We’ve all known people who are charismatic: They seem to light up the room when they walk in. And, when you interact with them, you come away feeling good and energized. On the flip side are people who are bores: They suck the life out of the room, their conversation is tedious, and you can’t wait to get away from them.

Here are 5 signs of a boring person.

Negativity. Nothing is more boring than a person who always sees the negative side of things—a person who complains constantly. Every time you try to bring up something positive (“Don’t you just love amusement parks?”), the bore complains about it (“too crowded, expensive, dirty…”). Superficial. The bore doesn’t engage in deep conversation. Instead, the boring person talks too much about unimportant things (e.g., the weather), or repeats the same things over and over. It’s impossible to make any sort of real “connection” with someone like that. Impassive. Unexpressive, speaks in a monotone, doesn’t make eye contact, seems completely disengaged—this is a sure sign of a bore. Self-centered. Boring persons talk too much about themselves and show little interest in others. The self-centered bore holds the floor too long, is long-winded, and when telling a story takes forever to make a point. Predictable. Boring people are predictable. They use too many tired cliches. They agree too readily and too often, and they rarely express any strong opinions of their own. Bores can sometimes be overly-solicitous—they appear too nice, always complimenting others over and over again. So, is a bore hopelessly sentenced to a life of exclusion and loneliness? Of course not. Any bore can turn it around by developing better conversational skills—becoming a better listener, learning how to take turns effectively and not dominate a conversation, preparing stimulating topics or stories beforehand. In short, becoming a bit more charismatic. My friend and former colleague, the late Bernie Carducci, wrote a book called: The Pocket Guide to Making Successful Small Talk: How to Talk to Anyone Anytime Anywhere About Anything. He suggests that anyone can develop the ability to be a more interesting conversationalist—to develop, as Bernie says, "the gift of gab."

Do girls get more wet when they finish?

This is totally normal — it's called female ejaculation. About 10 percent of women sometimes spurt a clear fluid from the urethra during intense sexual excitement or during orgasm. This fluid is very similar to the fluid produced by the prostate gland in men — it isn't urine.

Is it normal for girls to release fluid during an orgasm? By Amy @ Planned Parenthood | Oct. 22, 2010, 5:21 p.m. Category: Share This Twitter

It doesn’t usually happen, but every now and then when I experience a really intense orgasm, I release a clear, nearly odorless liquid, there is a lot of it. Is it urine? I can’t get myself to ask anyone about it in person, but could I have a problem?

This is totally normal — it’s called female ejaculation. About 10 percent of women sometimes spurt a clear fluid from the urethra during intense sexual excitement or during orgasm. This fluid is very similar to the fluid produced by the prostate gland in men — it isn’t urine. The “prostatic” fluid in women is secreted by the Skene’s glands, which are located in the vulva near the opening of the urethra. These glands, though much smaller than the male prostate, are similar enough in function that some scientists have renamed them “female prostate” glands. Other glands may also be involved in female ejaculation.
