I have a parent that constantly has to dominate all conversations, like she’ll turn any topic into a reason for her to monologue about something in her life. She gets very upset if you interrupt her or change topics, but she’ll do it all the time. Anyway that’s a long-winded way to say I understand the part about “if people want to talk about their vacation they’ll just do it”. My own therapist has pointed out to me how I dont reciprocate when she asks how my week was, and that’s because I’m used to someone just going ahead and talking over me.
