Just the same used to happen to me. Then I started to take charge of my life.

I learn to say no. I throw away people making only noises. I cut all the craps from my life. Alone and contented, I am much better than my past. And when i do find good listeners, there is some significant talk.

You also need to make some short witty satirical comments in between, to shake them, like Mark Twain's.
