[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s annoying but it’s a common way for women to relate to each other conversationally. I find it got worse with my mom once she retired, but she also still tells me stories about things that happened at work 7+ years ago. My MIL is the worst with this and I blame the fact that she was a SAHM and all her kids have been out of the house for 12 years now. She doesn’t read books and doesn’t have hobbies so she doesn’t have much to talk about. But she also can’t stand to be alone or have silence so she will follow me around to house and just keep up a constant monologue about her neighbor’s new drapes or whatever. [/quote] PP, my mom is like this too. I also think it has to do with being a housewife - not enough practice socializing with others. [/quote] My MIL was a corporate vice-president and does this, too. I think these people are self-centered, period. [/quote]
