He never stops talking !

[quaylock]

Possibly light, but my first outing as a single woman after being married to a virtually silent man for twenty years , and the first man I meet doesn't stop talking save to take a breath. The one thing I really looked forward to in my future was a man who was chatty and interesting and engaging. This man is all of these things but boy, can he talk? It's phone only at the moment , for hours at a time .
I find it a little tiring but do really like him. Any advice or experiences please?

If it’s only been a few days, I’d be careful he is not love bombing or just too much too soon.

He sounds far too full on. Will just get even more annoying and exhausting. I'd ditch him now.

Thanks pps. Food for thought .

Just a word of warning I've been with my DP 3 years and he is like this. He is completely self absorbed, I cant get a word in. If I do say something he turns it round and makes it about him or he just skims over it. He hasn't always been like this, sometimes he's a great listener but 9/10 he isnt. It's very draining. At first I was attentive and a good listener but I think he misread this and took as I had nothing to say, or had no objections, so to speak, and has now become an ego monster.

I shared some good news with him this week and he just washed over it. It was very hurtful, now I'm at a point where I dont feel cared for at all.

Speak now or forever hold your peace as they say!

I find these people who won't shut the fuck up to be self-absorbed, selfish, controlling, arrogant, and clueless.
