[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is really annoying to ask someone how they’re doing and they immediately start talking about someone else. There’s definitely a type. This is the girl who would have responded to the same question gushing about her boyfriend. Then fiancé/husband. As she gets older her focus becomes the kids. My eyes glaze over and I immediately regret asking. If it happens consistently, I will avoid talking to you. (And FYI, so does everyone else. If you wonder why your career is stagnating, this is definitely a factor.) [/quote] You sound overly dramatic and sour at the same time. [/quote] Nobody wants to hear you gush about your closest relation. Think of it as the Bechdel test 2.0. If you can’t have a conversation without mentioning your children, you fail. If you’re engaged and every single conversation is about your fiancé, you fail. [/quote]
