    There is this guy in my office who is so cringe in many ways.He is not a bad human being but if he avoids few things it would be wonderful.


    He 24/7 talks about women.Initially it was funny and lightens up the office coz he is loud and comical but offlate it feels so cringe.

    He was appreciative of me and other ladies in the office and it was fine but after a point it feels like an back in high school.

    Everything we say translates to women.

    For eg if we ask about a work which needs to be done and if he spoke to the person about it..he will then relate it to a woman and start talking about it.

    I have never ever in my life met a guy in his late thirties talk about women 24/7.I wonder how his wife tolerates his jokes.

    I usually laugh it off but it is getting cringe.

    He talks and talks non stop also.

    I am thinking to just smile and not respond much from now on and take it slowly and not be blunt.


    I understand talking about guys or girls is okay but it was always “women..women..women”..


    Isn’t there not other topic he won’t talk??

    I mean I have seen men talk about sports,tv series, gadgets and once in a while women but ONLY women he talks…

    I don’t understand how the other women in my office are okay with this:.they are Americans and maybe it is common I don’t know…

    never worked with anyone who talks so much and only about girls..

    Is this normal?

    He sounds socially awkward and clueless. I would minimize interactions with him as much as possible. Communicate via email. Do not encourage chit-chat. Keep any conversation strictly about work.

    :) :roflmao:

    where do you work. You have always totally unique experiences. It would be funny to talk about it after some years. I would like to work there for may be 6 months.

    All i hear talking from men in work place,
    tech , investing, immigration and politics or just WORK .

    always serious.

    But that’s better..a mix up is fun.

    It’s not as fun to be in a place and talking about women is the only thing which is the topic of conversation.

    I feel like am back in high school and even there kids talk different subjects.

    Fun…nope it is not.

    Maybe we should exchange worlds :)

    I understand. just pulling your leg. It is annoying if it is the same obsession daily.
