I have a friend at church who doesn't really listen. She just "assumes". Most of the time, I find her assumptions are wrong. I no longer try to correct her. I also don't really talk to her anymore. I'm polite, but I don't tell her that the furnace is broken or the car needs repair. A listening ear and a promise to pray for us would be nice. I appreciate that I can get those here.

Yah the machine was running too fast. lol
I know how you feel though, been there, done that. Next time someone talks over you, just go HUH? I didn't hear you cause I was talking!

I know what you mean. My son lives with me but the only way we can really communicate if via email. It is the only way I can get him to listen to what I am trying to say without the look that I don't know what I am talking about.

Boy do I understand! I'm CONSTANTLY getting the "hurry up and get to the point" hand signal from my husband! I HATE that...so rude! Thanks for listening to me without making me feel rushed or unimportant!
