[quote=Anonymous]I have experienced similar--my job in office is a lot of interaction and pretty busy, I do a fair amount of travel as well, give public talks, fundraising,etc. DH works from home mostly writing and often has hours of free time in which to think, read, and hang out.. He is often eager to discuss things he's read and, I think, kind of lonely and misses social interaction, whereas I want to decompress. We talked about this delta and now the routine is that I come home, and hopefully we have figured out dinner in advance (who is doing what) and kid duty (driving).  Sometimes I have a glass of wine, or a bath, or sometimes take a few minutes to change,and we have dinner, and then after dinner we set aside time to catch up on our days and discuss stuff. Sometimes I come home full of energy and want to talk, so we do, but he understands that just because I need a little down time does not mean I am not interested in his day or what's happening.

for the OP I can't tell if its just timing, or that you dont care, in general. The former you should be able to discuss calmly and find a solution, the latter is a bigger issue. [/quote]
