I went into Vancouver to my meeting I go to once a month, and we got 4 new members to day. One of them is a pushy know it all. She doesn't know any thing about us, but as each person went around the table, she would interrupt and ask personal questions. and give unsolicited advise that was completely out of place. Apparently we are all wrong and not to worry as she will have us on the right track very soon. I am not even sure if I want to go back, but I was getting a lot of support and information . Possibly our facilitator will get her to take it easy but it doesn't sound like this is going to be a easy thing to do. I am the point where I will strangle her if she interrupts once more. Could be interesting next month.

A know-it-all person is pretty annoying. I see, next month is kinda intersting for you. You better tell her to stop bugging and pestering around. Tell her she's not amusing and just an annoyance..hehe.LOL.
No, seriuosly, I don't know how to deal with such kind of behavior but being honest to her I think is polite and fair enough.

My mom is a know it all and nobody can stand her attitude. I am use to it so I just keep my mouth shut because once I voice out my opinion, it's pretty much useless because she like's to push her belief in you. I love her though, but this is something I really hate about her. Maybe there's something wrong with your friend that's why she's like that, I hope you guys don't get into a fight, hope you could stretch you patience longer:)

UGH! I hate it when people act like that. The sad thing is, is that most of those kind of people think that they are being helpful! Just makes ya want to string them up by their toenails from the nearest tree!! LOL. I would go to the facilitator if that person starts up at the next meeting and just mention how uncomfortable it is making you feel. Maybe it can be worked out that way. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you.
