[quote=Anonymous]OP - my dad is like this. He will comment on a stranger's shirt or baseball cap while we're waiting to be seated at a restaurant. We'll all be seated and drinks will arrive and he's still in the lobby chatting. He has no sense that the other person is just being polite or that we're waiting for him. Any time my parents come to DC (the big city) I have to give them a lecture about not speaking to strangers. My dad, early 60s, will talk to any telemarketer or old men from church that call about his volunteer stuff. He won't talk to my mom for more than 5 min, but will stay on the phone for over an hour. He gives money to people with sob stories, buys any fundraising thing that comes to the door and over tips in restaurants - think 30% on a normal meal instead of 20-25%. He is very naive and thinks everyone is always telling the truth.

There is nothing wrong with it, except that some times it is embarrassing and annoying. His mother, my grandmother, was like this and it got worse and worse as she got older. We had to take her checkbook away because she kept paying to enter sweepstakes (some sort of scam?) and buying things over the phone.

The only difference is that my dad has ALWAYS been like this. If this is new for your husband, he needs a physical ASAP. It could be a medication he's taking or a brain aneurism or something. [/quote]
