If I don't interupt then I forget what I wanted to say.

If I get interrupted I never get to make a point.

When I talk I like to lay out where I'm coming from. Sometimes I need 2 or 3 sentences to make my point. Most people interrupt me in the middle of sentence 1. I don't bother saying things like "what I actually wanted to say is ..." because then I'm interrupted in the middle of sentence 2.

I hate talking to people. I never interrupt people. I guess people think I have the wildest beliefs and opinions because they never get to hear what I actually want to say.

I get what your saying, I think you're just got to find the people that share your interests and actually want to listen to what you want to say.

Also just skip to the juicy part, in a fast paced conversation I don't really have the patience to wait for people to go through their preliminaries.
