Because the person who is talking does all the talking in the world. If they would let the other person talk as well. More people would enjoy listening to each other.

People dont listen to people because they dont want to hear what they say

in what context?
most people selectively hear what will confirm what they already believe to be true.
few are willing to sit and listen to other ideas. fewer let new ideas enter.
its a defense/survival glitch in evolution...
that's why both ignorance and bigotry are so hard to change. and new, better ideas take so long to get accepted.
also sometimes its becasue people are selfish or uncaring or busy.

personaly....I have an issue with this one, myself....
I have a tendancy to "drift in thought..." I can look you dead in the face....& not hear a word you say.... It's not on purpose...it's just something I do.... & it's mostly due to the conversation....IF you don't grab my attention with in the first few seconds of talking....you have lost me completely.....
I may flow through the conversation & say words like: yep, ok...uh huh... yeah......
but.....thats it & I wont have any idea of the actual body of what was talked about.

It's all noise to me until I filter out the good stuff, then I never know where it came from.

They might be having problems and thinking about things, or just be ignorant people
tHey also might not agree with that subject.

BECAUSE THEY ARE WRAPPED UP IN THEMSELVES AND REALLY DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANYTHING FORM OTHERS. THEY JUST WANT TO TALK ABOUT ALL THAT THEY HAVE OR DO.
