[quote=Anonymous]You have an introvert-extrovert dynamic and that is common. He fell in love with your spirit of fun and went along with all of the things you wanted to do early in your relationship because it was a breath of fresh air in his life. I know this because this is how I felt about my husband, the fun extrovert (who is actually frequently crabby at home but that is a discussion for our therapist). I handle myself pretty well in most social situations but sometimes I am tired and not in the mood and will either sit with my book and look grumpy (I'm not!) or worse, sit in the car and wait, or make everybody leave early because I'm tired and want to go home. The alternative, forcing myself to be like my husband, ends in frustration, resentment, exhaustion, and an explosion of bad emotions later. So it is not an option. You both have to compromise. And talk about it. But it's not an uncommon dynamic. He's not a killjoy, he just wants to read his book.[/quote]
