I think we've all had a few of these!

*sigh* Unfortunatly I recognise the whiner, but closely related is an ex mate, the Martyr.

Save me from no.6!!!!!!!!!!

I have several "Yakker" friends. I'm glad I'm not on the top of their "I need to call you to tell you this" list....They'll just relay it to me to my face if and when I see them. (And they're the ones that tell me to talk more)

[Phoenix Blue]

They should have added the busy-body to the list. . .

I gave birth to a Yakker.........Any Mother should be glad her 24yr old son calls and talks to her, and believe me, I am!!!! but he talks and talks and talks..... Goddess don't let him stop, but I say uh huh, uh huh a lot and don't have a clue as to what he is saying....................

I've had a whiner or two.. and a kind of leech - but the kind that asks how you are just so you'll say "fine how are you" and then they can try to leech pity off you by being the whiner ;)

[Flaire-FireStar]

*cowers from yakkers* The one talks endlessly about her 7 (yes, I said seven ) boyfriends. :blushake:

I also used to have a dumper...but I dumped her. :p (And the "friend" she dumped me for) :rolleyes:

Then it becomes a fun contest!:D

Boy Oh Boy have I had a few friends that fall into those catagories. My friend i had when i was going through my divorce was the dumper/leech. She call up to "get me out of the house then a half hour after she was supposed to be over she'd call and say "oh sorry so-in-so is gonna buy me something if i go with them"
Gee I don't buy my friends, needless to say I got a new friends after many times forgiving her for that.
I work with the advisor, the one who tells everybody what's wrong in thier life, but who if the same things are happening to her "that's different".

[MammaStar]

She's not a friend, but actually a friend's wife, she's definitely a "Bragger". My sis in law & I call her the "one uper" *sigh*

[Flar's Freyja]

I seem to attract Whiners that always want advice.....but have no intention of even considering it. Why ask:huh:

[Scarlettvixen]

i sat there and read the list and decided that one acquaintaince fitted 5 of the 7 catergories - she thinks shes my best mate, but i avoid her lol

[shnen]

ugh.. leeches are my curse! both ex-fi's and soo many friends I've dumped cuz of leeching...

its funny as I read through those, a whole spread of people I know went through my mind.. whew, make you happy to be rid of them! :)

[WandererInGray]

*grins* Honestly I'm not trying to brag, but I don't think any of my friends match any of that list. (;) Course it's easier when you only have a couple)

I do *work* with several people like those mentioned, though.

[Radocs]

I know a whiner and a bragger. I avoid these people as often as I can. >_<

[Wicce]

Ugh, I dated a Whiner...if he accidently spilled his orange juice in the morning, it would be a bad YEAR.
