How do you deal with people's excessive need to fill every

Open carry a big bore revolver.

Nobody will ever bug you again.

Today she heard me get home from work and I was having time to myself. She knocked on my door to ask if I wanted to come drink coffee in the kitchen with her

I used one word answers, kept saying I was tired and stared at my feet until she left

>>17856202
Haha if only that was an option in the UK

>>17856196
I know this feel. I don't think there's much you can do without being outright rude/hostile

>>17856205
Yeah, that's the problem. I want her to be quiet because she respects that I'm introverted/tired/whatever, not because she hates me

I tried being polite and she still asked me pointless questions

>>17856196
That's how some people are, how long have you been living with that person? Eventually they just get tired if you respond with a couple words only.

Maybe just get a "do not disturb" sign for your door, make a little joke out of it? Extroverts often just don't get it, but tell her that you need your own private space where nobody's gonna bug you

I live with a roommate, and he leaves me alone when I've got my door closed. But if I venture out for food or to use the bathroom, he'll talk my ear off for 3 hours and tell the same stories every day... he's a close friend but it's just too much sometimes. I just don't have enough polite non-responses to get me through those conversations

Only since September, I'm in uni halls so didn't have a choice who to move in with and I'm finding it all a bit exhausting

>>17856239
That's a good idea, thanks! Luckily those in the flat I'm friends with will text me before coming by but she doesn't quite get it yet
