I definitely feel this at times. I’ll understand what someone’s saying with the first sentence or so and know where they’re going and have a response formulated… and then there’s another paragraph that doesn’t affect the point, just expository stuff or context and the like, all the while my brain is screaming to continue with the core of the conversation and get the info across. It’s a low level sort of agony to have information come across so slowly when my brain is constantly trying to be on the move. It sucks because it does feel 100% entirely selfish and I know that and do my best to deal with it and just listen, but it doesn’t change how painful it really can feel sometimes. I think maybe a part of it is I know just how fleeting my thoughts are, so if I don’t get it across immediately when it’s relevant I’ll likely just entirely forget it. And oh man when someone else’s paragraph continues beyond the relevance of your point and you’re left trying to figure out if you should just blurt out what you wanted to say when you can while you remember it or if you should just drop it and continue the conversation they were moving onto… conversations be tough sometimes
