My friend only talks about herself?

Hi there! I wouldn't shut her out completely just yet.

Have you tried talking to her seriously about this? The next time she brushes something off, say something like, "actually, this is important to me. even though it's nothing too exciting, i was hoping that since we're friends, it would be important to you too. i'd appreciate it if you'd hear me out completely before we go back to you."

you might have to do this a few times until she catches on and makes a habit of listening as well as talking.

hopefully you two can sort it out, because losing a friend is always hard.

It can be a bit annoying when a friend is too self absorbed with themselves. If it's really getting on your nerves then why not confront her about it? It would only get worse later on when you keep building this up inside you. If she values you as a friend then she'll listen if not then she probably cares more about her bf then you.

I don't know if I'd call it self absorbed, she's just in love and doesn't know how to stop talking about it. It happens way more than people think and they don't realize that the people on the receiving end don't want to hear about all of that lol. You have to tell her that you really don't want to talk about this all the time. There's no need to be rude or anything, you just want to talk about something else. She can't suck up all of your time talking about her man, that's not fair to you. Ignoring the problem won't do anything unfortunately; you just have to tell her flat out that it's bothering you.

This same thing happened to me exactly. I got really angry(which is wrong for me because i never get angry) and couldn't deal with her anymore and I cried and stopped talking to her. I regretted this but I kept ignoring her because she wasn't a nice person. She got sad and asked for me to take her back as a friend and start over. I said no because it would happen again and she flipped out and we are enemies now? or she thinks we are. I don't hate her just everything is lost. I advice you to just talk about it with her, if she gets angry shes not worth keeping as a friend.

Talk to her about it. She has absolutely no idea that her behavior is annoying you. She probably thinks you enjoy listening to her stories. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the way you reacted, ignoring would be the first reaction for most of the people. But you need to remember she is your friend. After having talked to her about how you feel and how her self absorbing nature bothers you, if she is really your friend, she would understand you. Being the good person yourself, do not ignore her. It would just be like adding fuel to your problems and you might also lose a friend and that is not something you would want. I hope you sort it out with your friend. Good luck :)
