The many gifts of awkward silence
I've learned to let them cut me, and then remain completely silent until specifically asked to talk again. The second time it happens, they figure it out. The third time rarely comes.

What if they just keep talking, using up all the available time, and you’re never asked to continue?

Then my point was not going to be considered anyway. That is typically the case only with exes.

Whenever I bring my axes into the conversation people seem to not want to make a point anymore.

Yes, an axe should be a blade, not a point!
