They so much drain energy from you. So hard to be around.

I have a few people in my life who need an audience to talk through to their solution. I just let them talk until they figure out want they want to do. They have no need for my input. While I'm happy to oblige, sitting through these sessions is not easy for me. Why can't they just run things through their mind by themselves? Like I do.

But those with meaningless verbal diarrhea, best to limit contact. One needs to protect oneself.
