You have three options as I see it: 1) Every time they interrupt you, passive aggressively stop talking for the rest of that meet up. 2) Get different friends and ditch your current ones. 3) Take the logical action and talk to them about how the being interrupted and talked over makes you feel and request that they try not to do so. I suggest option 3, followed by option 2 if they disregard your feelings, mock them, or say they will try not to talk over you then proceed to continue doing so without actually trying not to.

I have the same problem! I remember one time, my friends stopped talking to actually listen to me. I was so amazed I thought something had happened!!
