Self-Absorbed People

They talk endlessly about themselves almost as if you don’t exist.

When you do talk, they lose focus.

They emphasize with themselves not others.

  1. Cut off the oxygen.  Your attention is their oxygen.
  2. If they don’t ask about you, why continue to feed their self-absorption.
  3. They get no pass even if they are family members.  Even being in the same room or same chat with a person who makes it all about them is you encouraging them to continue.
  4. Reward people who focus on you by asking them questions about them or as it used to be called “a conversation”.
