Am I too sensitive when people don't seem to listen?
I find it hard to talk to others if I feel like they're not listening. I often interpret it as them not finding me interesting or fun to listen to and then I become quiet or dissatisfied. For example, I'm very sensitive when someone looks away when I'm talking, gets distracted by their phone, doesn't ask follow-up questions or comment on what I've said.
Sometimes I think my sensitivity is justified, that I interpret situations and people correctly. But, I can also wonder if I'm judging others too harshly and making it worse for myself in relationships and conversations. Anyone who recognizes themselves or has thoughts on how to handle this?
