[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP. I'm sorry you're experiencing that. It IS super rude.

Two little points I want to make:

1) Your DH may be a selfish guy, but a lot of people really struggle with context switching at the end of the day. I know I do.

2) It actually means a lot that he is trying to be polite and ask you about your day. In fact, that kind of contradicts the selfish hypothesis. A truly selfish man would not make an effort at all (and many don't).

That said, I get how you want this to change.

Here is my suggestion to you:

Walk out of the room when he stops listening. Don't be angry about it. Just go start doing something else.

And I also think you should make an effort to be a bit more surprising and mysterious.

Married domestic life is boring as hell. Can you really blame him that he isn't super interested in what you ate for lunch? Try having something unexpected to discuss. Please don't be insulted by that - it's not personal. Everyone struggles with enjoyable conversation when married (especially with kids).
