We have a very very long-time friend who was my fiancé's friend first... she is married to his best friend. And she is an accomplished & exhausting monologist. lol ~sigh~ I feel your pain! She can be so overwhelming; after a bit I just shut down. They come to visit for a number of days and afterwards I need a week-long nap!

There are just some folks who are literally scared $hitless of silence, it seems. :/

Hugs,

Chyia,
