll get women

i'd get away from him asap... Unless he's your cousin or brother in which case you're trapped.

your last sentence needs to be in caps

I hate people like this >_>

Would you prefer awkward silences?
"That scythe is totally badass" "yup..." "..."
Although I know what you mean when the person has boring stories. "The other day, I ate this potato, and it was mashed, and I ate it... There were more potatos, but I didn't eat them all, the rest of my family did blah blah blah"
The best thing to do about these people is to straight up tell them "that's the dullest story I've ever heard." You'll laugh, he'll laugh, you'll both pretend you're just kidding, but he'll get the picture all the same.

This is a great idea.
The silences wouldnt be ackward, One of us would be able to tell something about the scythe.

I don't see the problem unless the stories are boring.

I can listen. Seriously. He can even do it sometimes, when he's in the mood. Unfortunately it is mostly...
"memememememememememememememememememememememememememememememememememememe"

That sounds pretty annoying. He must be completely oblivious to his own behavior or something.
|
this is why going to the mall was cool in 7th grade.
