People who mumble and expect you to understand them.

ROFL... There might not be something wrong with your 'fearing' but there may be a slight problem with your typing. Well if they left the room then I expect they didn't actually want you to know what they were saying. lol Maybe they "did" want you to hear it but they didn't really want it enough. People who want to communicate with you should be looking at you and speaking clearly or if they're not looking at you they should at least be not that far away.

Maybe its a problem with my sheering, you can never tell with these things. Seriously, yeah I think its down to them not wanting to hear it long enough. Or perhaps it is some snide comment. Granted it might not be, but you just have to wonder about these things. If you don't hear them once they have left, who knows what they say since they have long cleared the room.

WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU? WHAT IS WRONG WITH MY FEARING! No seriously, it does go without saying that some people do in fact have better hearing then others. Still while there might be some issues with my hearing, if I'm not the only person who is complaining about some of these people in question, then there might be a problem. Plus, then start talking to me and start trailing off as they leave the room. Kind of seems that they side tracked a bit but that is just me. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

The irony is now people have no time to listen to you. Too occupied they are and I wonder what would happen to them or us when we grow older.

That is a sad fact indeed. If you listen to people, you might actually learn something. If you speak up, you might actually teach someone something. Yet there tends to be a lot of things that are going to fly by unnoticed. Thank your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

Communication is one of those things that require a team effort. If one person or another doesn't do their job, then it fails. One must speak clearly. The other must listen minus biases or distractions. If it does not happen, then there is a huge failure. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well.

Soft spoken people I don't have a problem with, providing they understand that they are soft spoken and might have to move in a little closer, so some people can hear them. There are some people who speak softly in the most deliberate manner possible. That can get on my nerves just a little bit. We all need to communicate and communication is a two way street. Thanks for responding. It is appreciated. Have a nice day.

An intriguing response. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

My rule of thumb is this. I will ask them nicely once, maybe twice. If they don't decide to modify their behavior, then I do figure that what they are going to communicate to me is not important. Or they don't think its important enough to speak up at the very least. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

That is a point that I can see happening. There are a lot of times where there are people who are afraid of the consequences of speaking up. Yet there are many people who don't really take the extra effort to listen to people when they do not speak up all that much. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

Sometimes i dont understand why some people reason in a such stupid and dumb way and then they immediately expect you to understand them especially what they just said, and if u dont understand they get all very angry offended and start fighting,i heard the sentence, but there is no Sense in the sentence, is like if they were mixing the words making no SENSE... causing a BIG STUPID ARGUMENT THINKING THEY ARE STILL RIGHT IN THE BRAIN. BECAUSE THEY ARE LOOKING FOR ARGUMENTS AND FIGHTS AND SOMEONE TO ARGUE FOR RELIEVE WREAK VENT, to give them something to do cause they cant resist the miserable life they have! so they come to BREAK YOURS TOO... the resolution is to keep silent and nod all the times like a wreckless idiot animal dog AND HOPE they dont say "did you understand?"

Yeah if for whatever reason you're not understanding me, I hope that you will clue me. But I expect the same courtesy from you. Otherwise, we are going to have quite the breakdown in communication to say the very least. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

Yeah some people do tend to play that game to say the least. Yet, I must also invoke the, "how much do you want me to hear you" thing. If I have to play a guessing game and after I ask them, they must not really think that what they are saying is important. So why should I? Thank you for your response, it is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

Understood that people really do have issues that might keep them from being very clear. Then there are people that are capable of speaking up but just won't. It does vary quite a bit to be certain.
