Is my DH right?

[Hanover31]

Hi all,
We’ve recently moved away to a tiny village, Ive left my friends & 2 years in, they’ve come to visit me 2-3 times in total! I have no family & I WFH. So essentially I have no one to talk to other than DH. This week my DH has had a serious chat with me, he basically said hes my husband, not my girlfriend. He wants me to stop talking about the office gossip/ shopping/ reality tv stuff etc etc. He really wants to hear about how my day was but I need to cut out all that girly nonsense stuff. He said I need to find new friends to fill that void. Is he right? Hes quite a blokey bloke so I get he doesnt want to hear me ponder what shoes to buy but I feel like crap. I just think he should want to hear about anything & everything.. honest answers pls?

He is male so the main consensus on here will be whatever he does is wrong, we can't comment on the way he has said it we only have your version

We speak of some things we are both into but not in depth, I am not interested in every detail about football he is not interested in my tv viewing in detail

So it depends

essentially I have no one to talk to other than DH

This is your main problem and the one you should go about solving.

One person cannot be your only outlet. It's too much and too intense and not healthy for either of you.

It's not about ringfencing certain subjects. I think in any relationship there's an extent to which you'll tolerate your partner wittering on about something they love that you have no interest in, but only an extent.

I can talk to DP for a while about my niche interests and he's even become a bit interested, but full-on in-depth discussion for hours is not an option for him - I have friends I met through that interest for that. I'll listen to the rough outline of his office politics but for the full-on dissection of who said what to whom, he has colleagues for that - not me.

I've gently explained. I don't need to know every interaction at work, it's too much. Very different her talking through an issue and me giving an older perspective. I don't want to talk about her friends who are making mistakes with the men they are getting pregnant to. I don't care what gets said in pubs between 24-27 year olds. Go through the menopause and you have less tolerance for bullshit and people causing their own issues. She expected to phone me and talk about other people for a good two hours.
. I have three DD's and haven't sacrificed myself on the alter of motherhood. I have her children while she goes on holiday and nights out, well that still being your own person, extents to me as well. If you aren't telling your DD's that, then they are the poor ones.
