Have you tried walking away as soon as you say that? And then if she starts talking again, just wave and say next time, or something?

That just feels a bit rude? I don't know.

It's not rude! You have other things to do!

A little, but I think it's downplayed if you smile/wave/tell them you'll hear more tomorrow/next time/whatever...but I think if they don't get normal social cues, the next best thing is to be as direct as possible.

I don't really think it's rude. It's insistent and sometimes you just have to be that way. I can't tell you how many times I've been caught by a coworker who just wouldn't let up. Finally I just had to let her get to a pause, say "that's nice (or something appropriate), have a great night" and just go.

And yeah at first it felt a litttle more abrupt than I'm generally comfortable being but I got over it and it ended up way better than being bel hostage in a conversation I don't want to be in.
