[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think we all have things about our spouse that are a bit cringe. My spouse talks - a lot. Not about himself but if you mention a vacation he will ask you 20 questions about it. Not in a creepy way, he is just genuinely interested. He barely drinks alcohol and yet we’re often the ones to close down a party. Sometimes I worry people are trapped in a conversation with him. When we’re hosting, I worry he doesn’t circulate and spends an entire party talking to 1 or 2 people.

Here is what I do. Nothing. If we’re at a wedding or other long event with appetizers, I will bring him a small plate of food or a drink every once in a while to help him recognize the passage of time. He will literally start talking 15 feet inside the door and not move for 2 hours otherwise. The people he is talking to are adults. They can end the conversation and move on if they want to. He is my spouse, but his behavior does not reflect on me. Also it’s 90% my hang up as a more shy, introverted person. People often go out of their way to tell me how nice and interesting he is.

This is my husband, but he DOES talk about himself. People have remarked to me on it. But like you, PP, I don't view it as a reflection on me; I'll smile and say, yeah, he can really get going on that topic. I try to avoid him at gatherings for this very reason. [/quote]
