    He just won't shut up help.

    Somebody please tell me what to do to get this guy off my back.

    He keeps on talking to me. He just rambles on and on about his life and how he likes naruto. He doesn't speak English very well and he's a year younger.

    He's really nice, but whenever I'm online he keeps talking to me and it's really annoying because the conversation he makes is very one-sided and meaningless. I don't know what to do. He's really nice so I can't be mean to him but I don't want to talk to him and he doesn't get the hint when I DON'T REPLY or when I say I'm busy.

    I can't even end conversations because he just keeps going. And talking. Help.

    And no, he's not interested in me. He just likes to talk. It's not even like regular two-sided conversation, sometimes he asks me how I am and I reply "sick" and he doesn't even respond to that. He just talks about naruto. Honestly.

    example: (red is me, blue is him)

    (him)
    hi


    11:10pm
    (me)
    hi


    11:10pm

    He just keeps talking to me. Every day. Whenever he sees me online. It's annoying and I want him to stop, i've played the "I'm busy" card too many times. Please help. moan.



    Edit: More examples, and you will see why he is (unintentionally) the most annoying person to exist on earth.

    Are you using Facebook? The format kind of looks like that
    in that case
    go to the settings wheel on your chat
    Advanced settings
    Put his name in "Appear on chat for all friends except"

    I can't do that because I like a lot of posts and comment on stuff.

    Whenever there's any activity on my end, he starts to talk to me.


    ~~~~~

    && that's not all he talks about though I wish it were that simple. ANd even if I did I get the feeling he wouldn't care and keep talking about naruto anyway.

    Tell him you had suddenly caught a new rare disease, if you hear anything about Naruto again your brain will have a hemorrhage and you'll die.
    That's not mean.
    Then if he still does, hes being mean, and that gives you the okay to be mean back.

    Okay, serious talk now.

    Avoidance and excuses are not the answer. This guy is a nice guy, you say?
    Do you want nothing to do with him, or occasional meaningful convos?

    Depending on his level of comprehension of English, you should just be frank and talk to him about this. Tell him you're bored or a little annoyed at his pointless chatter, and if he wants to talk to you, he should bring up relevant, two-sided topics instead of rambling about himself. Make it simple for him to understand if English is not up to par.

    Might be better if you see him regularly to tell him in-person, to set things straight and if he has any concerns, he can tell you then and there. Online confrontation makes things impersonal, he may take it the wrong way (or no way at all), begin to brood, or make things awkward when he sees you in reality.

    These things are never easy to bring up, but you're only prolonging your self-torture and falsely strengthening the *friendship* he thinks you two have until the day one something worse happens. Be semi-formal when you confront him, not too strict like a lawyer, or lax like a buddy, or else he'll joke it off.

    I am also surprised at how oblivious he is at your replies.
    If someone I talked to regularly replied only with "", I'd know they're not interested or I'd ask them yo wtf?

    Thanks Mod. Was helpful. I guess I gotta tell him some day.

    don't mind conversations, but his conversations suck. That's all.
