Dear Mohit, Query raised by you is very pertinent to VI community. In fact all of us face this kind of issues on day to day basis. My views in this regard are:
1. All my friends and colleagues do take good care of me. They often take my name before addressing me. Normally when I feel that one to one conversation with me is over I tend to look down indicating that eye contact is over. In case somebody wants to address a point to me then the person addresses me explicitly by calling my name. It may be noted that eye contact is very important for one to one conversion and the sighted person shall definitely call you or hint you in case he / she feels that eye to eye contact is not there. 2. During group interactions many a times it happens that more than one people are talking and group may or may not be hearing to all. so whether other person is listening or not does not really matter. 3. On one of two occasions my friends have gesture me by pressing my hand that I should stop speaking. My advise is don't think too much about such issues.
