Just me??
Husband has a hard time “acknowledging” me. He’s a man of few words as it is which took years for me to get used to. I like talking, and whenever I’m telling him a story or just talking in general he won’t respond. When i point it out to him he says “what do you want me to say?” I’m not always looking for him to have a full conversation with me but if I’m talking to him, even if it’s not about something important, i feel like he should give me some type of acknowledgement. I feel dumb when he doesn’t reply, like I’ve just been talking to myself out loud. I’ve told him that it makes me feel dumb and like I’m just bothering him and he says “idk what to tell you, why does it matter if i just say yeah or ok or nod my head. I don’t have to say anything to hear what you’re saying”. Sure ok but i like feeling like I’m not talking to a wall most of the time. We work together and just now i went to tell him to have a good lunch and he fully saw me, didn’t say anything, and ran off to get something for the job he was doing. He couldn’t even say “brb”?! He did call and apologize for that but i mean cmon. Am i being over sensitive lol? Does anyone else’s spouse do this?
