In situations in which you get interrupted- do people interupte each other with the same frequency that they interrupt you?
No. They don't interrupt each other. Also, I do not have a quiet voice.
What usually happens is A says something. Then I, B, reply. Quickly after I start talking C says something. Then A or D reply to C. I attempt to repeat what I tried to say, but the process starts over again. Many times, I don't get to say what I wanted until they move on to another conversation. If, at that point,I say what I had been trying to say, they tell me "we've moved on from that topic" or they just ignore and interrupt again.
This happens in various groups, not just certain people. I think there are some sort of nonverbal cues telling people when it is their turn to talk. At least I hope that is what it is. A lot of times it makes me feel like no one takes me seriously or that thy don't care to hear what I have to say. I hope it is just a nonverbal cue thing.
