    Also annoying though are people who think they “get it”, stop listening and be interruptive after a few words, and totally miss the crucial part that comes later.

    Other neurodivergent people are hard to hang out with, except for sharing our grievances in memes :-)

        Sometimes context is important!

        Or

        Context is important sometimes! (If you want the point first)

          That is a beautiful bit of word play there to show a point succinctly. Love it, well done!

            But then they think they heard the only important part already and miss the context which equally matters.

              Its not prefacing it with a summary, its letting them know you have a point at the end they should wait for.

              I actually prefer the type of conversation that goes back and forth and tangents, but there is a place for more long form cohesive ideas, and you should wait to hear it all before speaking.

      There is a whole house of people I know like that. I visited for Labor Day, and people were constantly talking over each other. They wonder why I don’t visit too often anymore.
