I have a friend here who always ask and when you start to answer her query she will interrupt and explain the answer to her Q....sounds silly but it's true. Do you know a person with this kind of behavior? She's a bit ....hmmm you know what I mean ...

Hi Friend , Really a silly thing to do but this kind of people always wants to show themselves superior.I too came across many times as I used to teach .Some times some students used to ask me questions like for which they already know the answer since I knew that he knows the answer I used to ask him to explain whatever he knows to the rest of the students,by this I simply put the ball in his court and at the end when he finishes I used to tell him that why did you asked the question while you know the answer and warn him not to spoil my time like this in future.

Boastful? do you mean she is boastful? hahahahahahaha. I do have met that kind of person before, and she was a former classmate in college. I do not know how to call her actually, for me she is boastful, or I guess there is a right term to call her. I don't know what is nagmamagaling in English hahahhahaha. My classmate stands like she know it all, that she wants you to feel ashame that she knows it all. She is over confident. What is the sense of asking question if you know the answer, or you have doubts about your answer? I am not friendly to this kind of people, I don't like them. Although I don't like them I don't let it show.

Not that exactly. But my husband will ask me something, and when I give my opinion or answer... he'll say no, its not that way and tell me his "way" or his answer and get mad if I say anything else. I say, "well crap, if you didn't want my opinion, why'd you ask?" He says I just don't understand the question...

I don't I have friend like you mentioned! It's kind silly. But sometimes I asked question during the middle of conversation, I kind found the answer myself. Or maybe sometimes she just want to start a conversation, she should just keep the answer if she want the conversation continue. I think if she kept doing that, people just not like it!

I agree! Better to keep your mouth close in case like you already know the answer then do not interrupt.
