1. 1

    If something obtrudes, it pushes into view or into a talk where it is not wanted. You can obtrude an opinion on people; a memory can obtrude itself — it comes into your mind whether you asked it to or not. The feeling is always a bit rude or unwelcome: the thing is thrusting itself forward. This is a rather formal, slightly old-fashioned verb. Most people would say “butt in,” “force on someone,” or “push in.” You will meet the cousin words and unobtrusive much more often than this verb itself. Though actually, writers still like it for thoughts and feelings that will not stay in the background — grief, a smell, a doubt can obtrude, and that use is not about a person being rude, only about something forcing its way in.
