My girlfriend thinks I'm inconsiderate because she doesn't listen to me?

Question

Every time I try to talk to her, she ALWAYS talks over me instead of listens. I walked out on her tonight but am considering the future of this relationship. What should I do?

Answer 1

get a can and fill it with pennies, everytime she interrupts you shake it.

hey! it worked on my dogs barking problem ; )

try it, and keep peace

Answer 2

Polietly ask her to not talk for 2 min., in that time, explain to her how you feel. If she resists or argues  walk out and wait until she calls you. When she does most likely she will listen.

Or you could simply keep talking and eventually she will have to stop talking over you.

Answer 3

Communication is essential. Walking out gets you away from the situation but doesn't address the issue. Can you get her to agree to some basic ground rules that you both will stick to? For example, no accusations, no interruptions, hear each other out and answer constructively?  Good luck.
