Do over friendly outgoing talkative or popular people annoy you?

It all depends. Like when I saw a man at Walmart wearing a T-Shirt that had lettering on it about training dogs to rabbit hunt to help fight Autism, and I asked him about how that all works. He was very informative about the charity to raise money to fight Autism by training dogs to rabbit hunt and hosting events and auctions to raise money/awareness to fight autism, that he had an autistic child himself and is how he got involved. I asked for a contact to donate old hunting items in great shape to the auction, and he put me in contact with the event organizer right then and there.

All good, but then he went on to tell me how he was too disabled to help or get involved any longer and went on and on about his health and disability and so on and so forth. I had to cut him off and excuse myself because it was getting mind numbing over the poor "Oh Woe is ME"!

So, it all depends upon the person and content of the conversation before I can enjoy or run away screaming what the "F"!

@cherokeepatti Yes, the same with this guy but it was more like he had a captive audience for his own woes...

I was like dude I only wanted to know about the hunting and autism thing because in my mind they did not mix well together. Wow! Was my response when I turned and walked away.

I edited the story to read better too, sometimes my thoughts just poor out and I forget to proofread. LOL.

I always love your posts and replies too Miss Patty! Bless you on your treatments as well.

@WillaKissing Thank you. I feel pretty good most of the time, better than I anticipated. No bad side effects from the chemo either, 70% have nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. My hair is falling out though. Oh well, it’s only hair. I’ve dealt with that before. I had early morning chemo today and got home about 11:30. Feeling a bit lazy from it, and taking it easy today. Will put some chicken etc in the Crock Pot for dinner. And catch up on chores tomorrow. It’s raining today and a good day to stay inside.

That woman knew she had a captive audience because I had to stand there all shift and greet people. Couldn’t walk away but I did the next best thing and turned away and kept eye contact with other customers.

@cherokeepatti God Bless you dear!

So I would like to say that I am that person. I remember how upset I was when colleagues used to get frustrated at me because I was so happy especially on a Monday morning. Apparently its not normal to be happy just because I woke up that morning. Generally I don't have problems in my life; my problems come from the interactions I have with others.

So if I annoy you. I guess that's something you need to figure out for yourself. Why are you so bitter, why choose an negative emotion instead of just minding your business?

@Mellowgirl that is refreshing to read truly <3
Generally, not if they’re also kind. I’m still rather introverted, and occasionally I need to withdraw from social situations with large crowds and talkative people because it can be overwhelming, but I recognize that as my issue rather than theirs. 🙂

I have met some real characters at the cancer center. I like the colorful ones. There was one on Wednesday that would make a fun & interesting neighbor. We exchanged stories about things that happened in our lives.

Many of my friends are talkative and outgoing and it can be a nice balance to my quietness. The problem is when people feel like they can't be quiet sometimes and have to constantly be saying something. That I find exhausting to be around.
AbbeyRhode · F
It depends. I generally enjoy friendly, talkative people. But I could do without the excessively overbearing ones, that refuse to allow you to exit a conversation once you engage with them.

@AbbeyRhode

If a conversation becomes a monologue I’m out!
AbbeyRhode · F
@Thrust Same. Sometimes I wonder if the person is that desperately lonely, or just a narcissist who loves the sound of their own voice, but either way, I have to escape from them.
Thrust · 56-60, M
@AbbeyRhode

I’m not a good enough listener to endure a monologue.

Nor would I ever want to be 😮
FreestyleArt · 36-40, M
No one. I'm always quiet while scheming for positivity to make anyone happy and respect and love one of another.


I don't care about their personal lives. You have to treat humans respect just like dogs and cats.
Not at all. Sometimes that's me and I'm always worried if annoy people so I withdraw.
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
Yes. Every overly friendly stranger is annoying and suspicious to me. That's not a good way to get to know people. It's normal to be a bit reserved when you meet someone new.
HoeBag · 46-50, F
Popular ones, no because they are typically more polite. They do not want to ruin their rep.

Talkative - as long as they are not trying to dominate the conversation. I do not people who talk while I am trying to interrupt.
riseofthemachine · 41-45, M
I was over friendly and about people wasn't the answer at all cause I ended up getting annoyed with myself
SpectralMourning · 41-45, M
Not as a general rule, I like nice people. Guess the only time it annoys is if I'm in a mood not to talk, but in those moods pretty much anyone could annoy me.
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
Not always, I feel a little inadequate, because I don't know what to say in some circumstances.
Thrust · 56-60, M
Not at all (within reason). I’m naturally introverted so they complement me well
SomeIrishPerson · 31-35, M
Not at all. I'm a very outgoing person
4meAndyou · F
I have one neighbor who is SO overly talkative that I almost want to hold up a crucifix when she walks toward me down the hall.
Thrust · 56-60, M
@Thinkerbell

Like presenting an Adam Smith book to Pics!
4meAndyou · F
@Thinkerbell I WISH it were that easy! 🤣🤣🤣
Thinkerbell · 41-45, F
@4meAndyou

Only if she is a vampire.

Can't hurt to try... 🤭
shinyplasticlove · 51-55, M
Nope. I get along with all walks if life.
No. I need them to tell me people's names!
Without these gals, who's going to tell my neighbor about my new conditioner?

Cigarguy · 41-45, M
Yes and I feel bad about it. I know they mean well but sometimes I just wish they would shut up and go back to their office

No i like those people. Kinda adore them
I don’t mind talkative people. As long as they eventually shut up. LOL
PerfectionOfTheHeart · 46-50, F
@MayorOfCrushtown Haha. One hundred percent.
No. We need those people to help the wallflowers let their hair down
NeuroticByNature · 41-45, F
Not unless I want to be left alone.
Wiseacre · F
Yes, anything “over” annoys me!
SlippingAway · 46-50, F
Only if they won't let me be
Nimbus · M
Not as much as Scousers do.
meJess · F
Just people generally
Lilymoon · F
Especially if all they talk about is themselves 😝
calicuz · 56-60, M
If they're only doing it to break the silence, then yes.
Chiefjustice · 46-50, M
Generally, no, just depends on time and place!
empanadas · 31-35, M
No only if they keep trying to get me to do something
Younameit · F
@empanadas I just wanna take a minute to talk about your car’s extended warranty sir
empanadas · 31-35, M
@Younameit this
YoMomma ·
No. Why are you a sorely jealous resentful hater?
