Does your significant other like talking with you at the end of the day?

We’re both chatty people so talk non stop, a few of the things we do which might help you is we don’t watch much tv we have it on for 30 mins while we eat but that’s all. Even if only one of us is cooking tea, we both hang out in the kitchen. And when we’re in the car we don’t have music on loud and just talk. I can’t really give tips to help, but that’s what our day to day looks like x

It depends on the day but a lot of times we do sit and talk at least for a little while. What kinds of things do you talk about? I noticed if I talk too much about "housekeeping" things (appointments, bills, events etc) I sometimes lose my husband if he's had a long day. But we like to talk about other things too, like current events and philosophical issues. We're also both readers and he's in school so there are times we just sit together and read.

We both do talk but it tends to just be about what has happened in our day. He rants about work and I listen to all the juicy gossip. I tell him everything new our daughter has done, what I’m planning on doing tomorrow. Sometimes when he’s had a bad day at work he comes home, I cook and clean up and then we relax and watch films together. Sometimes it’s easier for us to chill out other times I crave deeper conversations but I already knew when I got with him he’s not big on deep convos so I don’t expect them a lot. Life happens and we all have to work with challenges but relationships should involve talking and responding. If he’s isn’t mentally there and is miles away then couples therapy or maybe he could adjust his hours or find a job better suited to his needs so he can be present for you

I am a talker with “my people”, my whole family is. My fiancé came from a family of the opposite. When we go visit, we’ll be there for hours yet only talk maybe an hour or two. They will text even though they’re in the same room/house. So, when we first got together, it was tough. It was literally like talking to a wall cause he couldn’t grasp the idea of chitchat or how to do it. We both have some mental health issues (anxiety is the biggest one) and with 3 kiddos and one of which is disabled, ages 3, 19 months, then 5 months, we can get quite drained some days. He’s gotten better at chatting with me, but there definitely are days where he is shutdown by the time the kids are down and vice versa. We make it a goal to at least talk about our day, even if we are shot by the end. It isn’t for everyone, but if he comes home kinda quiet and grumpy cause he’s physically wiped, I sometimes offer a nap so he perks back up. His physical exhaustion always impacts him mentally so he is quiet.

Depends on if I want to talk or not. He gets home between 2-5am so somedays I just want to sleep and not b bothered

My honey has a similar schedule to your s/o. I work from home and the baby stays with me. Most days we talk throughout the day and also at home. About various things. We send videos and memes too throughout the day. Sometimes he tunes me out. Sometimes I just want to read my book in peace. I think there is a good balance. But we chat. He’s one of my best friends and I tell him everything. He shares a lot with me too.
