When you are in the same group of people on a regular basis, and there's a girl you like in this group, but there's also a guy that HAS to dominate the conversation at all times in the group. How do you deal with this? If you say something he will break you off. If you don't say something he will just talk and talk and you really have to fight to get the word. Should I lower my self to his level and try to be even more dominating than him? Or just shut up? It's so annoying..
