Does anyone know how it feels to be talked at?

[SinnamonFairbanks]

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? it's like you could check out of the conversation and the idiot talking would have no idea. It's almost like I could put my head phones in and smile and nod and they would have no idea.

I guess not everyone can be intriguing. I've just never had to put up with so many uninteresting people in my entire career as I have lately. I have a few clients that want to spend the entire session bragging about how much money they make, how influential they are, all the things they own, how great their life is, how they can get any woman they want. Everything they say contradicts something they said earlier. The fact that they are even seeing me contradicts a lot of things. If I'm being paid to be around them for an hour and I can't stand it...I doubt any normal woman would.

I'm unimpressed by the bragging and blatant lying... I really don't care what the guy pulled up in or how much money.

One of them gets his stories mixed up all the time. He talks and talks and talks, about nothing. It's really hard to want to go and fill an hour with someone like that.

Motormouth: It's a total mood killer.

In my line of work I get that alot. my Mom always said "to be a good liar you have to have a good memory" Men will come to you for more than just sex, some need their egos boosted, others are just plain lonely. I dont understand why a man would lie to an sp, theres no need to impress her the deal is closed when you hand over the envelope. The very nature of your work makes you pretty good at spotting bullshit and if some of these dummys would realize this, your hour would go alot faster and your eyes wouldnt glaze over when there talking. If its getting to you a little too much, take a break for a bit, it might be better than trying to smother him with a pillow

Do you have any idea how much money I make? How many cars, boats, and planes I own? I'm so rich that my winter beater is a Porsche, I use $100 bills as toilet paper, and Warren Buffett asks me for financial advice.

Yes, sadly guys as rich as me never have to brag, I just bring it up in case you are wondering who's solid gold Rolls Royce in idling in front of your place or I leave my diamond encrusted platinum Rolex in the bathroom .. you will know who to call.

Am I rich ?? ... well I pay JamesDouglas (above) as one of my butlers so I guess the list of cars, residences, movie stars, private planes, the yaughts (one for each ocean) should be obvious.

That said .. in case you are wondering ... the Ferrari is in the garage - so I borrowed the 1982 Corolla to get to your place. It's almost Halloween and I'm wearing my costume today - my disguise is Wal-Mart customer. The reason I counted the last $3 dollars I owe you in loose change is that I left my wallet in the Tuxedo.

 

[Mervyn]

I don't think those people are trying to impress you so much as trying to build up their own egos.

 

[SinnamonFairbanks]

You guys are funny.

It would be nice to pass at least one of them along to someone else.
Madonna, I would send them your way. But there is a 2 hour drive between us.

Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton and Scarlett Johansen all want to fuck me.

Just tell Fuji that its not worth it for you, even for $250.

Out of curiousity, out of ten clients you see, how many would be like this.

 

[Young_City]

I agree with Mr. Deeds. To be completely honest, when I was younger, I'd go to strip club just to have my ego stroked. I mean, how many places can most guys go and have beautiful women approach them?

But I digress. This is something I've noticed with a few friends and family; they won't wait until I'm even finished and then go on and on. Many times I zone out after a few minutes and it's obvious I'm not paying attention, yet they keep going on.

Here is my advice to you. If this happens with a client, just sit, smile, act entertained, keep telling him how impressed you are, and be glad that a guy like that only wants to talk. What amazes me about the men you described is how they don't even know they are contradicting themselves...

I already had them:eyebrows:

Oh boy do I know this feeling. Honestly, my wife just talks "at" me and not with me. She doesn't brag, but besides that I know exactly how you feel. She just talks and never listens, or asks anything about me. She makes it painfully obvious that she has no interest in anything I have to say, and steers the conversation back to herself. It is truly an awful experience and existence.

ROLFMAO ! You made my day.

 

[johnbeverley]

I want to point out that the lie is not a guy thing only. It also applies to ladies.

I once was approached by a lady. She asked me to help her with "her" car which was a piece of junk. The next sentence that came out of her mouth was "That is not my car. I left my Ferrari at home".

Yup, maybe he needs to build his own self esteem up and no one else will listen. That is why we are called 'service providers' after all. Listening is a service

I've spent several years working at TIFF.

Part of my job is to say no to people.

Do you have any idea how many times I've heard the phrase "Do you know who I am?"

My favorite has always been to say nope.....and watch the reaction.

Nothing makes a person feel quite so insignificant as when they are merely a sounding board. I have had people talk at me for hours and not once ask how I am or how my family is doing. After a while we just stop listening and if it goes on too long we stop caring altogether. It sucks.
