[quote=Anonymous]Op back. Thanks everyone this has been so helpful. DH was upset but he did not yell. He was hurt more than anything. It would kill him to think we find his stories (and therefore him by extension) boring. As I said he grew up with a parent who called himself a “raconteur” by way of excusing his insanely long stories. That parent was definitely HFA. My DH is not, but in some ways idolized his brilliant but very socially awkward parent, so emulates him in this one way. I love the suggestions of saying, “we want to hear the rest but let’s pause for a minute or two.” And also, “let’s save that story til dinner is over or til we’ve heard about everyone else’s day.” Many thanks.[/quote]
