This only happens with people I am fairly comfortable with, and usually only in 1 on 1 scenarios.

I'm never the one that ends the conversation. If it's an interesting topic/or can be analyzed in interesting ways, I will not stop, until the other person exits.

Some people are surprised by this, and I have yet to meet anyone that will keep going for as long as I will, or if they keep going for a while, they will complain about it. Hours will pass and I will not notice.

This is a strong contrast to my online interactions...
Talking is so much easier than writing. Once you are past all the social dynamics anyway.

I only talk too much if the conversation delves into something im knowledgeable about, which I dont do as much anymore bc I realise most people dont really care about what you have to say if its informative. They are more concerned about whether or not kim kardashians ass is real or fake.

Sometimes I take a IRL convo to a dimension that the listener gas little to no interest in but ramble on anyway. Other times I'm a mute and don't speak at all.

Lonely man is always extremely talkative when he finally can talk with someone.

also, I prefer writing than talk, you have more time to think and you can sometimes edit/delete some text before sending

In a circle of friends I can relax and talk quite a lot, but not to the point of talking too much.

I distinguish between talking and writing, it is entirely different for me and I think that the strenght and involvement in the interaction are higher when talking, generally.

If I had someone to talk with more often, that would be the same person I write to, I would prefer to talk to that person.

I over-explain things. "Too much" is hard to define objectively so really it depends on who you're talking to. Can't talk to trees for very long before it becomes "too much".

I can be a talker in some situations but not a lot. What I can be is very winded sometimes. Although I sometimes warn my audience, I can go on and on about a particular topic if asked about it but I am learning to control it. IMO People dont really respect talkers. Life is perverse like that. Talking breeds familiarity and familiarity can breed contempt.

I'm a talker IRL if I really, really like you. I might look like an ENTP in safe company and the University or a warm ESFJ when dealing with burdened people in the Church and the seminary.

conversations are at least 2 way, you're only talking to much when you lose the other participants attention; this is pretty easy to gauge. It's all about finding the right person to talk to and knowing who not to bother with and you'll be golden.

One thing always came to my attention: Aren't others being rude when they interrupt your explanations?

Yep they're indeed rude. However, I often find myself both in the giving and receiving end as well.

I guess its on a case to case basis to see if they're simply being dismissive or honestly wanting to clarify one of your previous statements.

Only if you believe your explanations are more important than whatever it is they have to say or are feeling at that particular moment. Otherwise, no it isn't.

It seems like people just don't give a shit. Sometimes I talk the least of everyone, and then when I have something I feel comfortable talking about, then people ignore me intentionally.

Perhaps they feel awkward with talking to you? They don't have enough experience with talking to you and feel that they're walking on eggshells now that you're opening up.

Or perhaps they simply find your topic out of their league/boring and are poorly communicating that message to you through ignoring you.

Yeah, that might be it. But I also think it has to do with anti-inquisitive natures among people in general. People say the same thing over and over again in the most offensive manner, and then I want to see how something might actually work divorced from people's biases and prejudices. I encourage their pursuits, and they ignore mine.

I know the feeling. I would not assume it intentional even if it feels that way.

I tend to bomb discussions. A small debate of sorts is going on and then I speak and there is either nothing left to be said after I speak or maybe I appalled everyone into speechlessness. IDK

With the right person the discussion can be very fun but it is very rare and usually it is an Ne person.

For everyone else, they are looking for an emotional or Se/Si discussion and I have little interest in what they have to say and they have no interest in the NeTi I have to provide. I am sure I look as bored as they do.

To them that is offensive. You cannot set them apart from what they believe because to them you are showing that you don't accept who they are.
