I use to make a strong effort not to do it but I have found myself doing it. In my defense though, it mainly happens when I'm already doing something for work online so kinda rude on her part. Other than that I really do try my best to listen.   4951

This is why we no longer use words..we text so everything is in writing. Even if we do talk by accident, it's always followed up by a confirmation text or email. Doing this has proven me right more times than you can imagine. 4951

I can be at my PC with headphones on listening to music and typing away.  My wife stands at the opening to the room and starts talking.  I have no idea what she is saying because I completely ignore her.  If it is important, I'll probably find out later.@Ray:  You are definitely not alone!edited:  What gets me is when I'm looking at her while she's talking and I zone out.  She can tell that I am not paying attention BUT she continues talking! 4951

This doesn't  happen to me when we're face-to-face, but sometimes DH calls me on the phone when I'm doing something else, and I *think* I'm listening, but then he'll ask me a question and I'll realize I have no idea what he just said.  4951

I tell my husband he can stop the blah blah you didn't do by getting it done.
Why do I have to become a stark raving lunatic before he does what he already knows I'll be enraged about if not done?
 
And today is groundhog day.
 
A tinkering man gets the work done without the nagging wife's reminder.
I have told him that for 20 years, I still get yeah, ok.
You never told me to do that.
If I make a honey do list, he tells me he knows what needs done and I'm nagging.
 
I now just do most things myself or call a repair person.
Some things are not worth the stress. 4951

I'm really not a nag, at least I don't think so Emoticon The only thing I've asked of him this week was to meet me at the bottom of the stairs for his food, because I was too sore to go up and down. 4951

Ray, sometimes I make the mistake of asking how her day was at work. She then tells me a story that takes 15-20 minutes and has lots of technical stuff about the code in the software that her company writes and who did what and how it locked out everyone and this and that and.... I have learned to make sure I don't need to use the bathroom badly when I ask or there could be a problem. 4951

@BooBear: I need to start doing this.  DH keeps telling me I haven't told him this or that-drives me crazy!

My wife's not a nag, but she is female and like most females when they are telling a story, they go into great detail.  If she talked to our daughter on the phone, then she will repeat the entire conversation to me, plus she makes a few side trips to some memory that was triggered.Before my older sister died, we would talk on the phone once each week.  I don't think any of those conversations were under 1 hour.  She did 80-90% of the talking.I asked a psychiatrist about this and he said that it's normal.  Women tend to think and talk in details while men usually just summarize and hit the highlights. 4951

@MarT: I certainly can relate!   Debbie used to work at a preK and had lots of women to talk to.  Now that she's retired, I'm her primary outlet for talking.  I keep telling her she needs more girl time.  Her best friend died from cancer several years ago and I think she's afraid of getting too close to another friend.

@Retired_Engineer:
 
I think it's less a gender issue and more of a personality trait. I'm not a very big talker but I like to listen. 4951
