Well, I guess just showing her your 2+2 thread is one way of being honest with her without having to talk to her...

I assume all you guys who always chime in and say "just break up" are all single, right? Cuz pretty much every girl is like this, and if she's not she's just bottling it up for a big explosion later.

She needs to go out for drinks after work with her coworkers or girlfriends...

You can't fix this problem without someone else taking on the burden =)

Windows Key + D closes all windows and shows the desktop. Learn to hit that quickly. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

As for your original problem, it takes training. My wife used to bother me with that stuff all the time. But years of ignoring her has resulted in her not even bothering with it anymore.

Seriously though, the worst part is that she expects me to do the same thing. She'll say, "Why don't you tell me about your day?" She doesn't get the fact that I do the same stuff everyday with the same co-workers. Nothing interesting happened.

Do I always chime in and say this? Yes I am single because my ex wife was like this. She is going to explode whether you listen or not because at some point it's going to be;

You pretending like you're listening + that time of month + her figuring out you;re not listening = KABOOM

Not all chicks are like this. Sorry. But if you can't put up with it now it's not like it's going to get any better.

Huh you showed her the thread. Huh. I just can't wrap my head around that one.

I think the only good advice you will get is that you should find someone else to listen to her bitch. Just don't use my strategy, which is to simply point out all the hyperbole and exageration in everything she says.

Yeah, pointing out that her coworkers are actually just fine and she's being totally unreasonable is not a good idea either.

The real solution is to get her some good girlfriends. Guys don't want to hear all this [censored], and girls love to blab to each other. I don't have any great ideas for how to help her make friends, though.

Say "no!" in a firm tone and spray her with water until she learns to stop the offending behavior. But seriously, she's associating all the bad things in her day with your face so just refuse to let her bitch about stuff unless something really crazy happened.
