My friend always interrupts me when I speak ...how do I tactfully make a point?

Cindy's answer: You should try to be less rude than they are being..but let someone get carried away if they are speaking passionately. A phrase like okay" I would like to answer that" may help.

Sally's answer: Everyone does this from time to time especially when you get excited about something. If it's happening all the time and really annoying, just interrupt them and say excuse me, can I finish? People don't always know when they're being rude.

Michele's answer: I tend to do this, Interrupt that is, sometimes my mind is going so fast I forget and it's into my head and out of my mouth. I don't mind when people ask me to allow them to finish a thought, and I apologize. But then there are those people who just go on and on and only listen to themselves, that too is rude. Those people you can feel free to interrupt with an apology like, I'm sorry, can I say something?
