my annoyng mate


Question Posted Monday March 13 2006, 10:54 am

Well, alot of the time, me and my mate get into these conversations about really simple things like whether you should wear moisturiser or not, or whether certain earrings look tarty, and i listen to what she has to say and everything, but she just has to be right all the time! She wont listen to me or my mates views, and it really annoys me, cos i try to talk, to say what i think about something and she says "God, will you stop going on about it" when shes the one whos been talking about it for ages, and if i say "But i'm just trying to say what i think", she cuts me off and starts telling me i'm really stressy! What do you think about it all? Do you think she is competitive, or what? What should i do?

she seems like she wants you all to be lemmings and follow what she says.. i think you need to let her know that its not okay to just yell at everyone else because they dont agree with her. also there might be some problems shes not telling anyone about maybe she has grown up with parents that only had 1 opinon on everything and never taught her that there will always be another answer to things

I know exactly what you are talking about when it comes to having to live with a person who can't go wrong about anything. It is very annouying.

I don't know how you both are realy mates, but if I were in your situation, I'd get out of it.

But if you can't, I suggest the next time she starts a simple conversation, just say, "I do want to talk about it, but I can't if you keep cutting me off and putting down my opinions." And if she starts to do it again, just say, "See, you are doing it again, I'm not being stressy, I'm telling you my opinion, if you can speak your mind, why can't I without you telling me that I'm wrong?"

You also need to tell her that she doesn't realize that she's the one going on about a topic and it's not you because you're too busy being cut off again.

Thats how bad it is to live with people like that. It's enough to make you leave. Her type is just someone who thinks that all that matters is what THEY think and everyone should listen to THEM because they think they are God or something. But she'll realize that she isn't god, and that she needs to grow up.
