Housemate draining me

    I moved into a house at the start of the month with a girl who I have a good few mutual friends with, but had met personally just once or twice.

    The thing is she is extremely draining. She spends a lot of time talking about herself, telling me different stories, about different times, about different people I don't know. Then if I try to talk, it becomes plainly obvious she isn't interested and isn't listening to me. The thing is we don't even fully click, we're quite different, so this makes it even more uncomfortable and tiring. She just talks at me, all the time.

    The other day after she left the house I was exhausted and had a banging headache. That's when I realised enough is enough, but I really need some advice on what I should do. It's difficult because we share a space so inevitably I will be spending time with her, and we know each other and have mutual friends so I don't feel I can have a "we just live together but don't need to be friends" arrangement with her.

    Any thoughts or advice?
