Sometimes I find myself in the group of 5-6 people and we are having a discussion. It could be at the party or in my discussion group. The problem I encounter is that I am not being noticed.
There is always one or two people who dominate conversation. For example we are just talking and I decicde to ask people a question or make a comment. Then 2 seconds after I open my mouth someone else will start speaking and interrupt me., and I am ignored. Or I am just being ignored even if I had a chance to finish what I was going to say.
I tried to talk louder and sometimes with a pretext like "guys..what do you think about this?" It works better,but I am not sure why certain people in the gruoup are able to dominate conversations so easily.
I have a discussion group for one of my classes,5 females and one other guy. So this guy just fvcks up my speech all the time. I start talking but then he completly ignores my speaking and starts his own thread.
Any advice on how to improve in this situation?
