How do you handle an incessant talker?

D1’s BF likes to talk and used to go on non stop until I told D1 to have a word with him. I was coaching him for interviews and I had to say, “Keep your answers short, after you say something, take a breath, look at the interviewer for few seconds to see if he/she wants to say something.” “And by the way, that’s how you should have conversation with people socially too.” He is much better around me now. In the beginning, I used to give D1 looks. The funny thing is D1 is also a talker, so I wondered who got to talk in their relationship.
