I love Aries, don't get me wrong. In fact, I'm surrounded by them. Many of my closest/best friends are aries. They are kind of like the spice to my life; they provide me entertainment and bring out the crazier/sillier side of me.

However, the one thing I can't seem to get over... is how they can just interrupt people in the middle of the conversation... and more than once.

I'm often trying to tell them something when in the middle of the conversation, they'll bring up another subject or get distracted by something. It drives me insane lol. I usually try to continue the conversation, but after a certain point, it just seems pointless. I guess it just makes me feel like they don't really care about what I have to say...

This annoying trait is unfortunately not limited to Aries. I have no idea how many times I get interrupted any given day. I tend to speak in a low tone and manner, and people just seem to not think that I need to finish what I am saying. The only consistency I find in the people who do this is general immaturity, and rudeness.

Now if general immaturity and rudeness is a trait seen in Aries, then your point is taken. My point is that I think the world is full of childish, rude people.

You're right it's probably not a sign thing, and I shouldn't generalize since there have been people of other signs who have done this (even virgos like me). I suppose I've just seen this a lot from aries people. I agree though that it's a bothersome trait. I'm not wildly outspoken myself, so I can be overlooked sometimes. Sometimes I just let it go if the topic wasn't that important.

A quibble? a gripe perhaps?

Bringing up a totally different subject while you are midstream sounds like more of an ADD/Gemini thing.Not to mention rude. We must try to avoid talking to people like that.

If a fire sign interrupts (well if it is me) it is usually because I am wholeheartedly agreeing with what you are talking about (not changing subjects) - not meant as an interruption but more as an encouragement "go on, tell me more, I am with you" type thing. Also worth noting is that we enjoy interacting/friendly banter with our friends and like to keep the ball rolling.

I must say it is something I try to be aware of and not do.
I didn't realise it was so annoying because I take no offense when it happens to me.

Definitely something to work on - thanks for the tip Candeh!

Perhaps they're just really eager to say what is on their mind, before they forget it? I do this sometimes 🙂. Although I'm only on the Aries cusp, I still feel some Aries traits. Mercury in Aries as well.



Yes some people are like that but it's usually not frequent; with others it's like a compulsive thing(thats what gets irritating).

I've got my mercury in Aries too and I'm not too outspoken (probably that I'm a cancer rising with Sag moon). I dunno lol

Maybe you hang around with Aries enough to happen to see it happen. But yeah, I hate being conversationally interrupted as well. I myself give 100% when someone speaks to me and I expect the same in return.

Despite what my DXP ramblings might suggest, I usually don't talk much unless it is important so interrupt at your own peril.
If I do get interrupted I generally just stop and don't continue.
If you don't want to hear me tell you about the parking gestapo heading for your car or your computer being on fire (actual incidents) then who am I to keep badgering you?

And yes, I get IMMENSE pleasure out of people suffering the consequences of their own bad manners.
