I also go miles away during a conversation missing most of what the other person says. I have this technique to deal with old people at work where I repeat the last few words I heard while mimicking the mood the person is showing. (Worry, sadness, etc) Works awesome, lately I've been applying it to personal conversations. Usually the next thing they say jogs me back into it. UGH, better than the constant request for a repeat. I think?
