[QUOTE="Sarah, post: 286391, member: 6"] People who somehow manage to turn every problem into an issue about themselves. I have a colleague who is currently embroiled in a very messy love affair (an actual affair) at the minute, and it just so happens it has come at a time when I have fallen in love with someone myself. Every single time I need some advice, she manages to turn it into a story about her lover - and it is driving me to the point where I want to walk out in front of the traffic in Belfast. As long as 'Roger' is ringing her every 5 minutes she's happy as Larry, and doesn't wish to talk to me, the second 'Roger' does a vanishing act, she needs both my ears and brain. Although I can be a bit of a mouthpiece when I feel very strongly about something, I do find it a hard one to challenge. Although I did let loose a bit on her just now when 'Roger' hadn't called for a few hours, and she said 'I will be melting your head later' and I said 'Why? You haven't given me the chance to speak all day!' :scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream::scream: [/QUOTE]
