[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate when I am sharing something that bothers me and someone tries to relate with their own story. It dismisses my vulnerability. [/quote] Ironically, the story-sharer is also sharing their vulnerability to share common ground, not to shut you down. If it's only one statement- no big deal- if it's an ongoing thing with this person/they have to make it all about them/tell long irrelevant stories and relive trauma, share less with a person who does this. I feel like OP's nephew is acting kind of precious. His birthday is months away from 21 and he's pressed? He might get a wake-up call that he isn't that fun to hang out with even when he is 21.[/quote]
