It really annoys me when you tell a story or something, and someone goes like "Oh, are you talking to me?" For some reason this seems to happen to me only after I have been talking for a couple minutes. I hate how you have to say "No I was talking to the uh... tree stump" or say the whole story over. Or you can say "Yeah, but nevermind" but that makes you seem like a babbling baboon.
EDIT: Small change.

Ouch.

I get annoyed by people who think that I'm not paying attention just because I don't stare at them for the whole time while they are talking. Like if i'm looking away 15-20 seconds or so they're like "OMFG YOU'RE NOT LISTENING ARE YOU!?!?".

Uh that actually sounds pretty retarded when I re-read it, but I mean when you talk to someone for like 10-15 minutes and you look away just a bit and they freak out :p

I get that from my gf, she would like listen listen and then in a main point of a story she starts talking to her friends..... God i hate that! So I sometimes do that to her on purpose
Oh, and shouting "THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION" helps, at least for you

Sounds like you tell incredibly boring stories and people can not stay focused. Try to not be a boring person.

I hate it when people don't write concisely. This happens a lot on TL. It's possible you don't speak concisely, so people lose interest in what you're saying
