You don't have to prove anything to anyone in life, at the same time don't give them the 'power' to stop you from living and being yourself. Nothing would bother them more than for you to be defying odds, proving them wrong, being strong and just being yourself right? ;)
OR
Just avoid those rude or negative type people in your life. You do not need their respect, they are insignificant.
OR
Be firm and talk over them back! and walk away to make a point.

I don't have an answer for you, I just wanted to say I am with you on this subject. I am the same way, I will be talking in what I consider my comfortable voice and then I seem to always get interrupted by the louder people and so on the negative side to this, I tend to not hang out with many people, actually I am quite a hermit because of this, not trying to get pity just telling it like it is..Just to add, I like your saying on your profile.

Hang in there, clods that talk over you have a problem (they are in love with their own voice and monopolize conversations), you really can't get out of these situations. When you are in them, remember that what you have to say IS important and you deserve and have a right to be heard. Interrupt them if you have to.
