Have you ever had a friend that just doesn't care whether you're listening to them or not? Where they just keep talking, and even if you leave the room and can't hear them, you come back to find that they've continued talking and hadn't even noticed that you'd stepped out for a second? Where they're just talking for themselves and don't seem to give a s*** about the exchange that a conversation is supposed to be? Where while they're explaining something to you and you've heard it a million times before from them and you try to interject your own opinion and they just talk over you like you never opened your mouth? What the hell is that about?

I like those people 'cause I'm not much of a responder anyway. ;D

To be completely fair, I can be one of those people a lot myself, but this particular friend is way worse than me. Absolutely no comprehension of anything other than what's coming out of her own mouth.

You've created a fine analogy for much of internet forum behavior. Well done.

Internet behavior doesn't matter, I'm talking about rl, the s*** that matters. I love this girl to death, I think she's awesome and funny...but I think she thinks she is way more than I do. Only her words count. It's starting to piss me off.

The person is extremely unlikely to change if what you describe is standard practice for her. Take it or leave it. Narcissists are almost always "awesome and funny".

I don't know anyone like that... That would annoy me.
I do have a friend (funnily enough, a good friend) who has a nasty habit of not listening and zoning off though. He puts himself on autopilot and acts like he's listening to people, saying "uh huh... yeah.. oh?..." a lot, but really, he's ignoring you.

I' have not met anybody who continually talks if your listening or not.
But I have met people who tell you the same story again & again, & aUber Happy frilly pink unicorn who was stuffed to the eyeballs with anti-depressants.
