Some talks are exhausting.
"...the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue amongst our members, that it defileth the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire of hell."
I beat out fires all around me after talks with particular persons in my life. Whew weee

It taxes me sometimes, too, being around some personality types. When I was younger, I thought there was something wrong with me if I avoided people who seemed to not only talk too much, but disclosed information that I really shouldn't know about. They seem to spray energy everywhere when you interact with them, and it forces the listener to spend their own energy to keep up.
That was before I really learned about oversharing, and how it's likely part of a larger character issue on the oversharer's side, not mine. My avoidance with those types of people was instinctual reaction on my part.
I don't know if that's what you are thinking of specifically, but that's immediately what came to mind.

Solid answer, Jay. I can't improve on that, except to note that, in my youth, I was one of those who talked way too much. Lots of regret there.
