Yes, not sure if I am doing it more now than I used to.
It bothers me when someone has heard me!

Cherrytree, heck!

Frequently

I m laughing out loud, thank God we re all as mad as each other, I find myself doing it often. I put it down to living on my own, worst is I kinda chat to myself when I m riding my cycle and if someone overtakes me I have to quickly turn it in a little song

I always knew it! Talking to yourself makes you smarter

My name is Nina and I talk to myself......a lot
Was sitting in the car alone the other day window open and commented to myself about another drivers stupid manoeuvre. A gent walking passed bent down looked in the window smiled and agreed blush

Yes, definitely yes. Well I actually say I am talking to the dogs but I quite often hold quite a conversation with myself, out loud mostly. Well that way I get the answer I want I suppose.

Don't talk to myself but do greet the cats, doesn't everyone? Have been known to say hello to a pair of trainers in the hall thinking it was a cat. It was a bit dark. DH seems to have whole conversations with himself, probably gets more sense than when talking to me.

All the time, sometimes out loud - sometimes in my head. I talk to my teenage son, as well as dogs, cats, and plants. As someone else said, the latter three pay more attention than teen boy

NonnaW Fri 09-Sept-16 14:51:10

Sensible, even!

NonnaW Fri 09-Sept-16 14:50:44

Yes, I like talking to snsible people smile.

tanith Fri 09-Sept-16 14:48:41

Yes I do it when I'm walking or in the bathroom blush

Lona Fri 09-Sept-16 14:47:03

Oh yes, all the time, and I always have the last word!

Maggiemaybe Fri 09-Sept-16 14:42:29

Every time I talk to DH I know I am talking to myself. I'm with you there, Pollengran.

I thought I was talking to my cat the other day. It turned out I was having a one-sided conversation with my black and white handbag blush

hildajenniJ Fri 09-Sept-16 14:35:29

I'm by myself for long periods. I chat away to myself all the time. Usually I address the dog, but I'm not really talking to her.

merlotgran Fri 09-Sept-16 14:33:39

Yes, in the car.

It's usually things like, 'Bugger, I've forgotten the shopping list!' or 'Shall I fill up with petrol now or do it on the way home?'

I must do it more than I realise at home though because DH will often say, 'What's that?' to which I reply, 'Oh,nothing.' hmm

Pollengran Fri 09-Sept-16 14:24:06

Yes! Every time I talk to DH I know I am talking to myself. I also talk to the cats, but at least they listen.

MiniMouse Fri 09-Sept-16 14:23:01

I talk to the cat and plants, and nag myself (because my name is MiniM and I'm a procrastinator)blush

Cherrytree59 Fri 09-Sept-16 14:19:26

Yes was actually cursing just a few minutes ago.
And what my DH calls chuntering

In my defence have just got enormous bill from phone provider.
I've been hacked angry

Charleygirl Fri 09-Sept-16 14:11:58

Eh no- my cat maybe!

phoenix Fri 09-Sept-16 13:55:20

Frequently!

BlueBelle Fri 09-Sept-16 13:50:53

Maybe I am the only one but maybe not
Do you ever talk to yourself?
