Now I realize it's just compulsive with some people.

Do I ever want to talk to him? No, not really, (the things he wants to talk about are of no interest to me) but he thinks we are friends. Did you ever meet someone who starts talking to you non-stop and then because you are polite enough to listen, they think you're a friend?
Ummmm ... if he is not your friend, and you have no interest in talking to him, then why is he at your house? Or are you in an Internet Cafe?
