I get what everyone is saying about it being offensive but with my friends i complain that im bored all the time! im always like 'im bored!' sometimes i even joke with guys to entertain me i say im bored when my friends and i arent doing anything not if we r doing something just if were like sitting there. i complain a lot and know this :P but if its a friend dont just think their being rude they might just be joking around that they want something to do. :)

Yes it is offensive! generally people find things boring if they just arent "clicking" with wateva is goin on...however, there are days that are just plain boring!! but no person is boring, just different is all. If you feel that a little self-reconstruction is in order try "7 habbits for Highly Efficient Teens" by Sean Covey... its a good one! ;D

I don't know if your interesting or not, but
2 boring people can't possible be interesting when around each other. If 1 person is interesting, and the other is dull, then a conversation, or activity can become boring because its hard for 1 person to be interesting all the time. If they have nothing in common, or their personalities clash it might be harder to have fun around each other, no matter how hard each of them try.

Yes it is VERY rude to say someone is boring, uninteresting, or show signs of it by ignoring them, or not really paying attention. It hurts peoples self esteem, a lot.

I'd take it more as an insult, that they were saying you were boring. It's pretty much saying that you can't keep them entertained or think of anything interesting to do or say. Rarely do they mean that they think they are boring themselves.
