[quote=Anonymous]OP, you have my honest sympathy, but can I offer a different perspective, and one against the idea that his behavior needs to be corrected? I am the daughter of a man who sounds similar to your husband, and married to a guy with a similar temperament, too. Both my dad and my husband are devoted to their immediate families and some solitary hobbies, like reading and exercise. They're just introverts, and have neither the social graces or give-a-damn to small talk or show interest in people other than those they are genuinely close to. Caveat: Treating you disrespectfully or talking down to you--his spouse, his equal--isn't okay, and it warrants therapy or a class or whatever if it's more than a rare thing. But as far as how he treats people outside your family, that's on him.[/quote]
