What should you do about people who....?

Question

... ask you lots of questions but when you ask them something, you get vague answers? I have a coworker who does that. And at times I've noticed she'll ask lots of things but when you really begin to talk to her, she appears uninterested. Why even ask when you don't care to listen?

Answer 1

" make " them listen to the answer no matter wat happens .......they will stop asking u ( make sure tht u give full details amd then bore them to dead lol......i would do tht)

Answer 2

I have noticed this behavior in some people.  Personally, I just withdraw from the conversation.  

Answer 3

People love to talk about themselves and get feedback from others about themselves.  Some people just don't have enough tact to even act interested in anyone else or anything that dosn't directly involve them.

Answer 4

Just give a smile and tell them you are too busy to have a chat with them.  If they ask something that you feel you do not want to talk about, ask them why they need to know that.  

Answer 5

I never have been able to figure that out. When I notice someone losing interest after having asked a question, I just stop mid sentence and walk away, I don;t waste my time any more.
