Some people like the sound of their own voice. Others do it to destress. They aren’t doing it out of maliciousness but holy fuck be upfront about not wanting to hear more or stop complaining.
Like seriously “waaah waaah people are too socially inept to take a hint” yet then the same people are too socially inept to be upfront
Many people fail to understand that hinting isn’t communicating, it’s expecting the other person to do the heavy lifting in a relationship (friend or otherwise) for you.
You aren’t clever, or somehow above the friend, for making hints and resenting the person for not shutting up when they miss them. You’re just fucking inept at communicating.
There is literally no way to be upfront about communicating ‘I have no interest in what you are saying and wish you would stop talking’ without coming off like an asshole and/or hurting their feelings most of the time.

Please tell us how you can be upfront about this topic without sounding like an asshole, since you’re so socially apt.
How are you supposed to be upfront about something like that without coming off as rude?

I’d rather just not piss off the guy that I have to work with 40 hours a week and just move through life as easily as possible.
I usually take my frustration out by hoping they would get killed in a car wreck or something, just anything to save me from more misery.
