Not getting a chance to speak

So I try and be social and up my social skills by taking to people and learning subtle cues. But I'm noticing this phenomenon where done people I hang out with will talk and talk and talk and not give me a turn.

I wait for a pause in conversation, but it's difficult with these people because they just don't. Stop. Talking. Like I get a breath to say what I want which is 0.02 seconds before they're right back at it. And then I'll forget it is I was going to say. Which leaves me frustrated.

At some point I either walk away feeling left out or i.just quit participating all together.

Is it my fault that some people won't let me get a word in edgewise? Should I be more assertive? Help?

What would cause this issue all of a sudden?

Or water was clear yesterday morning, but all of a sudden turned this weak tea color. What could be the cause of this all of a sudden?

Some things to note:

-We are on well water

-it only happens on the cold side

-we keep running the water and the color isn't improving

*I took this picture this morning as I had errands to run yesterday afternoon when I came back from work

-our filter for said water has never (I don't think) been changed

-well was last maintenanced in 2018, due to a wire malfunction, unrelated to the brown water incident.

-faucet isn't "spitting" when turned on
