It just makes me feel like the other person is wasting my time by not hearing properly.

Maybe they weren't ready to hear you out, jerk.

Then maybe they should just leave and come back when they are ready.

Some people just want to chill without anguish of being accosted by the masses.

and some of us just can't hear :(

I hate repeating myself and I hate when people repeat themselves. YET for some reason, when I go "what?" meaning I want to know what exactally your talking about, they just repeat what they just said not moving the conversation at all. Idiots!

i get stuck on the repeating things back to people i should really start recording my lists or maybe just writing stuff down...nah

I cannot hear ;_;

I say something like "huuh?" after every thing that someone tells me.

My dad says the only people who can't hear are the one's clinically deaf, Most people today just listen.

I think my cousin who has 50% normal hearing in both ears hears and listens better than anyone else I know, but then again, it's prolly due to the fact she has to try to figure out what someone's saying.

That happens to me a lot at work too. I'm a cashier at a big shop, so I get loads of different people coming to buy stuff. I love accents, but I feel bad asking people to repeat stuff. >_<

On the other hand, I don't mind repeating stuff I say because...sometimes I talk too fast when excited, and some people get confused by my English accent. >_>

xD

I like apples..:)

i space out, so anybody that knows me knows to only repeat the last half. i know i posted this before....

If you ask my mom to repeat something, she repeats it like she's talking to a retarded 5 year old. D: I mean, it DOES convey what she said! And she doesn't MEAN it like that, it just sounds like that to me, but it really really ticks me off ;;

My dad always likes to pretend he doesn't hear me when I say something and makes me me repeat it for him like he's some 70 year old, crotchety elderly man. And then laughs when I say it over and over. It's gotten to the point where if he says he doesn't hear me the first time I stop talking, but then he just keeps going, "What? Wait a minute...what? What did you say? Huh? Hmm? Huh? What?"

I always repeat the last thing I heard when I'm not paying attention to someone, which happens quiet often.
