Re: a general question to married ladies..
My husband is fairly quite.however.I'm the opposite so I tend to talk for hours.and he just nods.lol
Its cool no biggie. My parents are like u two.
Re: a general question to married ladies..
Yes, the same and I hate it.
Re: a general question to married ladies..
My husband works 7 nights a week so hardly c each other properly. But when we do, even though he is very talkative with his friends, he's not very talkative with me, when we talk its about friends or kids other than that he sits on Facebook, is on the phone or watches the news. Rest of the time he spends with the kids. But it doesn't really bother me as I'm so busy with kids n housework n he deserves his relaxation time as he works so hard.
Re: a general question to married ladies..
Yep, sounds like my marriage lol. If there is something to discuss, or if we actually want to make a comment on something, we talk. Otherwise he's usually doing his own thing and I'm doing mine. My parents are the same way….can go hours without talking to one another at home.
Re: a general question to married ladies..
lol...good to know im not alone ;)
Re: a general question to married ladies..
talk about politics, religion, sports and technology and you will see different side of them.
Re: a general question to married ladies..
^oh and i m not at all interested in these things..its better to stay quiet then ;)
Re: a general question to married ladies..
a quiet husband is a wise man. a talkative wife is a normal woman! she can chirp as much as she desires. :)
Re: a general question to married ladies..
I am not going to call it normal. Common yes, but not normal. What is the use of a relationship when you dont find time to talk.
My husband is not a talker so if I really want to get him talking I ask him something about politics.
That always works like a charm. He will talk to me for hourssss!
Re: a general question to married ladies..
My husband is no chatterbox like I am myself (I love to talk) but over the years he only speaks to me most about whatever…either sports or cars, after he gets in from work we also talk each night how our day was like. I tell him about my day or what the kids did, what I have prepared for dinner…just small things I show him if I have bought anything that day or try it on to show him 
But we have children tot and quiet often we are not given the chance to talk during the days since the kids just scream over us, but we make sure to have a chat almost every night.
I can also remember the time we were newly weds we watched TV together or even movies, spending time together can also help the couple bond with each other…Just keep at it and Insh-Allah you both will be talking non-stop 
Re: a general question to married ladies..
We usually sit in evening talk about whole day wht i did about his topic. Our baby's day wht dhe did. About frnds n families back home . Sports .politics. the next day plans. He reads a lot so if he likes anything he will share tht wth me even we both are doing our work we keep talking. N after baby more n more talking. It increased. There is always something new i need to tell him
Re: a general question to married ladies..
I work from home and he also works from home 4 days a week so we talk a lot during the whole day. Luckily we are in the same field so we discuss work issues during the day, have chit chat during lunch prep and lunch it self, watch sports (cricket matches, tennis etc.), go to the gym together.
I guess the only time he's away is on alternate Friday nights when he goes out for a boys night other then that we do every thing together or try to enjoy each other's interests lol. He was not a fan of TV series but now he plans for the weekly Walking Dead or GOT episodes. I was not much into football but he's a die hard fan so now we have have super bowl parties at our place lol
Re: a general question to married ladies..
talk about politics, religion, sports and technology and you will see different side of them.
Exactly!! we talk about everything under the sky and learnt a lot about each other in past 2 years just because of talking
Have some common interests and you will have a lot to talk about.
For begum and I, we always talked a lot, anything from cars, to travel, movies, restaurants, decor, sports, current events, work stuff ..you name it.
But we are comfortable with silence too. Long days, time with kids, sometimes we sit in the same room doing our own thing and not talking. She needs her space I need mine, no worries.
PS: I am not a married lady but crashed the thread anywat
Re: a general question to married ladies..
One sided conversations on market valuations.
Re: a general question to married ladies..
hmm its not that..we also watch movies/dramas together,,,he tells me about his job problems or any interesting everyday thing related to job,at times we discuss families or people or general discussions but then there are times we are at home and sitting together for hours and we have absolutely nothing to talk about:/...or he is sitting in an other room with his laptop/mobile and i come to other room with my own laptop to kill time..actually i hate those moments..i get very bored and feel lonely..may be thats how it is with everyone and i am being too sensitive about it..presently these are those days going on lol!
I think electronic free weekends or evenings are a fantastic idea that you guys should try. Both of you need alone time and how much of that is needed varies by person so generally it's not an issue.
With two kids, busy work and all there are evenings that both of is will be in the same room laming on laptops and tablets. At times it has been more for one or the other and we do make sure to let the other person know, by words or by actions, which include nerf balls, cold cans, water guns.. You name it.
Re: a general question to married ladies..
I know question was directed toward married ladies but hey…what the…so, as long as he is not “ignoring” you and just sticking to his nature i.e. non-talkative, there is nothing to worry about. Everyone is wired differently. In most of the cases, hubby/wife talk more freely on many topics when they are among friends and less when they are alone together. Men are mostly quiet in nature and you have to pull them out of their shell to talk.
Try to find common topic in fact just step into his domain. Sometimes, find a common activity such as cleaning house together, cooking etc etc and that helps the conversions going. I and sure this will help else just start murmuring “khamoshiaan gungunay lageen…tanhieyaan muskuraney lageen…”
PS: I just finished chatting (for about 15 min) with my begum with no particular topic just because I asked for a cup of tea …but hey, it tastes good
