Hocus Focus!! Do people tell you that you are Focusing?

Post Reply New Topic

I get told by my family members that I am Focusing when im bringing up something I liked or that I watched and repeat myself over and over again on the same thing. Do you guys get similar impressions by others as well?

Trying saying "shut up". Nah, tell them you need to concentrate

sometimes people will comment on how much i concentrate when i get "chaught up"
if i talk about something i find interesting i will immediately change character from quite introverted to quite extroverted.

Sometimes, but it's never true. I don't talk about things I like usually, I don't know how.

I can talk about things that 1) other people are talking about or 2) that I've been talking about with someone else before but when I talk about what I want to talk about, it's usually fairly short.

So, when I do my best to talk without letting the other person have a word in, it's to stop them from talking because I can't answer them if the ask more, I don't understand them or the conversation is too difficult for another reason.

People can't tell and will assume that I must now be doing a monologue and that I accidentally ignore them.

No, it's called "doing it on purpose". When I admit that I don't understand, people just go on and on and on to try to make me understand, then seem to get frustrated with me.

When I'm out and about.

I got called nuts the other day when my teenage son saw what I had done in mine craft.

In the workplace it gets noticed, it is a positive trait. As long as you are focusing on your work of course.

I don't...understand this post.

Other times people will say I am dwelling on something and or going on and on. LOL i get rather confused at times sometimes people tell me I should focus on a subject then I do that, I get told to stop I am focusing too much. The world is such a confusing place.

Nah, most of the time people tell me the oppisite - they tell me to "snap out of it and pay attention!".
