I'm like that when I've actively listened because I know what I'm like.
Just blink when they've finished speaking and it's all instantly forgotten.
Huh? Sorry, I was just thinking about the encounter with a girl yesterday, what I want for dinner, what I have to do at work, if I should work from home this week all while playing a christmas song in my head.
It's usually quite obvious when someone didn't understand what I said but acts as if they did and I respect them less for lying about it.
I get how they feel - I'm the same way. I just don't lie about it. I make them repeat it untill I do get it.
I make them repeat it untill I do get it.
I've been yelled at over that before. At this point I've stopped giving a fuck, you're gonna repeat it until it makes sense to me.
I stop the talking and tell them to text/email me, or I write it down if neither of those are possible.
