People always tell me I talk too much. But I have things to say and I want other people to hear them. How do you feel about this ?

Some people like to talk too much. I am a person who likes to talk a lot. I have so many friends and we use to talk about varoious things. One of us will start and gradually it grows to a big discussion. But in my opinion, a person who talks too much is a good listener too. Do you talk too much. what is your view about talking too much?

I don't talk that much. I tend to talk a lot more openly with people who I am comfortable with. I notice a lot of people will start conversations with strangers, but I'm not that type. My thinking on that is you don't know what type of person that is. My family tends to talk to me a lot-a little too much. They're always saying what they're going to do, or their problems, and it is so annoying. I also notice that if you don't know a person very well, and you just listen to them, they'll tell on themselves. I didn't have to waste my time getting to know someone to find out they have no morals, or are bad people in general. I learned this while working.

No. Everyone that I meet tells me that I don't talk enough. So I just stare at them like it's their problem, lol. I don't really like talking, especially about myself. I guess it's either a quirk or I'm just a closed book. Once you get to know me I'll open up of course, but other than that I'm a quiet person.

IT depends on where I am and who I am with. Sometimes I talk a lot of I have a lot of friends around me and we are holding a good conversation. But if I am around a lot of new people, I am really quiet and shy till I warm up.

I get told this all the time. I don't know, I think I do have a problem with being unable to not interject my opinion into something. And at other times, I'll say stuff that is totally random and people are like "what?" I'm also known for sometimes saying something in a romantic situation that tends to kill a mood. Yeah. My mouth is sometimes my worst enemy...

I have been known to talk to much and I know it. My grandpa used to tell me that I need to slow down his ears are on fire.

I talk waaay too much! But I feel the same way--I have things to say and I want people to hear them! My big mouth has gotten me in trouble millions of times. Instead, I've learned to write things down. That way, I can polish them and perfect them and then expose them to the world. I have a lot to say so it makes for a lot of written material. Actually, lately I've been selling my writing to AssociatedContent.com and Helium.com. My name is Megan Deroche, look for me there. Also Mylot is a good way to say the things you want to say because people will not only hear them but they will respond and you can get paid (a small amount at least).
