Some people (especially neurodivergent people) do this not to "make it about them" but as a way of showing empathy, and kind of "I can relate". As someone who does this, realises - sometimes way after the conversation is over - and tries not to, I do understand it can be annoying. Hopefully a different perspective on what they might be trying to achieve could make it less irritating? I regularly review conversations in hindsight and cringe.
3M 7 Jan 9:51am, 7 Jan 2025 25,486 posts	0 3M @Carpathius, the gentleman in question isn't neurodivergent. He's just very self centred and not terribly self aware! He loves to talk, not to listen. But I get your point. And even those of us who are not ND regularly review conversations and cringe at our words!
