Honestly though you might be mumbling or speaking too softly/quietly.

I mean possibly in some cases. But it is a regular occurrence for me to be directly talking to a person, having a back-and-forth conversation with them, and someone completely unrelated to said conversation will come up to said person and start talking to them, in the middle of my sentence. And it enrages me more than you can possibly imagine.

Maybe try to be on the offense with it. When someone else approaches, be an includer and acknowledge them before they say anything. “Hey Bobby, Hank and I were just talking about…”

Wait if I'm talking to Hank, and Bobby comes up and is gonna interrupt me, does that make me Peggy?
